The Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump provides temporary support for circulation when a person’s heart can not pump enough blood. A small tube with a balloon is placed into the aorta, where the balloon inflates and deflates in sync with the heartbeat, thereby decreasing the heart's workload and increasing blood flow to the coronary arteries. The patient is monitored for his or her condition and circulation at all times.
