Abstract Background and Aims Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) are critical for preventing sudden cardiac death (SCD) in arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC). This study aims to identify cross-continental differences utilization of primary prevention ICDs survival free from sustained arrhythmia (VA) ARVC. Methods was a retrospective analysis ARVC patients without prior VA enrolled clinical registries 11 countries throughout Europe North America. Patients were...
Abstract Background and Aims Transcatheter pulmonary valve implantation (TPVI) is indicated to treat right-ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) dysfunction related congenital heart disease (CHD). Outcomes of TPVI with the SAPIEN 3 that are insufficiently documented were investigated in EUROPULMS3 registry 3-TPVI. Methods Patient-related, procedural, follow-up outcome data retrospectively assessed this observational cohort from 35 centres 15 countries. Results Data for 840 consecutive patients...
According to the latest guidelines of European and American medical societies, genetic testing (GT) is essential in cardiovascular diseases for establishing diagnosis, predicting prognosis, enabling initiation disease-modifying therapy, preventing sudden cardiac death. The GT result may be relevant cascade patient's relatives, planning his/her profession physical activity, procreative counseling. This position statement has been prepared due scarcity Poland need expand its availability. We...
Background Current indications for percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) are limited to patients who had their outflow tracts repaired with the use of a “full” condui— homograft . Patients after patch repair believed have an unfavorable anatomy PPVI. Objectives To evaluate novel Edwards SAPIEN TM treatment moderate and severe regurgitation tetralogy Fallot (TF) right ventricular (RVOT) patch. Methods PPVI was intended in 10 (age 21–39 years, 2 ♂) regurgitant fraction 30–59%,...
Millions of physically active individuals worldwide use heart rate monitors ( HRM s) to control their exercise intensity. In many cases, the indicates an unusually high HR ) or even arrhythmias during training. Unfortunately, studies assessing reliability these devices help disturbances do not exist. We examined 142 regularly training endurance runners and cyclists, aged 18‐51 years, with unexplained abnormalities indicated by various s assess utility in diagnosing exertion‐induced...
To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) with routine prestenting a bare metal stent (BMS).PPVI is relatively new method treating patients repaired congenital heart disease (CHD). Results PPVI performed have never been reported.Consecutive who underwent for homograft dysfunction BMS were studied. The schedule follow-up assessment comprised clinical evaluation, cardiovascular magnetic resonance, transthoracic echocardiography, chest X-ray to...
To compare indexed right ventricular (RV) end-diastolic volume (RVEDVi) and the ratio of RV to left (LV) (RV/LV ratio) in prediction significant pulmonary regurgitation (PR) after tetralogy Fallot (TOF) repair assess sex differences RV/LV ratio.The ethics committee approved this retrospective single-center study, patients or their parents guardians signed written informed consent. RVEDVi, ratio, PR were measured with use magnetic resonance imaging 155 consecutive repaired TOF (mean age, 29.2...
Mutations in the lamin A/C gene are variably phenotypically expressed; however, it is unclear whether circulating cardiac biomarkers helpful detection and risk assessment of cardiolaminopathies. We sought to assess (1) clinical characteristics including serum biomarkers: high sensitivity troponin T (hsTnT) N-terminal prohormone brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) clinically stable cardiolaminopathy patients, (2) outcome among pathogenic/likely pathogenic (LMNA) mutation carriers. Our...
Abstract Purpose: To compare right ventricular (RV) size and function between patients with combined pulmonary regurgitation (PR) plus RV outflow tract (RVOT) obstruction (RVOTO) isolated PR. Materials Methods: Consecutive individuals significant PR (PR fraction ≥20%) after tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) repair who underwent cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) were included. Patients additional hemodynamic abnormalities (residual septal defect, extracardiac shunt, and/or more than mild at a...
Data regarding long-term follow-up of radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) accessory pathways (APs) in patients with Ebstein's anomaly (EA) are limited. The procedures challenging due to multiple or wide APs.Analysis was performed on clinical and periprocedural data EA referred the centre order perform AP. group consisted 22 (female 40.9%, mean age 33.6 ± 19.1 years). utilized electrocardiogram Holter monitoring.Twenty-two had 33 (8 APs, 11 broad AP). Twenty-nine different arrhythmias...
Little is known about the distribution and clinical course of patients with inherited arrhythmia syndrome (IAS) concomitant atrial arrhythmias (AAs).
Patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) experience difficulties in neurocognitive functioning the acute phase of illness which might be related to clinical presentation, but also apparently remitted state after weight recovery. Among most commonly reported persistent deficits is cognitive inflexibility, can interpreted as a vulnerability trait or “neuropsychological scar” reflecting detrimental effect prolonged semi-starvation patients long duration illness. Studies adolescent samples relatively...
The impact of ultramarathon (UM) runs on the organs competitors, especially elite individuals, is poorly understood. We tested a 36-year-old UM runner before, 1-2 days after, and 10-11 after winning 24-h as part Polish Championships (258.228 km). During each testing session, we performed an electrocardiogram (ECG), transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), 31P spectroscopy (31P MRS), blood tests. Initially, increased cholesterol low-density lipoprotein...
