Background Left ventricular ( LV ) thrombi during Takotsubo syndrome represent a potential complication and can be associated with cerebrovascular embolic events. The aim of this study was to evaluate the exact incidence, predictors, management strategies in patients syndrome. Methods Results We enrolled 541 consecutive multicenter international registry. Clinical features echocardiographic data at admission, hospitalization, after 3 months were evaluated. Survival rates for long‐term...

Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is an acute, reversible heart failure featured by significant rates of in-hospital complications. There a lack data for risk stratification during hospitalization.To derive simple clinical score prediction complications among patients with TTS.In this prognostic study, 1007 consecutive were enrolled in the German and Italian Stress Cardiomyopathy (GEIST) registry from July 1, 2007, through December 31, 2017, identified as derivation cohort; 946 Spanish Registry...

We evaluated the efficacy of an ablation strategy empirically targeting pulmonary veins (PVs) and posterior wall (PW) prevalence clinical impact extrapulmonary trigger inducibility in a large cohort patients with persistent atrial fibrillation (PerAF).A total 1803 PerAF were prospectively enrolled. All underwent vein antrum isolation (PVAI) extended to entire PW. A standardized protocol was performed confirm PVAI elicit any triggers originating from non-PV sites. initiating sustained...

Summary Background Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction ( LVOTO ) may complicate an episode of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy TTC ), potentially leading to cardiogenic shock. Beta‐blockers are considered the most suitable treatment for such complication. Aim study The objective this was evaluate hemodynamic effects, safety, and feasibility a selective beta‐blocker β 1) with short half‐life, esmolol, in subjects episode. Methods Ninety‐six consecutive patients were enrolled multicenter...

Background To assess levels of kinesiophobia (fear movement) in patients hospitalized for acute cardiovascular disease. Hypothesis Increased can be found subjects Methods Seventy‐four consecutive admitted coronary syndrome and 58 heart failure were enrolled the study assessed by Tampa Scale evaluation kinesiophobia. Subjects compared with a reference population stable artery disease healthy controls. Results No significant differences between terms kinesiophobia, even considering rates high...

Highlights• Schistocytes are fragments of red blood cells which may be encountered in the peripheral smear patients suffering from a variety microangiopathic diseases.• In hospitalized COVID-19 at different stages disease severity, schistocyte count ≥ 1% was documented approximately 70% patients.• Evidence myocardial injury observed 87.5% all who had schistocytes 1%.• serve as simple and inexpensive biomarker to identify high-risk subpopulation with latent systemic microvascular damage...

Intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) is a useful but operator-dependent tool for left atrial (LA) anatomical rendering during fibrillation (AF) ablation. The CARTOSOUND FAM Module, new deep learning (DL) imaging algorithm, has the potential to overcome this limitation. This study aims evaluate feasibility of algorithm compared cardiac computed tomography (CT) in patients undergoing AF ablation.In 28 ablation, baseline patient information was recorded, and three-dimensional (3D) shells LA body...

Background Prolonged QT corrected (QTc) intervals are associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes both in healthy and high‐risk populations. Our objective was to evaluate the QTc during a takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) episodes their potential prognostic role. Hypothesis Dynamic changes of interval hospitalization for TTC could be outcome at follow‐up. Methods Fifty‐two consecutive patients hospitalized were enrolled. Twelve‐lead electrocardiogram (ECG) performed within 3 h after...

Abstract Background Persistent ST ‐segment elevation in acute coronary syndrome is associated with both short and long‐term complications. By contrast, there limited information about ‐elevation its evolution during takotsubo (stress) cardiomyopathy ( TTC ). Aim To evaluate whether persistent downsloping the early stages of might correlate clinical events. Methods One‐hundred fifty‐eight consecutive subjects were prospectively enrolled assessed by electrocardiogram. Patients classified two...
