Phase II and III randomized clinical trials were identified by searching the MEDLINE/PubMed, Cochrane Library and ASCO Meeting abstracts, from inception to June 2022. 1.53), but no significant difference was found for any-grade hypertension, and for vascular events. 2.97) and PFS (HR 0.49, 95% CI: 0.39–0.63)

In early 2022, the ABIM updated its fee structure to help physicians pay less over time to maintain their certifications. Heart Failure and Cardiomyopathy 19% Valvular Disease 15% Pericardial Disease 3% Congenital Heart Disease 3% Vascular Diseases 5% Systemic Hypertension and Hypotension 8.5% How much does the exam cost?

An old formal echo was found from 6 mo ago: Dilated right ventricle with septal flattening and estimated right ventricular systolic pressure of 70 mmHg (significant pulmonary hypertension). She ruled out for acute MI by troponins. See further discussion of R/S ratio greater than 1 in lead V1 by Ken below.

The pipeline of algorithms likely to clear regulatory hurdles and enter the cardiac market over the next 12-18 months include those for Pulmonary Hypertension, Cardiac Amyloidosis, Diastolic dysfunction, and Hyperkalaemia. In April 2022 BMS had received FDA approval for Camzyos, the first drug developed specifically for targeting HCM.

This suggests that there is pulmonary hypertension and thus possibly RVH. The estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure is 31 mmHg + RA pressure. In a patient with RVH — the finding of a qR pattern has been closely correlated with pulmonary hypertension. Right atrial enlargement, severe.

The morphology of V2-V4 is very specific in my experience for acute right heart strain (which has many potential etiologies, but none more common and important in EM than acute pulmonary embolism). CT angiogram showed extensive saddle pulmonary embolism. He had multiple cardiac arrests with ROSC regained each time. This is a quiz.
