Smokers hospitalized with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are at high risk for subsequent ischemic events. Nevertheless, over two-thirds of patients continue to smoke after an myocardial infarction. Bupropion hydrochloride has proven efficacy as a smoking cessation aid, but data regarding its safety and in ACS limited.In double-blind, randomized controlled trial, we compared the 8 weeks treatment bupropion slow-release (SR) or placebo smokers adjunct nurse-led hospital- telephone-based...
Lead perforation is a rare, well-known complication of cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) implants, whose management mostly not evidence-based. Main strategies include conservative approach based on clinical and lead function follow-up vs. routine invasive revision approach. This study compared the complications both by composite endpoint, including recurrent perforation-related symptoms, pericardial effusion (PEf), dysfunction, infection during 12 month follow-up.Multicentre...
Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels correlate with prognosis in patients cardiac disease and may be useful the risk stratification of undergoing noncardiac surgery (NCS). The objective this study was to examine whether BNP predict perioperative events NCS.Patients NCS at least 1 following criteria were included: a clinical history congestive heart failure (CHF), ejection fraction <40%, or severe aortic stenosis. All underwent echocardiography measurement performed using ADVIA-Centaur...
To assess competency and confidence in ECG interpretation medical students across years of school evaluate the associations various factors, a curriculum change, student with competency.
Background The cardiac ryanodine receptor type 2 (RyR2) is a large homotetramer, located in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), which releases Ca2+ from SR during systole. molecular mechanism underlying sensing and gating of RyR2 channel health disease only partially elucidated. Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia (CPVT1) most prevalent syndrome caused by mutations. Methods Results This study involves investigation family with 4 cases ventricular fibrillation sudden death...
Intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIgs) are used for several indications, including autoimmune conditions. IVIg treatment is associated with possible adverse reactions induction of a hypercoagulable state. We report 76-year-old woman treated myasthenia gravis, which developed chest pain and weakness following infusion. The symptoms were ST segment depression in V4–6 elevated troponin levels. patient was diagnosed non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). had no significant risk factor...
Abstract Background Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) is a minimally invasive procedure used for patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR). Cardioversion indicated haemodynamically unstable narrow complex tachycardia and generally considered safe post-mitral clip. We present patient who underwent cardioversion post-TEER single leaflet detachment (SLD). Case summary An 86-year-old female MR TEER MitraClip that reduced severity to mild. During the procedure, experienced...
