Enhanced external counterpulsation (eecp) role inMonir zaman
Enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) involves the use of inflatable cuffs wrapped around the lower extremities that are synchronized with the cardiac cycle to improve coronary perfusion. A study investigated EECP in patients with heart failure and found it improved exercise duration but not peak oxygen consumption compared to medical therapy alone. While EECP appears safe, more research is still needed to determine its efficacy in treating heart failure.

This particular slides consist of- what is hypotension,what are it's causes and it's effect on body, risk factors, symptoms,complications, diagnosis and role of physiotherapy in it.
This slide is very helpful for physiotherapy students and also for other medical and healthcare students.
Here is the summary of hypotension:
Hypotension, or low blood pressure, is when the pressure of blood circulating in the body is lower than normal or expected. It's only a problem if it negatively impacts the body and causes symptoms. Normal blood pressure is usually between 90/60 mmHg and 120/80 mmHg, but pressures below 90/60 are generally considered hypotensive.
