Patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) and left ventricular (LV) dysfunction demonstrate improvement in injection fraction (LVEF) after valve replacement (AVR). The timing magnitude of recovery patients very low LVEF (≤ 25%) surgical or transcatheter AVR is not well studied.
The timing and nature of risk factors for reoperation after the arterial switch operation in setting d-transposition great arteries requires further elucidation.A total 403 patients who underwent from 1986 to 2017 were reviewed. Institutional preference was pulmonary artery reconstruction using a pantaloon patch fresh autologous pericardium. targets coronary reimplantation identified by intermittent root distension. Multivariable analysis used identify reoperation.Median follow-up 8.6 years...
COVID-19 infection and the vaccines have been associated with rare cases of pericarditis. We present a case constrictive pericarditis (CP) following vaccine.A 19-year-old healthy male started having progressive abdominal pain, emesis, dyspnoea, pleuritic chest pain 2 weeks after second dose Pfizer vaccine. Computed tomography angiography revealed bilateral pleural effusions pericardial thickening effusion. Cardiac catheterization showed ventricular interdependence. magnetic resonance (CMR)...
Abstract: Unfractionated heparin is the most common anticoagulant used during percutaneous coronary intervention. Practice guidelines recommend an initial weight-based bolus dose between 70 and 100 U/kg to achieve target activated clotting time (ACT) of 250–300 seconds. The impact severe obesity on dosing not well studied. We performed a retrospective analysis 424 patients undergoing intervention who received for anticoagulation. collected detailed data cumulative administration measured ACT...
