註釋"The present hospital mortality rate for myocardial infarction is reported as 47%, and when shock occurs it is said to be above 85% regardless of the type of therapy. Most of these patients die in left heart failure. It is obvious that present treatment of myocardial infarction is inadequate and a new approach is required. The answer appears to lie in some type of support to the heart which could adequately maintain systemic and coronary circulation, while the damaged myocardium recovers from its injury. With such assisted circulation surgical correction could be accomplished in isolated lesions and collateral circulation might develop in diffuse disease."--
