Résumé
A 52-year-old man with ischemic cardiomyopathy presented with progressive, severe orthostatic hypotension refractory to medical therapy. Standard abdominal and leg compression devices were used without success. A novel, inflatable abdominal compression device was created that alleviated the patient's symptoms and maintained his blood pressure.
