    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intra-aortic_balloon_pump

    An intra-aortic balloon pump. The intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) is a mechanical device that increases myocardial oxygen perfusion and indirectly increases cardiac output through afterload reduction. It consists of a cylindrical polyurethane balloon that sits in the aorta, approximately 2 centimeters (0.79 in) from the left subclavian artery. [1]

    In the centrifugal pumps, the rotors are shaped to accelerate the blood circumferentially and thereby cause it to move toward the outer rim of the pump, whereas in the axial flow pumps the rotors are more or less cylindrical with blades that are helical, causing the blood to be accelerated in the direction of the rotor's axis.

    The pumps are mounted on support catheters and typically inserted through the femoral artery, although axillary and subclavian artery approaches are not uncommon. [ 12 ] The Impella Device is a generational extension of the Intra aortic balloon pump (IABP) in addressing cardiogenic shock.

  6. Elastomeric pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elastomeric_pump

    Elastomeric pumps, also called balloon pumps or ball pumps, are usually used in the medical field to administer liquid drugs such as local anesthetics, analgesics, cytostatics or antibiotics (depending on the therapy). The required pressure for administering the drug comes from the elastomeric layer that is molded inside the pump.

  7. Cardiopulmonary bypass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiopulmonary_bypass

    Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) or heart-lung machine, also called the pump or CPB pump, is a machine that temporarily takes over the function of the heart and lungs during open-heart surgery by maintaining the circulation of blood and oxygen throughout the body. [1] As such it is an extracorporeal device. CPB is operated by a perfusionist. The ...
