Abstract		Balloon atrial septostomy is an interventional cardiological procedure allowing necessary blood mixing at the level of the atria. It can be performed under fluoroscopic or echocardiographic guidance. Our experiences with the procedure performed using echocardiographic guidance in the intensive care unit are presented. It is a safe, simple and successful alternative to the procedure performed in the cardiac catheterization laboratory.
Summary		Balonska atrioseptostomija je kardiološki intervencijski poseg, s katerim se zagotovi mešanje krvi na ravni srčnih preddvorov. Poseg je mogoče izvajati z diaskopsko in/ali ultrazvočno kontrolo. Opisane so naše izkušnje z ultrazvočno vodenimi posegi v enoti za intenzivno zdravljenje. Ultrazvočno vodena balonska atrioseptostomija je enostavna, varna in učinkovita alternativa klasični izvedbi posega v kateterizacijskem laboratoriju.
