Abstract Introduction: Catheter ablation is becoming an increasingly utilized treatment option for atrial fibrillation (AF) due to its proven efficacy. This study aims examine the correlation between changes in left atrium (LA) sphericity and outcomes of catheter patients with AF, as there limited understanding predictors influencing success ablation. Methods: All eligible AF who underwent were included. Demographic data consist age, gender, beta-blocker agents, anti-arrhythmia past medical...
Background There are some data showing that repurposed drugs used for the Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) have potential to increase risk of QTc prolongation and torsade de pointes (TdP), these arrhythmic side effects not been adequately addressed in COVID-19 patients treated with medications. Methods This is prospective study 2403 hospitalised at 13 hospitals within epicentres Iran. These were chloroquine, hydroxychloroquine, lopinavir/ritonavir, atazanavir/ritonavir, oseltamivir,...
The Atrial Fibrillation Better Care (ABC) pathway is such an integrated care approach, recommended in guidelines. aim of this service evaluation study was to evaluate the impact implementing ABC Iranian population.
Introduction: The surgeons and their patients are now seeing the benefits extendedpossibilities of minimally invasive cardiac surgery. Anterior mini-thoracotomy approach is agood alternative to median sternotomy since it reduces operative trauma, accelerates recoveryand yields a better cosmetic outcome. Our purpose explain details our technique andmanifest experience results.Methods: Seventy five with secundum Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) (52 female 23 male)were operated anterior in tertiary...
Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a morbid and heritable irregular cardiac rhythm that affects about 2%–3% of the population. Patients with early-onset AF have strong genetic association disease; nonetheless, exact underlying mechanisms need clarification. We herein present our evaluation 2-generation Iranian pedigree AF. Whole-exome sequencing was applied to elucidate predisposition. Direct DNA utilized confirm screen variants in proband his available family members. The pathogenicity...
There is increasing evidence that endocrine system may be dysfunctional in patients with heart failure.In the present study, we investigated hormonal abnormalities failure and effect of disturbed balance on prognostic outcomes systolic failure.Among followed Heart Failure Transplantation Clinic, 33 men a diagnosis idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy receiving guidelines-directed medical therapies New York Association Class II-III were enrolled. Serum concentrations growth hormone (GH),...
Abstract Objective: We report a very rare case of hydatid cyst in the infratemporal fossa, causing visual loss over 10-day period, which disappeared with rapid surgical and medical treatment. Case report: A 14-year-old girl presented right exophthalmos loss. Over her acuity had decreased to detection hand motion only, due pressure on optic nerve caused by parapharyngeal pressing through inferior orbital fissure side. craniotomy previously been performed for frontoparietal cyst. The patient...
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is a common complication with potentially higher risk of adverse outcome and prolonged hospital stay. Objective: To determine the impact postoperative AF (POAF) on long-term in large cohort patients who underwent CABG. Patients Methods: We conducted an observational study 989 isolated CABG more than 5-year follow-up. Patient divided two groups: without POAF. Results: In this study, atrial developed 156 (15.8%)....
Ventricular tachyarrhythmia after coronary artery bypass graft is common and the occurrence has been described, but incidence risk factors are not well defined.To evaluate of arrhythmias to detect high-risk populations.In this prospective study, 856 consecutive patients undergoing were monitored for new-onset ventricular tachyarrhythmias: non-sustained monomorphic tachyarrhythmia, sustained polymorphic fibrillation. Detailed analyses clinical, demographic, echocardiographic, surgical...
Background: Malnutrition is a common problem among elderly patients, especially those with heart failure, and known to increase mortality rates. Objectives: The current study evaluated nutritional status identify changes in the patients congestive failure (CHF) during hospital stay. Patients Methods: This cross-sectional recruited 225 CHF hospitalized comprised of 154 males (68.4%) 71 females (31.6%) at ameanage 71.1±7.35 years. mini assessment (MNA) was performed estimate functional,...
Background Atrial fibrillation. (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia globally and its prevalence likely to increase in next decades as a result of increasing age co-morbidities. There are no data on demographic features, clinical characteristics, associated comorbidities, practice patterns AF Iran. Methods The Iranian Registry Fibrillation (IRAF) hospital-based prospective survey patients with 12-month follow-up. Data were collected standardized case report form entered into...
Background: The treatment of an occluded saphenous vein graft (SVG) with percutaneous coronary intervention may encounter major adverse cardiac events (MACE). MACE rates have been reduced significantly by using the embolic protection device (EPD). Objectives: aim this study was to clarify risks and benefits devices. Patients Methods: In a prospective, non-randomized observational study, patients aged 33 85 years old who underwent elective due SVG stenosis at our tertiary care center were...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) augments the risk of stroke by 4-5 times. Vitamin D is pivotal in numerous metabolic pathways. A handful studies have explored correlation between vitamin deficiency (VDD) and AF outcomes. Hence, authors sought to assess relationship VDD
Background: Warfarin has long been a reliable anticoagulant, prized for its affordability and extensive track record. However, with advancements in anticoagulant therapies, many uses of warfarin have replaced by Novel Oral Anticoagulant (NOAC) agents. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common heart rhythm disorder, affecting approximately 3% population. This arrhythmia significantly increases risk both morbidity mortality, ischemic stroke being five times higher compared to those without...
Little is known about the natural history of aortic regurgitation (AR) in patients undergoing mitral valve procedures for stenosis.The aim this study was to evaluate short- and long-term effects percutaneous valvuloplasty (PMV) on coexisting AR.A total 327 with rheumatic stenosis (282 females 45 males; mean age at time intervention = 47 ± 11 years) were followed up between 48 hours 13 years after PMV. At PMV, 142 (43.3%) had no AR, 124 (37.9%) mild 61 (18.7%) moderate AR. After follow-up...
Measuring cardiac markers in blood has been the main strategy for diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction nearly 50 years. Creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) demonstrated to be a highly specific marker.The present study aimed assess role CK-MB changes following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) predict one year outcomes this procedure.This cohort was conducted on 138 patients diagnosed with artery disease who underwent PCI. Sixty-nine had elevation ≥ 3 times upper limit normal (ULN) post...
Thrombolytic therapy in patients with sub-massive pulmonary embolism (SMPTE) needs further assessment.The current study aimed to assess a potential benefit of thrombolytic and non-thrombolytic SMPTE.One hundred-nineteen were enrolled SMPTE from 2006 2010 the tertiary care center Rajaie medical research center. The who had thromboemboli (PTE) received plus heparin or (unfractionated alone) evaluated for hemodynamic changes (blood pressure, pulse rate, artery systolic right ventricular failure...
