Abstract

A method of counterpulsation therapy is provided, the method comprising use of a combination of cardiac electrical activity and acoustic signals in such a manner that initially R wave on a cardiogram and then II (aortic) sound are determined, and, after the II sound has been determined, stimulation of muscles by means of electric impulses is initiated. A device for performing the above described method comprises a sensor of the signal of cardiac electrical activity and a sensor of cardiac acoustic signal; a unit for blocking the cardiac electrical activity signal; a unit for blocking the acoustic signal; and a control device coupled with muscle stimulating devices.
