Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump
The intra-aortic balloon pump inflates during diastole to increase coronary artery perfusion and cardiac output, and deflates during systole to reduce afterload on the heart.

Helium gas is used in intra-aortic balloon pumps because it is lighter than air, which allows for faster deflation and inflation of the balloon. This rapid action helps to increase oxygen delivery to the heart and improve circulation during cardiac procedures. Additionally, helium is relatively inert and is less likely to be absorbed into the bloodstream, reducing the risk of embolisms.
Ease of insertion for placement in the aorta makes the intra-aorta balloon pump (IABP) the most often used ventricular assist device
