How do you calibrate an IABP?
Calibration occurs automatically after pressing START. Operator may invoke a calibration anytime by pressing and holding ZERO PRESSURE key for 2 seconds, while assisting.
How do you use an IABP machine?
An IABP is attached to a tube called a catheter. Your doctor will put the catheter and balloon into an artery in one of your legs and use an X-ray camera to move it up to your aorta. The device is hooked up to a machine that tells the balloon when to get bigger and when to get smaller.
What should augmentation be on balloon pump?
Diastolic augmentation should be greater than the unassisted systole. IABP deflation occurs immediately before the aortic valve opens reducing both the assisted end-diastolic pressure and assisted systolic pressure. Assisted systolic pressure should be less than the unassisted systolic pressure.
Does IABP decrease preload?
IABP inflates at the onset of diastole, thereby increasing diastolic pressure and deflates just before systole, thus reducing LV afterload….Physiological effects of IABP therapy.
| Aorta | ↓systolic pressure, ↑diastolic pressure |
|---|---|
| Heart | ↓afterload, ↓preload, ↑cardiac output |
| Blood flow | ↑→ coronary blood flow |
How do you care for a patient with IABP?
Patient position is an important consideration if the IABP is to be effective. The patient should be no higher than 30º, which ensures patency of the balloon, continuous flow to the balloon, and reduces the risk of catheter kinking and obstructing the passage of helium into and out of the catheter.
How does IABP calculate map?
Arithmetic MAP is computed by the sum of the systolic pressure +2(diastolic pressure)÷. As an example, a systolic pressure of 120 mm Hg and diastolic pressure of 80 mm Hg yields a mean arithmetic MAP of 93 mm Hg.
Can you draw blood from IABP?
Never power flush or draw blood from the IABP arterial line.

What are the benefits of a balloon pump?
Simply push one button to initiate therapy. Faster inflation and deflation speed: The combination of a fast balloon pump and a superior catheter result in a fast inflate/deflate time. Speed matters! For the patient, the benefit is an improvement in arrhythmia tracking and response.
