Abstract
Discuss the indications for intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation (IABC). Formulate a plan for the evaluation and management of ischemic limb complications related to IABC. Discuss the use of VAD therapy in the management of failing ventricular function. Compare and contrast a variety of VADs with regard to indications, contraindications, and complications. Discuss the technique of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in the treatment of acute respiratory failure.
