Background: Diuretic therapy is a critical part of the antihypertensive regimen in patients with resistant HTN; however, ideal diuretic has not been defined. We hypothesized that BP response dependent on type. In current study, hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ), chlorthalidone, and loop diuretics was compared for treatment HTN. Methods: Data from clinic visits adults who were referred HTN to Clinic at University Alabama Birmingham between January 2008 May 2013 analyzed. Changes office by type...
Introduction: Cardiac device extraction procedures are associated with increased risk of in-hospital mortality. The objective this study was to determine factors for mortality patients undergoing cardiac extraction. Methods: We studied removal between January 2016 and December 2019 at a single tertiary care center. Baseline patient characteristics, comorbidities, preoperative laboratory data were obtained by database query (Table 1) . outcome interest death following Odds ratios (OR)...
Background: Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with many clinical manifestations including respiratory failure and cardiovascular compromise. Objectives: We examine outcomes in critically ill individuals COVID-19 who develop atrial tachyarrhythmias (ATA). Methods: collected data from electrocardiograms the electronic medical record of positive (COVID+) negative (COVID-) admitted to our intensive care unit between February 29 June 28, 2020. compared demographic characteristics,...
