The first such device was the (IABP), which improved the myocardial oxygen supply/demand ratio and provided limited circulatory support. It remains the most widely used and practical system today, although more complicated devices, such as the left ventricular support device (LVAD) and the cardiopulmonary support (CPS) system, have been introduced to provide more circulatory support in special circumstances.
