Computational prediction of the effects of the intra-aortic balloon pump on heart failure with valvular regurgitation using a 3D cardiac electromechanical model.

Abstract：

:Intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) is normally contraindicated in significant aortic regurgitation (AR). It causes and aggravates pre-existing AR while performing well in the event of mitral regurgitation (MR). Indirect parameters, such as the mean systolic pressure, product of heart rate and peak systolic pressure, and pressure-volume are used to quantify the effect of IABP on ventricular workload. However, to date, no studies have directly quantified the reduction in workload with IABP. The goal of this study is to examine the effect of IABP therapy on ventricular mechanics under valvular insufficiency by using a computational model of the heart. For this purpose, the 3D electromechanical model of the failing ventricles used in previous studies was coupled with a lumped parameter model of valvular regurgitation and the IABP-treated vascular system. The IABP therapy was disturbed in terms of reducing the myocardial tension generation and contractile ATP consumption by valvular regurgitation, particularly in the AR condition. The IABP worsened the problem of ventricular expansion induced as a result of the regurgitated blood volume during the diastole under the AR condition. The IABP reduced the LV stroke work in the AR, MR, and no regurgitation conditions. Therefore, the IABP helped the ventricle to pump blood and reduced the ventricular workload. In conclusion, the IABP partially performed its role in the MR condition. However, it was disturbed by the AR and worsened the cardiovascular responses that followed the AR. Therefore, this study computationally proved the reason for the clinical contraindication of IABP in AR patients.
