However, information on its efficacy and safety in patients with heartfailure remains limited. Case presentation A 43-year-old man with a body mass index of 41 kg/m 2 was admitted to our hospital for acute heartfailure due to dilated cardiomyopathy. No adverse events were observed during B-SES.
Despite being a hearttransplantation candidate, she declined revascularization and sought alternative treatments for angina, dyspnea, and daily activity limitations. Not only did EECP improve the patient's angina and functional status, but it also enhanced her cardiacfunction.
The DRAIN-HF study will evaluate the Aortix percutaneous mechanical circulatory support (pMCS) technology in patients with acute decompensated heartfailure (ADHF) who are unresponsive to standard medical therapy. The Aortix pump demonstrated promising results to help off-load fluid and improve kidney function.
