  • Title: [Means of improving the operational safety of balloon-pump counter-pulsation apparatus].
    Author: Super NA, Karel'skiĭ VV.
    Journal: Med Tekh; 1978; (4):53-8. PubMed ID: 713757.
    Abstract:
    The apparatus of assisted circulation, in particular those intended for counter-pulsation with the pump-balloon, as concerns their reliability and safety to units whose failure presents immediate danger for the patient's life. An analysis of modern batch manufactured apparatus revealed a tendency toward widening the scope and complicating the signallization means of automatic protection and preventing failures. It is shown that the reliability of the units for counter-pulsation with the pump-balloon is not only a technical, but also a biomedicocybernetic problem. Substance is given to the need for introduction into the system of the apparatus for assisted circulation of sand-by actuating mechanisms for secure a purposeful influence on the physiological parameters of the organism.
