EECP therapy is an outpatient treatment to improve blood circulation and increase cardiac output, it originally is used for angina and heart failure. In Heart disease, treatments are usually given for an hour each day, for up to five days a week for a total of 35 hours. In ME/CFS the treatment sessions are shorter 30-45 mins and are given once a week. During the treatment, you lie on a comfortable treatment table with large blood pressure-like cuffs wrapped around your legs and buttocks. These cuffs inflate and deflate continuously at specific times between heartbeats, a continuous electrocardiogram (EKG) set the timing so the cuffs inflate while the heart is at rest, in diastole, when it normally gets its supply of blood and oxygen. The cuffs deflate at the end of that rest period, just before the next heart beat, systole.
A special
sensor applied to your finger checks the oxygen level in your blood and
monitors the pressure waves created by the cuff inflations and
deflations. Blood circulation improves with this treatment, is is as
if you are having aerobic exercise whilst lying down. YOUTUBE.com has
two video clips showing its use in ME/CFS.
There are few EECP machines available for routine use in ME/CFS. The
EECP machine is installed in the Enlander Clinic, Manhattan and awaits
you..... |
