The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has adversely affected diagnosis and treatment of noncommunicable diseases. Its effects on delivery diagnostic care for cardiovascular disease, which remains the leading cause death worldwide, have not been quantified.The study sought to assess COVID-19's impact global procedural volumes safety practices.The International Atomic Energy Agency conducted a worldwide survey assessing alterations in procedure practices resulting from COVID-19....
The extent to which health care systems have adapted the COVID-19 pandemic provide necessary cardiac diagnostic services is unknown. aim of this study was determine impact on testing practices, volumes and types services, perceived psychological stress providers worldwide. International Atomic Energy Agency conducted a worldwide survey assessing alterations from baseline in cardiovascular at pandemic's onset 1 year later. Multivariable regression used factors associated with procedure volume...
Although prior reports have evaluated the clinical and cost impacts of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) for low-to-intermediate-risk patients with suspected significant coronary artery disease (CAD), cost-effectiveness CMR compared to relevant comparators remains poorly understood. We aimed summarize literature on CAD create a calculator, useable worldwide, approximate cost-per-quality-adjusted-life-year (QALY) context-specific patient-level system-level inputs. searched Tufts...
We report a rare case of cardiac hydatid cyst that was incidentally found during routine work up for redo-CABG and picked on echocardiography confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging and, after successful removal, further histopathology. The emphasizes the importance early urgent surgery such cysts whenever discovered to prevent fatal unexpected death. Cardiac hydatidosis is most infrequent type, in comparison with liver (65%) lung (25%).Hydatidosis or cystic echinococcosis caused infection...
The coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic significantly affected management of cardiovascular disease around the world. effect on volume diagnostic procedures is not known. This study sought to evaluate effects early phase COVID-19 and safety practices in Asia. International Atomic Energy Agency conducted a worldwide survey assess changes procedure caused by COVID-19. Testing volumes were reported for March 2020 April compared those from 2019. Data 180 centers across 33 Asian...
Tuberculat myocarditis is an extremely rare entity with few published reports. We report a 13 year old male who presented ventriculat tachycardia. On evaluation he was observed to have MRI features and workup consistent nodular variant of tubercular myocarditis. Child had fatal outcome on follow up.
In ischemic heart disease, cardiac MRI, besides being the gold standard for evaluation of quantitative ventricular function, enables myocardial wall thickness, T2-weighted imaging edema and infarct quantification transmurality. Delayed hyperenhancement sequences are highly predictive scar formation, associated with myocyte necrosis. The extent transmurality delayed has prognostic implications is inversely proportional to degree functional recovery after acute infarction. A greater transmural...
In heart failure, sympathetic overdrive is evidenced by norepinephrine spillover, receptor level changes, etc. Beta-blockers continue to be the cornerstone of treatment in patients with chronic failure due their ability counteract overdrive. Extensive clinical research has demonstrated that long-term beta-blocker metoprolol succinate, carvedilol, or bisoprolol enhances left ventricular function and reverses remodeling, decreases hospitalization risk, increases survival. The aim this...
Abstract Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is increasingly becoming the preferred innovative approach for high-risk stenosis patients. However, before undergoing TAVR, it crucial to undergo a noninvasive and accurate assessment proper sizing planning access route. Computed tomography (CT) imaging plays vital role in evaluating patients scheduled transcatheter implantation (TAVR). It offers comprehensive information about complex anatomy route, ensuring effective patient...
Despite advances in revascularization techniques, acute myocardial infarction (AMI) still carries significant morbidity and mortality.Over the past decade, use of regenerative medicine methodologies, specifically bone marrow derived progenitor cell therapy has been tested more than 35 Phase I II clinical studies demonstrating overall safety measurable benefit, 12-61 months post-treatment as evaluated by improvement Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) changes infarct size post...
Congenital left ventricular outflow obstruction represents a multilevel with several morphological forms. It can involve the subvalvular, valvar, or supravalvular portion of aortic valve complex, and may coexist. Computed tomography (CT) plays an important supplementary role in evaluation patients congenital LVOT obstruction. Unlike transthoracic echocardiography cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging, it is not bounded by small acoustic window, needs for anaesthesia sedation,...
