Intra-aortic balloon pump complications

Complication N (%)
Overall mortality
 In-hospital 70 (37.4)
 30-day 6 (5.1)
 1- year 2 (1.8)
 Amputation 0 (0.0)
 Limb ischemia 6 (3.2)
 Aortoiliac dissection 0 (0.0)
 Compartment syndrome 1 (0.5)
 Return to operating room 1 (0.5)
 Bleeding 3 (1.6)
 Infection at insertion 0 (0.0)
 Mesenteric ischemia 1 (0.5)

Each categorical baseline clinical characteristic is reported as n (%) within the total population of 187 patients. 30-day mortality is calculated from the number that died from the remaining total population (N = 117). 1-year mortality is calculated from the number that died from the remaining total population since 30-day mortality (N = 111).
