Figure 2.
Measurement of systolic velocity and peak diastolic intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP)-augmented velocity. Examples of transcranial Doppler ultrasound waveform from the R middle cerebral arterial (MCA) without A and with B IABP counterpulsation. Note that the software automatically labeled “systolic velocity” is actually the peak diastolic IABP-augmented velocity (PDAV).
