Background Fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurement is commonly used in the cardiac catheterization laboratory to assess functional significance of coronary arterial plaques. Robust real-world data on complications and modes failure FFR guidewires are limited. Aim To characterize these outcomes by analyzing post-marketing surveillance from United States Food Drug Administration Manufacturer User Facility Device Experience (MAUDE) database for guidewires. Methods The MAUDE was queried...
Coronary artery dissection is a rare complication of blunt chest wall trauma. We report case acute left anterior descending and right coronary dissections after motor vehicle accident. The musculoskeletal injuries obscured the cardiac symptoms. Electrocardiogram bedside echocardiogram revealed pathology, which prompted urgent angiography intervention. (Level Difficulty: Advanced.)
Introduction: Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) measurement is commonly used in the cardiac catheterization laboratory to assess functional significance of coronary arterial plaques. Robust real-world data on complications and modes failure FFR guidewires are limited. We analyzed post-marketing surveillance from Food Drug Administration Manufacturer User Facility Device Experience (MAUDE) database report these endpoints for utilized guidewire. Methods: MAUDE was queried January 1, 2010, April...
A 69-year-old man with a history of heavy alcohol use presented abdominal pain and was diagnosed alcohol-induced acute pancreatitis. On admission, he had not reported chest pain, palpitations, or dyspnea. Initial laboratory tests showed lactic acid level 8.3 mmol/L (normal, 0.5–2.2 mmol/L), normal renal function, cardiac enzyme levels. An electrocardiogram (ECG) on admission sinus tachycardia. His symptoms acidosis resolved after aggressive fluid resuscitation bowel rest. Two days later,...
