ABSTRACT Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) have been used as a bridge to transplantation in patients with advanced heart failure. In this case, LVAD therapy was destination for 16 years, representing the longest documented and continuously ongoing support original implanted device.
Brucellosis is a zoonotic infection prevalent in certain regions. It typically presents with nonspecific symptoms but can also cause focal organ involvement, including the musculoskeletal, neurological, or pulmonary systems. Herein, we present case of 31-year-old male patient who presented 5-day history fever and cough. Chest X-ray revealed bilateral patchy consolidations, initially suggesting an infectious etiology such as tuberculosis. Given patient's background, further investigation...
Tuberculosis (TB) pericarditis, while uncommon, should be considered in patients with pericardial masses and effusion. Timely recognition treatment anti-TB medications are crucial for a successful outcome.
It is debatable whether BCR-ABL1 transcript type has an impact on outcome of treatment patients with CML, and it not widely studied body weight influences response to treatment. In this study, we tried find out if any these factors outcome.We conducted a retrospective analysis the files 79 being treated in our center for CML known breakpoints, patients' management assessment was done based ELN 2013 guidelines. The performed two main groups, obese vs. normal BMI, then transcripts: e13a2...
Brugada syndrome (BrS) is a rare genetic disease, of which its clinical manifestations include, but not limited to, syncope or sudden cardiac death. A 30-year-old Bangladeshi male patient with past medical history epilepsy was admitted following successful resuscitation from an out hospital arrest secondary to ventricular fibrillation. Electrocardiogram (ECG) upon admission suggestive BrS type I. His old record showed similar ECG 2 months earlier when he had presented and diagnosed seizure....
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Adolescents and young adults (AYAs) diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) constitute a significant demographic group, particularly in regions youthful populations like Qatar. Despite the global median age of CML diagnosis being 65 years, Qatar’s distribution reflects younger cohort. This study investigates whether AYAs exhibit distinct clinicopathological characteristics or outcomes compared to older groups....
Background Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains a risk factor for heart failure (HF). Therefore, we aimed to assess the cardioprotective role of sodium–glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors post-ACS in patients with acute HF (AHF) and diabetes. Methods We conducted retrospective observational cohort study employing propensity score matching. This involved diabetes admitted ACS complicated by AHF, defined as either new clinical requiring diuretics during index admission or having an...
Introduction: Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) in Qatar has not been well characterized the outpatient setting. Objective: To describe characteristics of patients HFrEF who had improvement their left ventricular (LVEF) and independent predictors improvement. Methods: This retrospective cohort study conducted at advanced heart (HF) clinic recruited visited between January 2017 December 2018. Adult were eligible if they diagnosed (LVEF < 40%) two echocardiograms...
Primary pericardial tumors are an entity that is infrequently encountered and may be a cause of effusion. synovial sarcomas the pericardium even rarer malignant invasive challenge to recognize due their vague presentation difficulty in diagnosing non-invasively. Here, we report case 48-year-old gentleman South Asian descent, who was incidentally found have bilateral pleural effusions subsequently diagnosed primary sarcoma.
Abstract Patients with recurrent unclear causes of postprandial abdominal pain should have median arcuate ligament syndrome as a differential diagnosis which is thought to be caused by celiac artery compression. Diagnosis imaging such CT angiography.
Retrograde percutaneous coronary intervention to chronic total occlusion arteries can have complications due its complexity. One of is an interventricular septal hematoma which we report here.
COVID-19 has disrupted the patient workflow in all healthcare settings. Procedures such as bronchoscopy and spirometry require additional pre-procedure screening for SARS-CoV-2. However, there is uncertainty regarding utility of this universal screening. The State Qatar a robust contact tracing system place form mobile application 'Ehteraz.' This study assesses various pre-procedural measures asymptomatic patients generate recommendations any potential improvement workflow.This...
Introduction: Patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) have an unmet need for further risk reduction in major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and heart failure (HF) development despite guideline-directed medical therapy. As sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are cardioprotective, this study, we assessed the effectiveness of SGLT2i post-ACS new onset HF. Hypothesis: use improves outcomes induced Methods: We conducted a retrospective observational cohort study that...
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a disease that affects multiple systems in the body. Due to its variable manifestations, it can at times pose challenges for physicians hold SLE as culprit behind an affected system. This most true when encountering patients with neuropsychiatric manifestations of SLE. We present case 38-year-old female known limited skin involvement and on treatment active pulmonary tuberculosis (TB), yet otherwise healthy, who presented acute fever associated...
Electrocardiogram (ECG) is a reliable tool in the initial diagnostic workup of patients presenting to Emergency Department (ED). However, it not totally free interference from artifacts due various causes such as positional changes during capture, muscle contractions, limb tremors, etc., Such can have disastrous complications if they mimic arrhythmias and are treated such. This case report describes two catheterization laboratory (Cath lab) setting who developed ECG mimicking ventricular...
