Combined mitral valve replacement (MVR) and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) procedures have been the norm for patients with concomitant disease (MVD) (CAD) no large-scale data on their safety efficacy.
Infection from the dengue virus can manifest with a variety of clinical presentations. Cardiac involvement fever is rarely reported phenomenon significant morbidity and mortality. We illustrate case 47-year-old male admitted to hospital fevers. The course was complicated cardiac arrest. Clinicians need be weary this rare occurrence particularly in areas known prevalence for prompt recognition improved patient outcomes.
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICPIs) are a breakthrough therapy in oncology and have been approved by the Food Drug Administration for treatment of several malignancies. ICPIs reported to cause immune-mediated damage islet cells leading ICPI-induced type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). These reports described patients presenting with severe diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). We present case 69-year-old Caucasian male 2 suffering from non-small cell lung cancer undergoing pembrolizumab, an...
Life-threatening cardiovascular complications can occur as a result of Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) induced autonomic dysfunction necessitating the need for early recognition and potential cardiac pacing. We present case 69-year-old female who was admitted to hospital worsening fatigue, bilateral lower extremity weakness inability ambulate two days. Five days later, she experienced large fluctuations in blood pressure, appeared diaphoretic, had spells bradycardia. This soon followed by an...
In patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) and concomitant coronary artery disease (CAD), the relative merits of a combined percutaneous (transcatheter valve implantation [TAVI] intervention [PCI]] versus surgical approach (surgical replacement [SAVR] bypass graft [CABG]) remain unknown.To determine utility approaches in AS CAD.The National Readmission Database (NRD) (2015-2019) was queried to identify all cases TAVI+PCI SAVR+CABG. The adjusted odds ratios (aOR) mortality, stroke, its...
To study the effect of timing thrombolytic therapy, cardiac risk factors and site infarction on S.T. resolution post thrombolysis in STEMI patients.This was a descriptive hospital based conducted at Hayatabad Medical Complex Peshawar. The duration our 5 months from February 2015 to June 2015. Diagnosis symptomatic patients ECG recognized. Definition Myocardial Infarction. Time onset chest pain presentation emergency noted through history along with time streptokinase. recordings were taken...
The objective was to assess current training preferences, expertise, and comfort with transfemoral access (TFA) transradial (TRA) amongst cardiovascular fellows teaching faculty in the United States. As TRA continues dominate field of interventional cardiology, there is a concern that trainees may become less proficient femoral approach.
Denosumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody that being increasingly used for the treatment of osteoporosis and prevention skeletal-related events (SREs) in bone metastases from primary tumours. It has improved efficacy, better tolerability convenient administration via subcutaneous route, comparison with bisphosphonates; however, it been reported to cause severe hypocalcaemia certain high-risk individuals. We report case 71-year-old man history haemodialysis-dependent end-stage renal...
Thyrotoxicosis factitia is a hyperthyroid state due to the accidental or deliberate thyroxine ingestion. It can have many complications depending upon organ involved. We present case of heavy built athlete presenting with cardiac arrest, who was found be abused hormone for bodybuilding. Electrocardiogram (EKG) significant junctional arrhythmias along interval supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) and bradycardia. The patient ultimately expired failed resuscitation. To our knowledge, this first...
Potent P2Y12 inhibitors Ticagrelor or Prasugrel (T/P) have a stronger anti-platelet effect compared to clopidogrel (C). Data comparing T/P C is lacking in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) on oral anticoagulation (OAC) vitamin-K antagonist (VKA) direct anticoagulants (DOACs) for Atrial Fibrillation (AF). With this review we sought compare versus (vs) ACS OAC AF. A total of 8,119 who underwent Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) between January 2016 - August 2023 were...
Purulent pericarditis secondary to bacterial infections is rarely seen in the current era of broad-spectrum antibiotics. Complications tend be higher comparison viral or idiopathic etiologies cases pericarditis.
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) helps identify coronary artery disease of different etiologies. Vasospasm from OCT catheter is a rarely reported complication that more commonly seen in the right artery. We report case OCT-catheter induced vasospasm left anterior descending resolved with administration nitroglycerine. Interventionalists need to weary occurrence catheter-related spasm avoid stenting when not necessary.
Introduction: Takotsubo Syndrome, or stress-induced cardiomyopathy (SIC) is a transient dysfunction of the left ventricle. Emerging data has shown rise in number cases recent times. In January 2020 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) declared Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) public healthcare emergency. Given impact COVID-19 on economic psychosocial factors individuals across globe, we sought to study effect incidence SIC at our institution. Research Question: Has stress...
