We assessed the frequency, efficacy, predictors, and long-term success of repeat enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) therapy in relieving angina in a large cohort of patients who had chronic angina pectoris and had undergone a full course of EECP. Within 2 years of the initial course of EECP, the rate of repeat EECP was 18%, which occurred at a mean interval of 378 days after initial EECP. Of those who underwent repeat EECP, 70% had a decrease of >/=1 angina class at the end of repeat EECP with similar decreases in nitroglycerin use.
我们评估了重复增强型体外反搏(EECP)治疗在一大群慢性心绞痛且已接受完整疗程EECP的患者中缓解心绞痛的频率、疗效、预测因素和长期成功率。在首次EECP疗程的2年内,重复EECP的发生率为18%,平均发生在首次EECP后378天。在接受重复EECP的患者中,70%在重复EECP结束时心绞痛分级下降≥1级,硝酸甘油使用量也有类似下降。
