BackgroundRemote ischaemic conditioning with transient ischaemia and reperfusion applied to the arm has been shown reduce myocardial infarct size in patients ST-elevation infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). We investigated whether remote could incidence of cardiac death hospitalisation for heart failure at 12 months.MethodsWe did an international investigator-initiated, prospective, single-blind, randomised controlled trial (CONDI-2/ERIC-PPCI) 33...
The rationale and study design for the multicentre, randomized, controlled CONDI2/ERIC-PPCI are discussed.
To review the 8-year experience of Department Esophagogastric Surgery, First Surgical University Hospital in Belgrade surgical management Zenker's diverticula (ZD).Between January 2000 and 2009, 52 patients underwent procedure for treatment ZD. Complete preoperative workup including symptom evaluation large variety structural functional diagnostic procedures were conducted before surgery. After operative detailed follow-up regular intervals up to 3 years.Preoperative marked higher incidence...
Since serial analyses of NT-proBNP in patients with acute coronary syndromes have shown that levels measured during a chronic, later phase are better predictor prognosis and indicator left ventricular function than the an phase, we sought to assess association NT-proBNP, 6 months after myocardial infarction (AMI), traditional risk factors, characteristics in-hospital early postinfarction course, as well its prognostic value optimal cut-points ensuing 1-year follow-up.Fasting venous blood...
Despite technological advances in diagnosis and treatment, in-hospital mortality with acute aortic dissection type B is still about 11%. The purpose of this study was to assess the risk factors for early long-term adverse outcomes patients treated medically or conventional open surgery.The present included 104 consecutive our Center from January 1st, 1998 2007. Patient demographic clinical characteristics as well complications were reviewed. Univariate multivariate testing performed identify...
The present survey aims to describe the intensive cardiac care unit organization and admission policies in Europe.A total of 228 hospitals (61% academic) from 27 countries participated this survey. In addition organizational aspects units, including classification levels, data on diagnoses were gathered consecutive patients who admitted during a two-day period. Admission evaluated by comparing illness severity with level. Gross national income was used differentiate high-income (n=13)...
Abstract Background Although chest trauma happens very often, accompanying tricuspid valve injuries occur rarely and may be manifested by scarce symptoms signs. Pericardial rupture with cardiac herniation is even a bigger rarity. Transthoracic echocardiography plays key role in the diagnosis of but limited value herniation. Case presentation We present case 58-year-old man who experienced severe car accident. Symptoms right heart failure occurred 10 years after injury, due to loss leaflet...
The incidence of peptic ulcer-induced gastric outlet obstruction is constantly declining. aim this study was to present our results in the treatment with highly selective vagotomy and gastrojejunostomy.This retrospective clinical included 13 patients operated higly gastrojejunostomy. A 3-year follow-up conducted including interview upper gastrointestinal endoscopy on 1 3 years after surgery.The most common preoperative symptom vomiting (in 92.3% patients). mean body mass index 16.3 +/- 3.1...
Objective: Patients who have clinical evidence of hypertension (HT) after coronary artery bypass surgery (CABS) a poor prognosis in expression acute myocardial infarction (AMI), as one the MACE. Unrelieved anxiety can produce an increase sympathetic nervous system activity leading to cardiac workload. The purpose this study was evaluate effectiveness music therapy on patients with HT and AMI, CABS. Design method: 296 (males 78.4%, mean age 59.4 ± 2.4 yrs) AMI previous CABS been selected from...
To present a 19-year experience of the prognosis patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and prior coronary artery bypass surgery (CABS), 748 AMI after CABS (postbypass group) control group 1080 AMI, but without CABS, were analyzed. All indexes infarct size lower in postbypass group. There was more ventricular fibrillation In-hospital mortality similar (p = 0.3675). In follow-up period, had heart failure, recurrent reinfarction, unstable angina than did patients. Cumulative survival...
Introduction. Ventricular septal rupture (VSR) in the acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a rare but very serious complication, still associated with high mortality, despite significant improvements pharmacological and surgical treatment. Therefore, hybrid approaches are introduced as new therapeutical options. Case Outline. We present an urgent approach, consisting of initial percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) infarct-related artery, followed by immediate closure ventricular rupture,...
Investigation of hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) as an important risk factor for pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE), which represents a most dangerous consequence unique phenomenon venous still suffers from sometimes conflicting or inadequately clarified results. The role homocysteine in the clinical manifestation this life-threatening disease and its treatment (in any further information may be decisive) requires detailed examination. purpose study is to determine differences HHcy incidence...
