Background. It is not known if the adjustment of antihypertensive therapy based on home blood pressure monitoring (HBPM) can improve (BP) control among haemodialysis patients. Methods. This an open randomized clinical trial. Hypertensive patients were to have adjusted predialysis BP measurements or HBPM. Before and after 6 months follow-up, submitted ambulatory (ABPM) for 24 h, HBPM during 1 week echocardiogram. Results. A total 34 31 completed study in groups, respectively. At end study,...
The purpose of these Guidelines is to inform.They do not substitute the clinical judgment doctors who, in final analysis, must determine which tests and treatments are appropriate for their patients.

Objective To test the hypothesis that there is an association between arterial blood pressure and left ventricular hypertrophy patterns of geometry, defined echocardiographically, in a group stable haemodialysis patients with low prevalence extrarenal diseases. Design methods Patients end-stage renal failure treated by regular (aged 44.3 ± 12.9 years, n = 103, among whom 52 men 23 blacks, dialysis duration 49.8 35.3 months) were subjected to echo-cardiographic evaluation (M-mode,...
Abstract We investigated the relationship between blood pressure and occurrence of complex ventricular arrhythmias (multiform, couplets, or runs) as assessed by 48-hour Holter monitoring in 74 stable long-term hemodialysis patients (44.5±12 years old; 54% men; 74% whites; dialysis duration, 51.3±36.1 months; systolic pressure, 146.6±19.3 mm Hg; diastolic 89.2±12.1 prevalence arterial hypertension, 33.8%). Systolic pressures represented average all predialysis determinations during 3 months...
Lactococcus garvieae, patógeno zoonótico emergente, é responsável por mastite em ruminantes e septicemia peixes. Embora seja considerado oportunista raramente causar infecções humanos, sua incidência deve estar subestimada devido à dificuldade do diagnóstico. Há pouquíssimos relatos de osteomielite, abscesso hepático peritonite, apenas nove casos descritos na literatura mundial endocardite. Relatamos o primeiro caso endocardite garvieae da América Latina paciente portadora prótese valvar...
Background. Age, diabetes and concomitant cardiovascular disease, recorded at the initiation of dialysis, allows identification patients with a high probability early mortality. When all these factors are taken into account mortality rate dialysis is still 3.5 times higher than for general population. Information on that increase lacking major risk important because likely to be correctable, especially if detected early. Methods. We investigated prospectively relevance blood pressure other...
To assess the role of arterial hypertension in left ventricle (LV) hypertrophy among hemodialysis patients, echocardiographic evaluation was performed 10 hypertensive and 13 normotensive subjects matched for age, sex, race, duration dialysis treatment degree interdialytic volume expansion. We excluded from latter group patients with previous since heart disease may persist after adequate blood pressure control. also studied 17 normal controls non-uremic essential hypertension. Comparisons...
A endocardite em válvula de Eustáquio é uma condição rara, que ocorre geralmente usuários drogas injetáveis e portadores marcapasso ou cateter venoso central. Apresentamos um caso paciente que, pós-operatório cirurgia revascularização do miocárdio com circulação extracorpórea, apresentou diagnosticada pela ecocardiografia, sendo identificada Klebsiella pneumoniae à hemocultura. O foi tratado antibioticoterapia apropriada, apresentando resolução quadro quatro semanas.
Fundamento: A função diastólica em portadores de estenose aórtica (EAO) é pouco estudada.Não possível estabelecer uma correlação entre biomarcadores e disfunção
Abstract: Long‐term hemodialysis has been reported to cause progression of left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy with a tendency toward asymmetric septal hypertrophy. Renal transplantation is believed reverse some these changes. The aim this prospective study was compare the effects long‐term and successful renal on cardiac structure function assessed by echocardiography. Fifty‐three patients were submitted two echocardiographic evaluations separated 30 ± 8 month interval. At first control, all...
The cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an effective option for patients with advanced heart failure (HF). Clinical, electrocardiographic and echocardiographic criteria have been studied in attempt to find the that will benefit from CRT, considering echocardiogram method used both selection assessment of such therapy.The objective this work analyze use assess a ten-day follow-up period after two years evolution.The considered 20 subjected years, 80% which were male. Minnesota Living...
O aneurisma de apêndice atrial esquerdo é condição rara que se manifesta freqüentemente por arritmias cardíacas ou tromboembolismo. Relatamos um caso paciente portador esquerdo, diagnosticado pela ecocardiografia e submetido a ressecção cirúrgica.
The use of speckle-tracking echocardiography for evaluation cardiac function has great applicability in different scenarios. broad this method requires tools that allow the extraction relevant data from strain curves and inclusion these traditionally used parameters.The present study aimed to validate a free software, called D-station, analysis curves.From raw files, D-Station determines phases cycle, simultaneously exhibits rate chambers. Validation software was done by global longitudinal...
Left bundle branch block (LBBB) causes delays that alter the mechanics of ventricular cycle. The effect other intraventricular blocks (IVB) remains little explored. To study phases cardiac cycle (CC) and synchrony in different activation patterns. Cross-sectional with 328 consecutive individuals without structural heart disease, normal electrocardiogram or IVB, conducted period between August/2020 January/2022. Echocardiogram Vectorcardiogram were performed simultaneously to analyze...
Antiviral therapies are associated with an increased risk of acute rejection in transplant patients. The aim the present study was to evaluate efficacy and safety lamivudine therapy for hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection renal Six patients were included this study. They received 150 mg/day during a follow-up period 24 months. laboratory tests monitored HBV DNA, HBsAg, HBeAg, ALT, gamma-GT, serum creatinine blood cyclosporine levels. DNA became undetectable four as early third month treatment....
