Background A fragmented QRS complex (fQRS) is caused by conduction abnormalities of the ventricle secondary to myocardial ischemia and/or scar in patients with infarction. However, implications fQRS development coronary artery disease those without a remain unknown. Methods We studied electrocardiograms (ECGs) obtained from 150 (60.5 ± 8.5 years, 102 men) ischemia, which was confirmed performing both, nuclear exercise stress test and angiography. also ECGs 601 (58.5 10.0 315 who showed...
Background: Studies on the efficacy of implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) therapy for primary prevention in Asian patients are relatively lacking compared to those secondary prevention.Also, it is important stratify which will benefit from ICD prevention.Methods: Of 483 consecutive who received new implantation 9 centers Korea, 305 with reduced left ventricular systolic function and/or documented fibrillation/tachycardia were enrolled and divided into (n = 167) groups 138).Results:...
Background and Objectives: There is insufficient evidence regarding the optimal treatment for asymptomatic carotid stenosis.Methods: Bayesian cross-design network meta-analyses were performed to compare safety efficacy among artery stenting (CAS), endarterectomy (CEA), medical (MT).We identified 18 studies (4 randomized controlled trials [RCTs] 14 nonrandomized, comparative [NRCSs]) comparing CAS with CEA, 4 RCTs CEA MT from MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, Embase databases. Results:The risk...
Abstract Background Implantable loop recorders (ILRs) can provide an enhanced possibility to detect atrial fibrillation (AF), but the accuracy, especially positive predictive value (PPV), is controversial. This study aimed evaluate accuracy of ILRs for detecting AF through a comparison with Holter. Method and results Thirteen patients who underwent ablation were enrolled. implanted in all patients, scheduled have Holter monitorings after procedure. The incidence was compared between two...
As COVID-19 spreads worldwide, cardiac injury in patients infected with becomes a significant concern.Thus, this study investigates the impact of several electrocardiogram parameters and disease severity patients.The deceased showed increased dispersion QTc Tpe-c compared surviving (78.2±41.1 vs. 40.8±24.6ms 60.2±37.3vs 40.8±24.5 ms, both p<0.05).The more than 56.1 ms could predict mortality multivariate analysis (Odd ratio 8.06, 95% Confidence Interval 2.843-25.750).A prolonged be an...
Abstract Background It is difficult to evaluate the risk of patients with severe renal dysfunction before surgery due various limitations despite high postoperative cardiac events. This study aimed investigate value a newly reclassified Revised Cardiac Risk Index (RCRI) that incorporates QRS fragmentation (fQRS) as predictor events in dysfunction. Methods Among dysfunction, 256 consecutive who underwent both nuclear stress test and noncardiac were evaluated. We RCRI fragmented (FRCRI) by...
