Abstract
'For many reasons clinicians hesitate to employ mechanical devices of unproved efficacy except in the most critically ill patients and then only as a desperate measure. These approaches accounted for a substantial lag time between intra-aortic balloon pump availability and widespread utilization. Ventricular assist devices, recently approved for initial clinical trials, face the same dilemmas'. Norman, 1977.1
