Background: Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) is a novel modality with stable parameters and narrow-paced QRS duration. We compared heart failure (HF) hospitalization events echocardiographic measures between LBBAP right ventricular (RVP) in patients atrioventricular block (AVB). Methods Results: This multicenter observational study prospectively recruited consecutive AVB requiring five centers if they received or RVP had left ejection fraction (LVEF) >50%. Data on...
Abstract Background The 2016 guidelines for left ventricular diastolic dysfunction diagnosis has been simplified from previous versions; however, multiparametric approach still exists indeterminate category. Left atrial (LA) strain was recently found useful to predict elevated (LV) filling pressures noninvasively. This study aimed (1) analyze the diagnostic value of LA noninvasive assessment LV in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) preserved ejection fraction (LVEF), using...
Objective Demonstrate the benefits of percutaneous atrial septal defect (ASD) closure under guidance transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) without fluoroscopy. Methods From February 2013 to April 2014, 127 consecutive patients with an isolated type II ASD were recruited undergo either TTE (n = 60, group) or TEE 67, guidance. The group received local anesthesia sedation propofol, and general endotracheal intubation. Follow‐up examinations performed for both groups at 1 month, 3 months, 6 year...
Rationale: Transposition of the great arteries (TGA) is one most severe types congenital heart diseases. Understanding clinical characteristics and pathogenesis TGA is, therefore, urgently needed for patient management this disease. However, genetic cause underlying remain largely unexplored. Objective: We sought to systematically examine isolated nonsyndromic TGA. Methods Results: recruited 249 patients with (66 family trios) performed whole-exome sequencing. The incidence patent ductus...
Although the use of bioabsorbable occluder is expected to reduce risk metal occluder-related complications, it has not been approved due incomplete degradation and new complications. Novel fully occluders were designed overcome such limitations. The aim this study was investigate efficacy safety a biodegradable in patients with ventricular septal defects. 125 perimembranous defect (VSD) larger than 3 mm screened from April 2019 January 2020 seven centers. 108 enrolled randomized into group...
Outcomes of biventricular repair for patients with double outlet right ventricle and non-committed ventricular septal defect (DORVncVSD) are not well defined. We aim to report our experience this anomaly in proposing an original surgical management that simplifies the anatomical correction. From January 2005 December 2013, 75 consecutive DORVncVSD who had undergone institution were retrospectively included. The divided into 2 groups: 40 Group A rerouted aorta, 35 B pulmonary artery....
Percutaneous patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) occlusion has become the preferred therapeutic option, which uses fluoroscopy as guidance. To reduce x-ray exposure, PDA using Amplatzer Duct Occluder II (ADO II) under guidance of transthoracic echocardiography only was conducted. This single center study aims to access safety and efficiency this new strategy.From June 2013 May 2015, 63 consecutive patients underwent echocardiography-guided through femoral artery. Outpatient follow-up conducted at...
To assess safety and effectiveness of symmetric asymmetric occluders in perventricular device closure without cardiopulmonary bypass perimembranous ventricular septal defects (pmVSDs).The present retrospective study enrolled 581 patients who underwent pmVSDs under transoesophageal echocardiography guidance from May 2011 to April 2016, outpatient electrocardiography transthoracic assessments at 1, 3, 6 12 months, yearly thereafter.The overall success rate implantation was 92.6% (43 surgical...
Selecting an appropriate surgical approach for double-outlet right ventricle (DORV), a complex congenital cardiac malformation with many anatomic variations, is difficult. Therefore, we determined the feasibility of using echocardiographic classification system, which describes variations in more precise terms than current system does, to determine whether it could help direct plans. Our includes 8 DORV subtypes, categorized according 3 factors: relative positions great arteries (normal or...
Background Although right ventricular ( RV ) volume was significantly decreased in symptomatic patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot rTOF after pulmonary valve replacement PVR ), size still enlarged along dysfunction. Methods and Results A prospective case‐control study conducted a tertiary hospital; 81 asymptomatic moderate or severe regurgitation were enrolled. The enrolled cohort divided into 2 groups: group (n=41) medication (n=40). Cardiac magnetic resonance, transthoracic...
Abstract Objectives Endocardial global longitudinal strain (endo‐GLS) measured with echocardiography (echo) has been demonstrated to be associated myocardial fibrosis (MF) and is a prognostic predictor in patients hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Late gadolinium enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance (LGE‐CMR) imaging showed that MF primarily located the layer of extremely septal or ventricular wall. We hypothesized GLS (myo‐GLS) more strongly correlated extent LGE (%LGE) powerful factor...
Objective The objective of this study was to assess the feasibility percutaneous balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty (PBPV) under echocardiographic guidance only. Setting PBPV has become preferred choice for valve stenosis (PS). We report first-in-human successful only echocardiography isolated PS. Methods From March 2013 December 2014, 34 patients with congenital PS underwent as imaging modality in ordinary operation room or catheter lab. Outpatient follow-up including chest radiography,...
Shone's complex is a rare syndrome characterized by congenital left heart defects that can differ among the patients.To use echocardiography in diagnosis of and analyze causes missed misdiagnosis.This was retrospective study patients who underwent repair surgery from February 14, 2008, to November 22, 2019. The were followed once year at outpatient clinic after surgery.Sixty-six included. 2.7 (0.8-5.6) years age, 54.5% male. Ten (15.2%) had history surgery. most common defect Annulo-Leaflet...
Heritable dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) or DCM associated with congenital acquired left ventricular diseases carries a significant mortality risk. Pulmonary artery banding (PAB) has been proposed as an alternative to heart transplantation. This study aimed delineate the clinical development, reverse remodelling, and functional regeneration of ventricle, presenting pioneering approach in China.
The hemi-Mustard and bidirectional Glenn (BDG) procedures combined with the Rastelli procedure have been applied to selected cases of congenitally corrected transposition great arteries (ccTGA) for potential benefit over classic atrial switch procedure. aim this study was analyse our experience hemi-Mustard, BDG as an anatomical correction patients ccTGA/left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) positional heart anomalies.In retrospective study, 31 consecutive underwent...
Objective: To discuss the key anatomic features of double outlet right ventricle (DORV) assessed by preoperative echocardiography among patients treated with different types biventricular repair. Methods: Surgical and echocardiographic databases were queried to identify who had undergone repair for DORV adequate imaging. All underwent pre- postoperative clinical evaluation following discharge. Results: Two hundred sixty-two met inclusion criteria study. The divided into two...
This study reviews 9 patients with aortico-left ventricular tunnel (ALVT) and aims to establish the optimal surgical strategies for this exceptional rare pathology.54,882 underwent open-heart surgery at Fuwai Hospital between July 1996 May 2008. Nine of these were diagnosed ALVT. One patient died acute heart failure before operation. The remaining 8 mean age was 22.5 years. Clinical, echocardiographic details reviewed.At operation diagnosis confirmed, then repaired by direct suture closure...
Common atrioventricular valve (CAVV) repair in patients with a single ventricle remains great challenge and refractory issue for pediatric cardiac surgeons.
Surgical outcomes of supracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) repair by the posterior technique (PT) remain unsatisfactory. This study aimed to compare modified L-shaped incision with PT for TAPVC repair.From January 2009 December 2019, 121 consecutive patients undergoing surgical in our institution were included (L-group, n = 53; group, 68). A propensity score-matched analysis was performed. Patients single-ventricle physiology or atrial isomerism excluded. All...
