Background. Swift assessment of patients presenting with chest pain results in faster treatment and improved outcomes. Allowing ambulance crews to use point-of-care (POC) devices measure cardiac troponin I levels during transport the emergency department (ED) may result earlier diagnosis acute myocardial infarction, particularly those without ST-segment elevation. The ability POC reliably a moving has not previously been tested. Objective. This study was conducted determine whether operated...
To assess the safety and efficacy of Absorb bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) in complex, infrapopliteal lesions for management chronic limb ischemia.The interventional PAD remains challenging due to high restenosis rates with metallic drug-eluting stents balloon angioplasty. Metallic are associated impaired vessel vasomotor tone, remodeling, autoregulation, long-term inflammation. BVSs biodegradable scaffolds that provide short-term support before degrading allow restoration tone...
Objectives To assess the safety, efficacy, and durability of Absorb bioresorbable vascular scaffold in predominantly complex, infra-popliteal lesions for management chronic limb ischemia at two-year clinical follow-up. Bioresorbable are biodegradable scaffolds that provide short-term support before undergoing intravascular degradation. A recent trial reported excellent 36-month vessel patency rates simple infrapopliteal arterial treated with scaffold. Methods This single-center,...
Background: Patent foramen ovale (PFO) has been linked to cryptogenic stroke, and closure reported improve clinical outcomes.However, there are no clear guidelines direct device sizing.This study sought use patient characteristics echocardiographic findings create a prediction score for sizing.Methods: This was retrospective review of patients undergoing percutaneous PFO at our institution between July 2010 December 2014.Demographic were recorded, all pre-and intraprocedural echocardiography...
Abstract Background The transradial approach (TRA) for catheter interventions decreases vascular complications and bleeding versus transfemoral approach. Reducing time to hemostasis preventing radial artery occlusion (RAO) following TRA are important incompletely realized aspirations. Objectives This first‐in‐human study sought evaluate the efficacy of a novel, topically applied compound (hydrophobically modified polysaccharide‐chitosan, hm‐P) plus minimal required pneumatic compression,...
Paravalvular leak (PVL), defined as retrograde blood flow adjacent to an annuloplasty ring (Figure 1 a, Video 1) or prosthetic valve b, 2), is a rare but serious complication of heart surgery.Though most PVLs are asymptomatic, 1-5% patients develop clinical consequences such failure, endocarditis, hemolysis [1,2].Surgical repair may be necessary in severe cases, however for those who at high surgical risk, percutaneous approach can performed occlude these defects [1,3-9].Real-time...
Introduction: In the cardiac catheterization laboratory (CCL), use of a mechanical chest compression (MCC) device allows acute life support (ACLS) and percutaneous interventions to occur simultaneously. Use MCC in CCL ensures adequate compressions without relying on manual providers. This is especially important context recent studies that have shown therapies offered increase survival patients with arrest. Furthermore, circulatory (MCS) has been improve outcomes arrest, but it not known...
Paravalvular leak (PVL) is a rare complication of mitral valve surgery that may result in serious clinical sequelae—including heart failure or hemolytic anemia. Treatment these defects be achieved with either percutaneous open surgical repair, but recently, approaches have become more popular due to their lower procedural risk. Percutaneous repair PVL can performed from various access sites, including the femoral artery, vein (via transeptal), via transapical left ventricular access. The...
•Extravasation of contrast is a dreaded complication PCI.•Swift assessment for coronary perforation key to avoid catastrophic complications.•Wire arteries known cause coronary-cameral fistulas.•Combined fluoroscopy and echocardiography enable more precise diagnosis.•Most fistulas are benign require no treatment.
Introduction: Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) provides cardiac and respiratory support serves as a bridge to definitive therapy or recovery. However, ECPR is resource intensive evidence of clear survival benefit lacking. In this study, we investigated the cost-utility (cost/QALY) in arrest patients treated at our institution. Methods: We performed retrospective review who suffered institution between 2012 2017. Charges for all medical care associated with subsequent...

Background: Transcatheter pulmonic valve implantation (TPVI) is a minimally invasive procedure that treats patients with dysfunction of the or right-ventricular-to-pulmonary artery conduit. TPVI procedures have traditionally been performed under general anesthesia (GA), yet conscious sedation (CS) has emerged as an alternative to GA. This study assessed feasibility CS-TPVI compared GA-TPVI.Methods: We retrospective review 19 consecutive undergoing CS The primary endpoint was success, defined...
Abstract Background Cardiac tamponade is a potentially life-threatening complication of pericardial effusion. Pericardiocentesis with drainage the mainstay treatment for patients effusion and cardiac tamponade. Percutaneous balloon pericardiotomy (PBP) an adjunct to pericardiocentesis that may alleviate risk recurrent repeat procedures. However, efficacy PBP plus compared alone not clear. Purpose We sought determine whether was associated less recurrence than alone. Methods conducted...
