The characteristics, outcomes, and risk factors for in-hospital death of critically ill intensive care unit (ICU) patients with coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) have been described in from Europe, North America China, but there are few data COVID-19 Middle Eastern countries. aim this study was to investigate the pneumonia admitted ICUs a University Hospital Egypt. Retrospective analysis between April 28 July 29, 2020 two dedicated isolation treatment severe acute respiratory syndrome 2...
Early recognition and appropriate treatment has shown to decrease morbidity mortality in patients with undifferentiated shock. There are many ultrasound protocols shock; each protocol combines core elements such as IVC cardiac assessment which includes detection of tamponade, left ventricular function right strain.Valvular is absent majority ultasound protocols, while lung included some them.In this study we investigated parameters used Echo - US help differentiate shock types.This cross...
Abstract Background Early diagnosis and appropriate management of shock aimed at prevention prolonged hypoperfusion has shown to decrease morbidity mortality in patients with undifferentiated shock. However, there is often a challenge emergency department (ED) – where mainly based on clinical signs standard monitoring parameters. use point care ultrasound could reduce the diagnostic time improve accuracy. Purpose The aim this study investigate accuracy echocardiography - protocol identify...
Abstract Purpose Up to 50% of patients do not achieve significant left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) recovery after primary percutaneous intervention (PPCI) for STEMI. We aimed identify the echocardiographic predictors LVEF and assess value early follow‐up echocardiography (Echo) in risk assessment post‐myocardial infarction (MI) patients. Methods One hundred one STEMI undergoing PPCI were enrolled provided EF below 50%. Baseline assessed LVEF, volumes, wall motion score index (WMSI),...
Abstract Background: Left ventricular hypertrophy and asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) are surrogate markers of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the dialysis population. This study aimed to evaluate effect a calcium channel blocker-based antihypertensive regimen compared beta-blocker-based on left mass index (LVMI) ADMA levels hypertensive patients hemodialysis (HD). Methods: was parallel-design, open-label, single-center randomized controlled trial 46 maintenance HD, with no history CVD....
Abstract Aim: This is a rheumatoid arthritis (RA) descriptive study, the first of its kind carried out in Malaysia. Methods: study involved 1084 RA patients’ epidemiological and clinical data taken from Selayang, Putrajaya, Taiping Seremban hospitals June 2004 to December 2005. Results: One thousand eighty‐four patients'data were analysed; 960 (88.6%) patients female 124 (11.4%) male, approximately 8 : 1 M F ratio. The majority Indian (591; 54.5%), followed by Malays (340; 31.4%), Chinese...
A 17-year-old male patient with Gaucher disease was presented to our institution complaining of rapid irregular palpitations. Echocardiography showed the presence critical aortic stenosis due disease.
Background: Phase II study was conducted to evaluate bladder preservation protocol in Bilharzial and non invasive transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) cancer using gemcitabine conformal radiotherapy (RT). Methods: 30 TCC patients with good performance status renal function subjected maximum trans-urethral resection of tumor (TURBT). Patients received 66 Gy/33 fractions/6.5 weeks weekly 125 mg/m2. Evaluation done after one month cystoscopy CT/MRI pelvis. who had complete remission (CR) for...
Abstract Background Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is associated with an increased risk of arrhythmias and cardiovascular mortality. The study objective was to investigate the effect LVH severity on complexity among a subset Egyptian hypertensive patients. Results cohort consisted 60 patients as diagnosed by echocardiography. Their mean age (53.7 ± 12.3) years. 36 males (40%) 24 females (60%). Diabetes mellitus found in 26 (43%), 41% these cases were smokers. 48-h Holter monitoring...
Methods: An IRB approved retrospective chart review of patients aged 5 to 21 years who underwent operative treatment with initial subtotal colectomy (STC), followed by a total proctocolectomy IPAA +/-diversion for medically refractory IBD from January 2010 August 2018 (n = 25).Fisher's exact test was used statistical analysis.Results: The average age at the time 13.4 -3.4 years.Patients were predominately male (53.8%) and Caucasian (53.8%).Indication STC ulcerative colitis in 84.6% patients,...
Background: Left Ventricular Noncompaction (LVNC) is a rare form of cardiomyopathy resulting from arrest in the normal endomyocardial compaction, characterized by presence prominent trabeculations and deep intertrabecular recesses. Clinical manifestations range being asymptomatic, heart failure, arrhythmia thromboembolism. Atrioventricular block (AV) presentation. Materials Methods: In patient presented with complete LVNC genomic DNA thirteen genes associated was analyzed sequencing for...
Introduction: Endothelial dysfunction plays a major role in the pathophysiology of septic shock and organ dysfunction, has been suggested to be predictor mortality sepsis. Ultrasound measurement brachial artery reactivity indices response transient ischemia provides indirect estimates endothelial dysfunction. The aim this study was assess whether could used for prognostic assessment patients with sepsis or not. Methods: Fifty diagnosis were subjected flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) within 24...
Objective: Hypertension remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality, the optimum blood pressure target debated, especially in coronary artery disease, given concerns for reduced myocardial perfusion if diastolic is too low. The aim this work was to study relationship between (DBP) severity, burden disease (CAD) as quantified by SYNTAX Score. Design method: Six hundred consecutive stable patients with signs or symptoms CAD who underwent elective angiography were included study....
Background: Acutely decompensated heart failure patients have variable clinical outcomes. Some predictors of mortality in acute as resting rate, blood pressure, Pro-BNP level, and others been identified. This study addresses the question whether copeptin may add value one-year prognosis this category high-risk patients. Results: To assess relationship serum level with one year mortality, we evaluated at admission after 72 hours 106 consecutive hospitalized for between May 2021 November a...
Manifest accessory pathways that conduct antegrade-only account for less than 5% of all bypass tracts. We present a case 25-year-old patient presented with manifest pathway. During electrophysiological study, there was no retrograde conduction over the pathway successfully ablated through subclavian venous access.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation is a complex procedure that requires access to the left atrium and Pulmonary Vein Isolation (PVI).The results of these procedures are highly variable due heterogeneous nature veins as well techniques.Identification this anatomy relationship surrounding structures can help increase success reduce risk complications procedures.Thus, imaging techniques play an important role in procedural planning.Preprocedural rule out thrombosis, assess pulmonary (PVs) (LA),...
