BACKGROUND: The appropriate use criteria for revascularization of stable ischemic heart disease have not been evaluated using randomized data. Using data from the ISCHEMIA trial (International Study Comparative Health Effectiveness with Medical and Invasive Approaches; July 2012 to January 2018, 37 countries), health status benefits an invasive strategy over a conservative one were examined within scenarios. METHODS: Among 1833 participants mapped 36 scenarios, symptom was assessed Seattle...
Abstract Paradoxical hypertension is a relatively common complication of surgical repair coarctation the aorta. An early phase systolic has been ascribed to elevated levels norepinephrine. Activation renin‐angiotensin system from sympathetic stimulation implicated in later and diastolic that can result mesenteric arteritis. The use rapidly acting, titratable intravenous alpha‐ beta‐adrenergic blocker, such as labetalol hydrochloride, addresses both these neurohormonal mechanisms. form, it...
Infection remains a significant problem in patients undergoing permanent cardiac pacemaker implantation, and removal of all components is usually required. The transvenous system carries minimal morbidity at but the development infection more life-threatening than epicardial system. Although evolution tined porous endocardial lead reduced incidence wire displacement, serious still may require major surgery for removal. We experienced this 15-month-old child who developed recurrent sepsis....
Ectopic liver tissue is commonly observed in the abdominal cavity adjacent organs. Extension of hepatic into intrathoracic rarely reported. We present case a 46-year-old woman with 2.1 × 1.8 cm mass confirmed by transesophageal echocardiogram to be at right atrial and inferior vena cava junction that was initially thought myxoma which prompted surgical excision but subsequently identified as ectopic histology.
