A multivariate and retrospective analysis of the impact of intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation in Open-Heart surgery.

ABSTRACT: Background The use of intraaortic balloon pump (IABP) effectively reduces left ventricular afterload and significantly increases coronary perfusion pressure by raising aortic diastolic pressure. This study examined the short and medium-term outcomes of 22,540 adult cardiac surgical patients requiring an IABP. Methods From 2009 to 2018, 1114 patients (4.94%) undergoing open-heart surgery at a single tertiary cardiac hospital received IABP support and were included in this retrospective study. They were categorized into pre-operative (Group A, n = 577), intra-operative (Group B, n = 475), and post-operative (Group C, n = 62) IABP insertion groups. Results Cardiogenic shock occurred in 11.2% of cases, mainly in Group A. Hemodynamic instability (38.8%) drove IABP use in Groups A and C, while d
