Background Changes in P wave parameters after circumferential pulmonary vein isolation (CPVI) have been previously identified. In this study, we aimed to determine the changes surface electrocardiogram (ECG) cryoballoon ablation (CBA) for atrial fibrillation (AF) and evaluate their relationship with AF recurrence. Methods Sixty‐one patients (mean age 53 ± 11 years, 50.8% male) paroxysmal who underwent CBA were enrolled. A ECG was obtained from all immediately before procedure, repeated 12...
Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common and potentially lethal disorder that manifests mainly as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of the extremities or pulmonary embolism (PE) occurs consequence genetic environmental risk factors. We aimed to assess role inherited thrombophilia causative additive factor in development VTE. Methods: The study included 310 patients (female: 154; mean age: 52.3 ± 16.9 years) with first episode VTE 289 age- sex-matched healthy controls. All participants...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia following coronary artery by-pass graft surgery (CABG). The value of SYNTAX score to predict postoperative atrial (PoAF) has not been clearly addressed. We aimed evaluate this relationship in patients undergoing isolated CABG.This study was designed as a single-center, non-randomized, observational, prospective study. Ninety-four on-pump CABG, who had sinus rhythm and were older than 18 years, enrolled. Demographic characteristics...
Although left main coronary artery (LMCA) compression (Co) by pulmonary (PA) aneurysm (A) has been reported in some hypertension (PH) series, clinical importance and management of this complication remain to be determined. In single-centre prospective study, we evaluated correlates, impact, strategies LMCA-Co patients with PH.Our study group comprised 269 (female 166, age 52.9 ± 17.3 years) out 498 confirmed PH who underwent angiography (CA) because the PAA on echocardiography, angina or...
Purpose Postoperative LV dysfunction is associated with poor prognosis and increased mortality in patient mitral regurgitation undergoing surgery. With this study, we aimed to investigate the predictive value of classic speckle tracking echocardiographic ( STE ) deformational parameters for estimating postoperative dysfunction. Methods Fifty‐nine asymptomatic patients severe MR due valve prolapse, who had sinus rhythm ejection fraction EF ≥50%, were included. Patients underwent comprehensive...
Intraventricular dyssynchrony is associated with worsening systolic function, adverse remodeling, and clinical events. The aim of this study to investigate whether intraventricular assessed by tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) can predict left ventricular (LV) remodeling after first ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated successfully primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI).Fifty-two consecutive patients who presented acute STEMI were included in the study. All...
Right ventricular (RV) failure is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with left (LV) end-stage heart (ESHF). Pulmonary artery pulsatility index (PAPi) RV stroke work (RVSWI) are invasive parameters related to function. This study aimed investigate the prognostic impact PAPi RVSWI these patients.In this study, 416 ESHF were included. The adverse cardiac event (ACE) was defined as LV assist device implantation, urgent transplantation, or mortality. There 218 ACE cases 198...
Background In daily practice, C-reactive protein (CRP) may be used to predict recurrence and treatment response in patients with acute pericarditis; however, the predictive role of CRP might insufficient for clinical prediction some patients. this study, we aimed investigate relationship between neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) composite endpoint pericarditis and/or tamponade within 1 year pericarditis.Methods A total 104 diagnosed idiopathic (mean age 42.8 ± 15.2 years, 55.8% male) were...
The authors investigated the diagnostic utility of plasma N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT proBNP) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in differential diagnosis constrictive pericarditis (CP) restrictive cardiomyopathy (RC). Twenty-five patients with high clinical suspicion either CP or RC were enrolled. Mean NT proBNP significantly higher compared to those (2641 +/- 2902 pg/mL vs 628 678 pg/mL; P=.003). level that provided best sensitivity specificity for differentiation was...
Background This study aimed to determine the myocardial damage (infarct size provided by cardiac single‐photon emission tomography) in early stages of infarction using longitudinal strain and rotational parameters left ventricle. Methods The included 66 patients with anterior ( AMI ) 62 inferior IMI who underwent primary percutaneous intervention as well a control group consisting 50 healthy subjects. LV based on parasternal short‐axis views basal apical planes global were measured...
Aim: Severely obese patients are known to be at risk of malignant arrhythmias.The frequency ventricular arrhythmia and sudden death is increasing in morbidly patients.Ventricular depolarization repolarization parameters on the electrocardiogram can predict mortality morbidity.Electrocardiographic (ECG) markers like QT, QTc, QTd, QTdc, JT, JTc Tp-e intervals Tp-e/QT, Tp-e/QTc, Tp-e/JT Tp-e/JTc ratios were evaluated before after sleeve gastrectomy surgery.Material Methods: ECG recordings 35...
Background In patients with symptomatic mitral PVL, successful transcatheter reduction of the PVL to less than mild is associated significant improvement in short- and midterm survival.
Mini‐Abstract A 62‐year‐old male patient with a history of hypertension, dialysis‐dependent chronic renal failure, and coronary artery bypass graft presented to our clinic dyspnea. Transthoracic echocardiographic assessment revealed moderate aortic stenosis (mean gradient: 32 mmHg), mild left ventricular systolic dysfunction (global ventricle ejection fraction: 45%), mobile, racket‐shaped hyperechogenic mass 2.1 × 1.1 cm in posterior mitral leaflet, which partially moved into the during...
Right atrioventricular thrombus was diagnosed by echocardiography in a 14-year-old boy. Thrombus reached through the right ventricle to pulmonary artery and it caused tricuspit valve insufficiency. Surgical thrombectomy performed and, he treated with oral anticoagulation postoperative period.
An unconscious, 25-year-old, male patient was brought to the emergency department. The patient's electrocardiography demonstrated a wide QRS interval and first-degree atrioventricular block. He being treated with propafenone twice daily (450 mg) for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. had consumed substantial amount of alcohol day before. recovered after supportive management sodium bicarbonate inotropic therapy. In presently described case, treatment resulted in quick normalization...
Presently described is the case of a 41-yearold male patient with signs high-output right heart failure (HF) due to possibly iatrogenic arteriovenous fistula (AVF) between left common iliac artery and vein. Invasively evaluated hemodynamic measurements were consistent severe shunting, which resulted in precapillary pulmonary hypertension (PH). The AVF was successfully closed non-dedicated, 16-mm Amplatzer patent ductus arteriosus occluder (St. Jude Medical, Inc., St. Paul, MN, USA). Although...
