Pre-operative intra aortic balloon pumps in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting

Abstract: Evidence suggests that preoperative IABP may have a beneficial effect on mortality and morbidity in specific high risk patient groups undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting, however there are many problems with the quality, validity and generalisability of the trials. However, the available evidence is not robust enough to extend the use of IABP to truly elective, high risk patients. Defining more precisely which patient groups may benefit would be the challenge for the future.

“…1021 In contrast, its routine use in subjects who are not thought to be high risk has not been demonstrated. 1027 Some myocyte necrosis often occurs during and immediately after CABG, caused by cardiac manipulation, inadequate myocardial protection, intraoperative defibrillation, or acute graft failure. A determination of the frequency and magnitude with which postoperative myonecrosis occurs has been difficult.…”

“…Nevertheless, studies also reported that no survival advantage was found in the prophylactic application of an IABP in hemodynamically stable, high-risk patients undergoing bypass grafting, as opposed to the placement of an IABP on an as-needed basis during or after surgery [7,8]. Although the practicability of an IABP has been extensively investigated in the past 3 decades, the timing of application of an IABP remained uncertain in high-risk patients undergoing OPCABG [21,22]. In this study, patients in the IABP group had significantly lower incidence rates of postoperative LCOS, and respiratory as well as renal failure compared to patients in the control group, which indicates that preincision use of an IABP helped to preserve the cardiopulmonary and renal function.…”

“…The definition of "high risk" varies between these studies and include older age, low ejection fraction or symptomatic congestive heart failure, injury to the ECA, the second CABG surgery or urgent / emergency [11]. In recent Cochrane meta-analysis [33] observed that the evidence suggests that preoperative IABP may have beneficial effect on mortality and morbidity in specific high-risk groups undergoing CABG, however, there are many problems with the quality , reliability and validity of the tests. The available evidence is not robust enough to extend the use of the IABP for elective high-risk patients: define more precisely which groups of patients who may benefit will be the challenge for the future.…”
