Background: In patients with transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy, tafamidis was shown to slow the decline in 6-minute walking distance as compared placebo. We aimed define impact of and optimal background treatment on functional capacity determined by cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET). Methods: Seventy-eight consecutive were enrolled study. They underwent CPET at baseline, outcome defined death or heart failure hospitalization obtained for a time period up 30 months. Fifty-four...
Abstract Background Pericardial and pleural effusion are common findings in patients with cardiac amyloidosis (CA). It is not known, whether effusions correlate right ventricular (RV) function these patients. Furthermore, data on the prognostic significance of pericardial CA scarce. Methods Patients transthyretin (ATTR) light chain (AL) were included a clinical registry. All underwent transthoracic echocardiography at baseline. The presence was determined every patient. endpoint defined as...
Drugs which interact with the renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) aim to reduce negative effects of (Ang) II. Treatment these drugs anticipate a compensatory up-regulation renin; however, it has been shown that there is large variability in circulating plasma (PRA), even patients optimal medical therapy heart failure (HF) reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Our was measure activity (PRA-S), its response RAAS inhibitor (RAASi) therapies and on outcome HF preserved (HFpEF). For this...
BackgroundHeart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is among the most common forms of heart (HF). We aimed to investigate prognostic significance serum potassium levels and its interaction type-2 diabetes mellitus in patients HFpEF.MethodsConsecutive HFpEF were prospectively included a registry study. The primary endpoint was composite cardiac death or HF hospitalization.Results363 enrolled (median age: 73.0 years; females: 70.3%). Median (K+) 4.3 mmol/L. A total 128 (35.3%) had...
Objectives. According to researches, many people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) had the higher incidence rate and mortality of coronary artery (CAD) after percutaneous intervention than those who did not receive intervention, while rehabilitation was beneficial for patients received I. This study aims analyze whether CKD intervention. Patients Methods. A retrospective survey used collect clinical data undergoing due CAD, were screened further analysis. treatment, research subjects divided...
Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) often mimics heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Due to very different treatment strategies, an exact diagnosis and differentiation between pure HFpEF CA-related (HF) is important. In the present study, we assessed recently published H<inf>2</inf>FPEF score in patients HFpEF, transthyretin (ATTR), as well light chain (AL) amyloidosis-related tested whether it differentiates these entities.The scores consists of easy-to-assess clinical (Body Mass...
This case report deals with the unsatisfying pain management of a 44 year old patient cardiac arrest and subsequent cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The has (1) reduced consciousness, (2) is isolated due to an infection multi-resistant germs, (3) tracheotomy (4) contractures muscles in fingers hands. During nursing care he shows facial expressions body postures that indicate which insufficiently addressed.The was processed according model reflexive by Johns (1995) interpreted theoretical...
Zusammenfassung Hintergrund Menschen nach akutem Koronarsyndrom weisen weiterhin ein hohes kardiovaskuläres Risiko auf. Eine pflegerische Intervention zur Verbesserung der Adhärenz von Betroffenen hinsichtlich empfohlenen Präventionsmaßnahmen ist erforderlich. In deren Entwicklung sollen alle an Versorgung beteiligten Personengruppen miteinbezogen werden, u. a. Gesundheitsexpertinnen und -experten. Ziel war es, die Ausrichtung eines dem österreichischen Kontext angepassten pflegegeleiteten...
