The principle of IABP technology is reflected here, utilizing purely physical effects. During the patient's cardiac diastole, the balloon is inflated with helium, blocking ninety to ninety-five percent of the arterial lumen. This increases blood pressure at the aortic root, enhances diastolic pressure, boosts coronary perfusion flow, and improves myocardial blood supply, facilitating cardiac function. Before cardiac systole, the balloon deflates, thereby reducing aortic pressure, decreasing the heart's afterload, reducing resistance to cardiac ejection, and ultimately lowering myocardial oxygen consumption.
These numerous effects combined make IABP technology possess incomparable unique advantages over other treatment methods.
