摘要：

A new system for external counter pulsation is presented. The leg muscles are stimulated periodically by textile electrodes which produce diastolic extra-flows into the peripheral vascular system. In an initial clinical experiment advanced peripheral perfusion and reduced systematic vascular resistance could be demonstrated. Therefore the use in chronic heart failure therapy is suggested.
