Right ventricular failure is relatively frequent and constitutes one of the causes of post-operative heart failure. Few drugs are available to treat right ventricular failure. We present a simple and effective means of mechanical support available in all cardiovascular units: counterpulsation in the pulmonary artery. Our experience and a review of the literature have enabled us to determine the indications for this method to support a failing heart.
右心室衰竭相对常见，是术后心力衰竭的原因之一。治疗右心室衰竭的药物很少。我们介绍一种所有心血管科室都具备的简单有效的机械支持方法：肺动脉内反搏。我们的经验以及对文献的回顾使我们能够确定这种支持衰竭心脏方法的适应症。
