Background Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction is a recognised outcome in patients with myocardialinfarction, although heart failure with reduced ejection fraction is more common. Among patients with myocardialinfarction, a 1-SD increase in pulse pressure was associated with a 1.60-fold m/s had a 2.10-fold
Heart failure (HF) is one of the significant complications in patients with myocardialinfarction (MI), leading to increased risk for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. 2 However, mortality rate is greater in HF cases developing >3 days following MI compared with less than or equal to 3 days after MI.
Background Cardiogenic shock (CS) induced by severe aortic stenosis (AS) is a life-threatening condition with high mortality. Aim This study aimed to systematically review and analyse the existing evidence on outcomes of emergency transcatheter aortic valve implantation (eTAVI) and emergency balloon aortic valvuloplasty (eBAV) in CS patients.
Background Despite limited beneficial evidence, mechanical circulatory support (MCS) is commonly used in patients with acute myocardialinfarction-related cardiogenic shock (AMI-CS). MCS was deployed in 516 patients (23.3%), of which the intra-aortic balloon pump was used most frequently (n=253, 49.0%).
Small aortic annulus poses a major challenge in aortic valve replacement due to the increased risk of prosthesispatient mismatch (PPM) and increased surgical risk. In recent years, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as a popular alternative to the traditional surgical aortic valve replacement.
Background Myocardialinfarction (MI) has been shown to induce fibrotic remodelling of the mitral and tricuspid valves. It is unknown whether MI also induces pathological remodelling of the aortic valve and alters aortic stenosis (AS) progression. vs –0.04±0.04 cm 2 /m 2 /year; p=0.004).
Aortic dissection is a severe cardiovascular condition associated with high mortality rates, particularly in cases of Stanford type A aortic dissection (TAAD). Myocardialinfarction with non-obstructive corona.
Prosthetic valve thrombosis (PVT) in aortic valve and its complication coronary embolism is a very rare condition. We present a young patient with acute myocardi. Diagnosis and treatment process is challenging.
Background Redo sternotomy aortic root surgery is technically demanding, and the evidence on outcomes is mostly from retrospective, small sample, single-centre studies. We report the trend, early clinical results and outcome predictors of redo aortic root replacement over 20 years in the United Kingdom. Age >59 (OR: 2.99, CI: 1.92–4.65,

BackgroundProtruding aortic plaque is known to be associated with an increased risk for future cardiac and cerebrovascular events. Coronary plaque characteristics were compared to evaluate coronary plaque vulnerability in patients with protruding aortic plaque on computed tomography angiography.
This potential vascular market for this product family is measured in millions of procedures per year, including cardiac interventions such as structural heart procedures and electrophysiology procedures, peripheral vascular interventions including renal interventions, endovascular aortic repair, and carotid artery interventions.
Background and aims Randomised controlled trials comparing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) were performed in highly selected populations and data regarding long-term secondary complications beyond mortality are scarce. All-cause mortality at 1 year (HR 1.21; 95% CI 1.02
This is a value typical for a large subacute MI, n ormal value 48 hours after myocardialinfarction is associated with Post-Infarction Regional Pericarditis ( PIRP ). Mechanical complications secondary to myocardialinfarction are infrequent due to most patients receiving revascularization quite rapidly.
We report a 42-year-old male patient who was diagnosed with acute myocardialinfarction (AMI), and subsequently underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for revascularization. The patient was transferred to the cardiac intensive care unit for intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) due to frequent malignant arrhythmia after PCI.
Objective Postprocedural ischaemic and bleeding risks after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) remain a major concern. Ischaemic events were defined as myocardialinfarction, stroke, transient ischaemic attack or peripheral embolism at 1 year.
Previous medical interventions included a spectrum of procedures, including catheter-directed thrombectomy for popliteal artery aneurysms with thrombosis, vascular bypass grafting for cerebral-anterior communicating artery aneurysms and arch replacement and stent implantation for aortic dissecting aneurysms.
Background:Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is highly prevalent in patients with severe aortic stenosis undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions, Ahead of Print. Exposure of interest was PVD. Primary outcome was all-cause mortality.
Objectives:The aim of this study was to assess the risk of stroke for temporary mechanical circulatory support (tMCS) device treated acute myocardialinfarction (AMI).Background:Data Background:Data are limited regarding risk of stroke for temporary mechanical circulatory support (tMCS) device treated acute myocardialinfarction (AMI).Methods:The
It is now well known that even if a coronary artery is opened well after a myocardialinfarction, with good flow in the epicardial coronary arteries, there could be impaired myocardial perfusion. Prognostic Value of Microvascular Resistance Reserve After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients With MyocardialInfarction.
