- ArticleCooper GN, Singh AK, Vargas LL, Karlson KE.Am J Surg. 1977 Apr;133(4):463-8.Sixty-five high risk myocardial revascularization patients had preoperative IABP with two operative deaths. Only six patients needed rapid institution of cardiopulmonary bypass after anesthesia induction despite marked blood pressure drop in half the patients.
