Abstract Aims Residual pulmonary congestion at hospital discharge can worsen the outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF) and be detected by lung ultrasound (LUS). The aim of this study was to analyse prevalence subclinical its impact on prognosis admitted for acute HF. Methods results This is a post‐hoc analysis LUS‐HF trial. LUS performed investigators eight chest zones pocket device. Physical exam subsequently treating physicians. Primary outcome combined endpoint rehospitalization,...
While endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) is recommended in adult patients with fulminant myocarditis, the clinical impact of its timing still unclear.Data were collected from 419 clinically suspected myocarditis admitted to intensive care units across 36 tertiary centres 15 countries worldwide. The diagnosis was histologically proven 210 (50%) patients, either by EMB (n = 183, 44%) or autopsy/explanted heart examination 27, 6%), and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging confirmed 96 (23%) patients....
Venoarterial-extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is currently one of the first-line therapies for refractory cardiogenic shock (CS), but its applicability undermined by high morbidity associated with complications, especially those related to mechanical ventilation (MV). We aimed assess prognostic impact keeping patients in CS awake at cannulation and during VA-ECMO run.A 7-year database given peripheral support was used conduct a propensity-score (PS)-matched analysis balance...
Despite the increasing use of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation to treat severe cardiogenic shock patients, microcirculation data in this context are scarce. We evaluated impact on macrocirculatory hemodynamics and patients with refractory compared evolutions those parameters between successfully weaned-off who died oxygenation.Prospective study.Academic medical ICU.Consecutive (cardiac arrest excluded) required for whom sublingual measurements before cannulation were...
Abstract Background Primary ventricular fibrillation (PVF) is an ominous complication of ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, the widespread use reperfusion therapies and post resuscitation care could have reduced prevalence PVF improved prognosis these patients in last years. Purpose The aim to analyze changes over fifteen years, since onset on STEMI Code prevalence, management, times acute phase mortality setting STEMI. Method In 2009, network was officially launched Spain....
Fulminant myocarditis (FM) is an uncommon syndrome characterized by sudden and severe hemodynamic compromise secondary to acute myocardial inflammation, often presenting as profound cardiogenic shock, life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias and/or electrical storm. FM may be refractory conventional therapies require mechanical circulatory support (MCS). The immune system has been recognized playing a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of myocarditis, leading increased focus on...
Background Coronary artery disease remains a major cause of death despite better outcomes ST‐segment–elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We aimed to analyze data from the Ruti‐STEMI registry in‐hospital, 28‐day, and 1‐year events in patients with STEMI over past 3 decades Catalonia, Spain, assess trends prognosis. Methods Results Between February 1989 December 2017, total 7589 were admitted consecutively. Patients grouped into 5 periods: 1994 (period 1), 1995 1999 2), 2000 2004 3), 2005...
Abstract Background COVID-19 has challenged the health system organization requiring a fast reorganization of diagnostic/therapeutic pathways for patients affected by time-dependent diseases such as acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Aim To describe ACS hospitalizations, management, and complication rate before after pandemic was declared. Design Ecological retrospective study. Methods: We analyzed aggregated epidemiological data all > 18 years old admitted in twenty-nine hub cardiac...
Cardiogenic shock (CS) is a severe complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). In AMI-CS, the ST segment deviation on ECG may be elevated (STEMI-CS) or non-elevated (NSTEMI-CS), which influence prognosis. Our aim was to analyze clinical profile, acute-phase prognosis, and long-term outcomes CS relative pattern admission. prospective registry 4647 AMI patients admitted intensive cardiac care unit university hospital between 2010 2019, we compared characteristics, 30-days case fatality,...
Cardiogenic shock (CS) is an ominous complication of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), despite the recent widespread use reperfusion and invasive management. The Ruti-STEMI-Shock registry analysed prevalence 30-day 1-year mortality rates in (STEMI) complicated by CS (STEMI-CS) over last three decades.From February 1989 to December 2018, 493 STEMI-CS patients were consecutively admitted a well-defined geographical area ~850,000 inhabitants. Patients classified into six five-year...
Abstract Aims Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA‐ECMO) is currently one of the most used devices in refractory cardiogenic shock. However, there a lack evidence on how to set ‘optimal’ flow. We aimed describe evolution VA‐ECMO flows shock population and determine risk factors ‘high‐ECMO flow’. Methods results A 7 year database patients supported with was used. Based median flow during first 48 h run, were classified as ‘high‐flow’ or ‘low‐flow’, respectively, when ECMO ≥3.6...
Little information exists about the role of anemia in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) admitted to Intensive Cardiac Care Units (ICCU). The aim this study was assess prevalence and its impact on management outcomes clinical setting.All consecutive eight different ICCUs diagnosis non-ST segment elevation ACS (NSTEACS) were prospectively included. Anemia defined as hemoglobin < 130 g/L men 120 women. association between mortality or readmission at six months assessed by Cox...
Abstract Aims The implementation of the 2013 European Society Cardiology (ESC) Core Curriculum guidelines for acute cardiovascular care (acc) training among countries is unknown. We aimed to evaluate current status acc cardiology trainees and young cardiologists (&lt;40 years) from ESC countries. Methods results survey (March–July 2019) asked about details training, self-confidence in technical non-technical skills, access opportunities, needs further field. Overall 614 doctors, 31...
