Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is characterized by severe lung involvement and hemodynamic alterations. Critical care ultrasonography vital because it provides real time information for diagnosis treatment. Suggested protocols image acquisition measurements have not yet been evaluated.This cross-sectional study was conducted at two centers from 1 April 2020 to 30 May in adult patients with confirmed COVID-19 infection admitted the critical unit. Cardiac pulmonary evaluations were...
Objective The global burden of HFpEF is high and, despite developments in available therapies, patient outcomes have not improved significantly. This study aimed to explore the optimal approaches diagnosis and treatment patients with develop recommendations on how guideline directed medical therapy can be introduced a more equitable universal manner.
Cardiac PET quantifies stress myocardial blood flow (MBF) and perfusion reserve (MPR), while ECG-gated datasets can measure components of ventricular function simultaneously. Stress MBF seems to outperform MPR in the detection significant CAD. However, it is uncertain which measurement more related function. We hypothesized that correlates with better than patients studied for suspected ischemia.
Background Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) frequently involves cardiovascular manifestations such as right ventricular (RV) dysfunction and alterations in pulmonary hemodynamics. We evaluated the application of critical care ultrasonography ORACLE protocol to identify most frequent their influence on adverse outcomes, especially those involving RV (dilatation dysfunction). Methods This cross-sectional study included 204 adult patients with confirmed COVID-19 admitted at three centers....
By end December of 2021, COVID-19 has infected around 276 million individuals and caused over 5 deaths worldwide. Infection results in dysregulated systemic inflammation, multi-organ dysfunction, critical illness. Cells the central nervous system are also affected, triggering an uncontrolled neuroinflammatory response. Low doses glucocorticoids, administered orally or intravenously, reduce mortality among moderate severe patients. However, low by these routes do not reach therapeutic levels...
<b>Background</b> Due to the ageing population, patients often present hospital with a high burden of comorbidities and polypharmacy. For admitted decompensated Heart Failure (HF) evidence on effects contraindicated drugs long-term mortality is scarce. Therefore, we aimed investigate effect medications outcomes HF. <b>Methods</b> We analyzed All consecutive from National Audit (NHFA) two tertiary centres acutely HF between April 2020 October 2021. included medication classes listed as (class...
Abstract Aims Specialist cardiology care is associated with a prognostic benefit in patients heart failure (HF) reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) admitted decompensated HF. However, up to one third of HF and normal (HFnEF) do not receive specialist input. Whether this has implications unknown. Methods results Data on hospitalized HFnEF from two tertiary centres were analysed. The primary outcome measure was all‐cause mortality during follow‐up. secondary in‐hospital mortality. A total 1413...
The use of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is controversial in patients with COVID-19. aim this case series was to demonstrate the usefulness acute cardiovascular care settings COVID-19 infection.We enrolled 13 confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection admitted critical unit our center from April 1, 2020, July 30, which performed. TOE performed by three cardiologists training echocardiography.The main indication suspected infective endocarditis four cases, venovenous extracorporeal membrane...
Chronic heart failure continues to be one of the main causes impairment in functioning and quality life people who suffer from it, as well mortality our country around world.Mexico has a high prevalence risk factors for developing failure, such blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, which makes it essential have an evidence-based document that provides recommendations health professionals involved diagnosis treatment these patients.This establishes clinical practice guide (CPG) prepared at...
La amiloidosis es una enfermedad heterogénea, de origen hereditario o adquirido, que se caracteriza por el depósito anormal proteínas fibrilares en diversos tejidos.Esta puede manifestarse manera localizada sistémica, lo genera amplia variabilidad su presentación clínica y, frecuentemente, retrasa diagnóstico.Por ello, fundamental la identificación temprana los signos y síntomas para mejorar pronóstico.El primer posicionamiento mexicano sobre cardíaca tiene como objetivo resumir las...
La telemedicina es una herramienta subutilizada en nuestros sistemas
Telemedicine is an underused instrument along our healthcare systems.It's a technological tool that optimizes resources, save money, expands capacities, decongests traditional medical services and invaluable help for teaching research.The COVID-19 pandemic forcing us to expand its use it gives the opportunity design appropriate implementation. RESUMENLa telemedicina es una herramienta subutilizada en nuestros sistemas de atención sanitaria.Se trata un recurso tecnológico que optimiza los...
Several changes of the mitral valve (MV) morphology have been previously documented in ischaemic regurgitation (IMR) upon macro and microscopic examination. This study aimed to correlate echocardiographic MV thickening with IMR severity delineate histopathological basis from explanted leaflets.Two hundred fifty patients were included echo-group; these, 48 (19.2%) underwent surgical replacement (MVR), including them histology-group. By echocardiography, thickness anterior posterior leaflet...
BACKGROUND:In cardiac amyloidosis (CA), misfolded proteins deposit in the extracellular space of tissue. These deposits classically cause restrictive cardiomyopathy with diastolic dysfunction. Although there are at least 30 known to amyloid aggregates, 2 main types make up most diagnosed cases: light chain (AL) and transthyretin (ATTR). Since CA is considered a rare condition, it often underdiagnosed or recognized advanced stages. Once involve heart tissue, they associated worse outcome...
Abstract COVID-19 has produced more than 176 million infected individuals and almost 3.2 deaths worldwide. The infection results in a dysregulated systemic inflammation, multi-organ dysfunction, critical illness. Cells of the central nervous system (CNS) are also affected triggering neuroinflammatory response.Low doses glucocorticoids (GCs) orally or intravenously administered been proved to reduce mortality moderate severe patients. However, low by those routes do not reach therapeutic...
