Objectives To assess feasibility and utility of imaging both arms using ultrasound to facilitate transradial (TR) transulnar (TU) coronary angiograms (CA) intervention. Background Despite well recognized advantages, approach (TRA) has challenges that reduce procedural success including small arterial size, anatomical variations, anomalies radial artery (RA). The routine pre‐procedural the arm arteries (PPUAA) in facilitating TRA not been previously studied. Methods determine role PPUAA, we...
To evaluate safety and efficacy of distal right radial access (DRRA) compared to (RRA), for coronary procedures, in patients with smaller diameter arteries (SDRA) (radial artery (RAD) < 2.1 mm).This is a retrospective analysis DRRA Vs. RRA undergoing procedures at our cardiac catheterization laboratories over 10- month period between September 2017 June, 2018 (first 5 calendar months RRA-first; next DRRA-first). All underwent pre-procedure ultrasound arm arteries. had RAD<2.1 mm (mean RAD...
The study aimed to explore the relationship of telomere length with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) among patients ischemic heart disease (IHD).This 2-year cross-sectional included 130 male diagnosed IHD through echocardiography and coronary angiography, wherein consecutive DM (65) without were selected. Baseline characteristics including age, gender, body mass index, blood pressure recorded. Laboratory investigations such as random sugar (RBS), fasting lipid profile, serum creatinine, urea...
The spectrum of electrocardiographic changes seen with hyperkalemia is known to progress gradually increasing serum levels potassium. Initial are limited peaked T waves and QT shortening, which subsequently prolonged QRS/QT intervals, finally sinus arrest, bradycardia asystole. We report a unique case severe atrial bigeminy junctional rhythm in the setting moderate hyperkalemia, rarely reported finding.
Atrial fibrillation and heart failure are combined risk factors for thromboembolic events. Obese morbidly obese individuals have been underrepresented in clinical trials studying safety efficacy of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs).Study the comparative DOACs patients with atrial or flutter, concomitant congestive failure.In present single-center retrospective observational study, an ICD-9 code on a DOAC (apixaban[n = 155], rivaroxaban[n 335], dabigatran[n 393]) were followed median 12.5...
Despite continued efforts, a majority of patients with valvular heart disease (VHD) remain undiagnosed and untreated. This study aimed to assess the adoptability accuracy point-of-care handheld echocardiographic assessments (POCE) in primary care setting.Eleven previously untrained providers were trained use Vscan Extend (GE, WI) POCE VHD, left ventricular function (LVEF), major extra-cardiac findings. Their compared those three blinded expert readers. A total 175 underwent which evaluated...
Currently only the peripheral intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) device is approved for use in United States. We queried States Food and Drug Administration's Manufacturer User Facility Device Experience (MAUDE) database from January 1, 2016 to December 14, 2020 all reports of adverse events modes failure related IVL device, when used on- off-label indications. There were 20 artery disease interventions 3 coronary interventions. malfunction 13 23 patients (56.5%) was most common event reported....
Leigh syndrome is a neurodegenerative mitochondrial disorder of childhood characterized by symmetrical spongiform lesions in the brain. The clinical presentation Leigh's can vary significantly. However, majority cases, it usually presents as progressive neurological disease involving motor and cognitive development. It common to see signs symptoms midbrain brainstem involvement. Limited data are present on brain processes occurring which be attributed fatal respiratory failure. Raised...
