Abstract Aims While pulmonary embolism (PE) appears to be a major issue in COVID-19, data remain sparse. We aimed describe the risk factors and baseline characteristics of patients with PE cohort COVID-19 patients. Methods results In retrospective multicentre observational study, we included consecutive hospitalized for COVID-19. Patients without computed tomography angiography (CTPA)-proven diagnosis those who were directly admitted an intensive care unit (ICU) excluded. Among 1240 (58.1%...
Background: In patients undergoing paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) ablation, pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) alone fails in maintaining sinus rhythm up to one third of after a first catheter ablation. Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), as an endocrine-active organ, could play role the recurrence AF Objective: To evaluate predictive value clinical, echocardiographic, biological parameters and epicardial fat density measured by computed tomography scan (CT-scan) on PAF who underwent...
The prevalence and impact of coronary emboli (CE) in patients with ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) atrial fibrillation (AF) have not been specifically studied. objective was to describe the clinical characteristics outcomes AF CE a large series STEMI.
Abstract Background Single-sampling strategy (SSS) for blood cultures (BC) has not been evaluated in infective endocarditis (IE). We assessed the diagnostic performance of SSS vs conventional multi-sampling (MSS) IE diagnosis. Methods Patients suspected were prospectively enrolled 8 tertiary-care centers. Five BC bottle pairs sampled from each patient. Pairs 1, 2 and 3 simultaneously, followed by additional separate (4 5) more than one hour later. 2, emulated 4, 5 MSS. The sensitivity...
This observational CMR study aims to characterize left-ventricular (LV) damage, which may be specifically attributed COVID-19 and is distant in time from the acute phase, through serial performed during first year patients with no prior cardiac disease.This included consecutive without any history of disease but a peak troponin-Ic > 50 ng/ml at COVID-wave. All had months after some an additional end monitor LV function, remodeling, abnormalities evocative myositis myocarditis - i.e.,...
This study sought to assess the value of myocardial deformation using strain echocardiography in patients with mitral valve prolapse (MVP) and severe ventricular arrhythmia evaluate its impact on rhythmic risk stratification.MVP is a common valvular affection an overly benign course. Unpredictably, selected will present arrhythmia.Patients MVP as only cause aborted SCD (MVP-aSCD: fibrillation monomorphic polymorphic tachycardia) no other obvious reversible were identified. Nonconsecutive...
Prediction of outcome in 87 patients following acute bleeding oesophageal and gastric varices due to portal hypertension from chronic liver disease was studied at our hospital over a 30-month period. The overall mortality rate 26 per cent (23/87), with the operative (50 cent) being more than triple non-operative (14 cent). initial prothrombin time ratio (PTR) alone significantly different survivors non-survivors both operated non-operated patients. only survivor whole material PTR greater or...
Introduction: This cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) study aims to determine whether changes in systemic vascular resistance (SVR), obtained from CMR flow sequences, might explain the significant long-term left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) observed subjects with no cardiac disease history. Methods: Cohort without any known but high rates of hypertension and obesity, underwent phase-contrast sequences both at baseline a median follow-up 5.2 years. Longitudinal EF were...
Laser balloon (LB) has emerged as an interesting strategy for pulmonary vein isolation in paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF). A third-generation LB recently been developed, allowing a continuous ablation set. We aimed to compare the results from our center's experience with second and LBs cohort of matched patients who had undergone radiofrequency (RFA) contact-force catheters. This retrospective monocenter case-control study included first 50 AF ablations (26 24 LB) RFA controls, on age,...
Abstract Background Right ventricular evaluation is essential in the context of chronic mitral regurgitation (MR). Chronic MR associated with a progressive cardiac remodeling enlargement and dysfunction all chambers, development functional tricuspid (TR). Besides, right ventricle (RV) TR have been shown to influence patient prognosis. Purpose The aim this study was evaluate simple combined echocardiographic parameters analysing heart – pulmonary circulation unit, according severity MR....
