摘要：
Systems and methods for Endovascular Perfusion Augmentation for Critical Care (EPACC) are provided. The system may include a catheter having an expandable aortic blood flow regulation device disposed on the distal end of the catheter for placement within an aorta of a patient. The system may also include a catheter controller unit that causes the expandable aortic blood flow regulation device to expand and contract to restrict blood flow through the aorta. The system may also include one or more sensors for measuring physiological information indicative of blood flow through the aorta, and a non-transitory computer readable media having instructions stored thereon, wherein the instructions, when executed by a processor coupled to the one or more sensors, cause the processor to compare the measured physiological information with a target physiological range associated with blood flow through the aorta such that the catheter controller unit automatically adjusts expansion and contraction of the expandable aortic blood flow regulation device to adjust an amount of blood flow through the aorta if the measured physiological information falls outside the target physiological range.
