  • Title: Two-year outcomes after enhanced external counterpulsation for stable angina pectoris (from the International EECP Patient Registry [IEPR]).
    Author: Michaels AD, Linnemeier G, Soran O, Kelsey SF, Kennard ED.
    Journal: Am J Cardiol; 2004 Feb 15; 93(4):461-4. PubMed ID: 14969624.
    Abstract:
    We assessed the long-term outcomes of enhanced external counterpulsation in relieving angina and improving the quality of life in a large cohort of patients with chronic angina pectoris. Seventy-three percent had a reduction by > or =1 angina class at the end of treatment, and 50% reported an improvement in the quality-of-life assessment after enhanced external counterpulsation; these results were sustained at 2-year follow-up.
