Abstract There exists very limited published research on what actually happens during police interviews with suspects, and the which does exist has identified a number of weaknesses. In attempts to remedy this, some governments have brought in legislative changes forces sought improve their training. The present study examined extent psychological tactics literature were used by major force England. Audio tape recordings assessed forensic psychologists. It was found that coercive...
Paravalvular leak (PVL) occurs in 5% to 17% of patients following surgical valve replacement. Percutaneous device closure represents an alternative repeat surgery.All UK and Ireland centers undertaking percutaneous PVL submitted data the Registry. Data were analyzed for association with death major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) at follow-up.Three hundred eight procedures attempted 259 20 (2004-2015). Patient age was 67±13 years; 28% female. The main indications heart failure (80%)...
Postinfarction ventricular septal defect carries a grim prognosis. Surgical repair offers reasonable outcomes in patients who survive healing phase. Percutaneous device implantation represents potentially attractive early alternative.Postinfarction closure was attempted 53 from 11 centers (1997-2012; aged 72±11 years; 42% female). Nineteen percent had previous surgical closure. Myocardial infarction anterior (66%) or inferior (34%). Time myocardial to procedure 13 (first and third quartiles,...
Abstract Aims Post-infarction ventricular septal defect (PIVSD) is a mechanical complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with poor prognosis. Surgical repair the mainstay treatment, although percutaneous closure increasingly undertaken. Methods and resuts Patients treated surgical or PIVSD (2010–2021) were identified at 16 UK centres. Case note review was The primary outcome long-term mortality. Patient groups allocated based upon initial management (percutaneous surgical)....
AbstractThe aim of this research was to identify personal and environmental factors influencing individual susceptibility motion sickness during road transport. A questionnaire survey 3256 coach travellers conducted. Information on passenger characteristics, travel regularity, activity travel, use antimotion drugs self-reported were collected over 56 private hire journeys. Details the environment (visibility, temperature seating) also recorded. The relationship these variables with illness...
Resynchronization pacing is an effective symptomatic treatment for heart failure patients with prolongation of the QRS duration (QRSd). Dyssynchronous contraction left ventricle also observed normal QRSd. We set out to determine how electrical activation ventricular (LV) free wall differed between bundle-branch block (LBBB) and QRSd if synchrony improved during in QRSd.Twenty-two were implanted resynchronization pacemakers, 13 LBBB (mean QRS, 171 ms) 9 <120 ms (mean, 100 ms). LV lead...
IAs are found in 2.3% of adults; the mean age at detection is 52 years. Prevalence <0.5% young adults. Early studies suggest that 10%-50% patients with aortic coarctation have IAs. Screening recommendations variable. We sought to examine prevalence through screening MRA.Consecutive older than 16 years undergoing brain MRA between May 1999 and October 2007 were included. was performed by using a 1.5T scanner 3D time-of-flight protocol; simultaneous MR imaging heart aorta. Cerebral MRAs...
Stenting for aortic coarctation is known to be effective in the medium term. Aneurysm formation following stent implantation a recognised complication. However, data regarding wall injury and integrity placement are sparse.We report comprehensive clinical, echocardiographic prospective CT follow-up stenting from single centre. Methods Full analysis of all patients undergoing balloon expandable procedures tertiary congenital cardiac unit.Between October 2002 April 2008, we performed 102 on 88...
Abstract Relationships between vehicle motion and passenger sickness have been investigated in a survey of 3256 passengers travelling on 56 mainland UK bus or coach journeys. Vehicle was measured throughout all journeys, yielding over 110 h six-axis data from five types 17 different drivers. Overall, 28.4% reported feelings illness, 12.8% nausea 1.7% vomiting during travel. Passenger illness ratings increased with exposure to lateral at low frequencies (< 0.5 Hz). Motion other axes...
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...
The relative importance of vehicle motion, a view the road ahead and passenger characteristics in causation motion sickness transport has been investigated using survey data from 3256 coach passengers measurements motion. Overall, 28% said they felt unwell during travel. Prior experience sickness, travel regularity age were factors most highly correlated with illness. Increased poorer forward vision also Little difference illness was apparent good ahead, regardless exposure, although alone...