They also wanted an aortic CT which was negative. Timing of revascularization in patients with transient ST segment elevation myocardialinfarction: a randomized clinical trial. Electrocardiographic diagnosis of reperfusion during thrombolytic therapy in acute myocardialinfarction. This is a "Transient OMI".
The Queen of Hearts disagrees, diagnosing OMI with high confidence: Case Continued: The EKG was not immediately recognized by the emergency provider, who ordered a CT scan to rule out aortic dissection at 1419. Diagnosis of Type I vs. Type II MyocardialInfarction in Emergency Department patients with Ischemic Symptoms (abstract 102).
We then summarize current knowledge of the roles played by ERK in the development and progression of cardiac and vascular disorders, including atherosclerosis, myocardialinfarction, cardiac hypertrophy, heart failure, and aortic aneurysm.
Fifteen parameters were selected to assess in‐hospital mortality. The developed model was validated internally and externally using an independent external cohort (n=138). The PRECISE score yielded a high area under the receiver‐operating characteristic curve (0.894 [95% CI, 0.860–0.927]).
This typically occurs after an inferior posterior myocardialinfarction, drug-induced CHB. Management of conduction disturbances associated with transcatheter aortic valve replacement: JACC Scientific Expert Panel. Currently, with the arrrival of TAVR, CHB has beceome a glamorous complication and is getting wider attention.
While intracardiac cardiac tumors and shunts are infrequent and typically asymptomatic, their existence can precipitate severe outcomes, including stroke, myocardialinfarction and sudden death.Case Description:A 69-year-old female presented with left sided facial droop, slurred speech and left arm weakness.
Studies have shown that immune cells, particularly macrophages marked by C-C chemokine receptor type 2 (CCR2), contribute to the progression of heart failure by infiltrating the myocardium and inducing detrimental structural changes following myocardialinfarction or pressure overload.Purpose:This study aims to investigate whether SGLT2 inhibitors (..)
By definition , this is acute myocardialinfarction, the only question now is the etiology. Given radiation of pain into the patient's back, he underwent CTA which showed no evidence of aortic dissection or any other acute pathology. Note that this patient has elevated troponin with dynamic change and chest pain.
Look at the aortic outflow tract. The diagnostic coronary angiogram identified only minimal coronary artery disease, but there was a severely calcified, ‘immobile’ aortic valve. Aortic angiogram did not reveal aortic dissection. In fact, bedside ultrasound might even find severe aortic stenosis. What do you see?
Cardiology noted there was no STEMI criteria and the first troponin was in the normal range (25ng/L, with normal <26), so alternate diagnoses were considered and the patient was sent for CT to rule out aortic dissection. Prospective validation of current quantitative electrocardiographic criteria for ST-elevation myocardialinfarction.
Acute myocardial injury: Is it myocardialinfarction, or perhaps myocarditis? The patient had no hypertension, no tachycardia, a normal hemoglobin, no drug use, no hypotension/shock, no murmur of aortic stenosis. We also looked at his aortic root by both parasternal and suprasternal views, and the aorta was normal.]
This unique case highlights the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges of a patient with multiple vascular risk factors who suffered from strokes secondary to BHS.MethodsA 79‐year‐old man with a past medical history of peripheral artery disease, abdominal aortic aneurysm, myocardialinfarction with drug eluding stents (on dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT)), (..)
Hgb 11g/dL (110g/L) and leukocytosis, and a mildly elevated troponin (36 ng/L, with normal 1mm STE in aVR due to ACS will require coronary artery bypass surgery for revascularization, the infarct artery is often not the LM, but rather the LAD or severe 3-vessel disease. 2 cases of Aortic Stenosis: Diffuse Subendocardial Ischemia on the ECG.
Due to the severity of the pain and the high BP, they obtained an aortic dissection CT. Comparison of the ST-Elevation MyocardialInfarction (STEMI) vs. NSTEMI and Occlusion MI (OMI) vs. NOMI Paradigms of Acute MI. especially since this Chest CT was done to rule out aortic dissection ). 2022.08.750 Section 5.2.2,
As a brief review, HCM is a genetically inherited disorder that produces structural disarray in the myocardial cells. There is ventricular hypertrophy in the absence of abnormal loading conditions, such as aortic stenosis, or hypertension, for example – of which the most common variant is Asymmetric Septal Hypertrophy. 40; 1234-1241.
ng/mL This single initial troponin at this level, in the context of chest pain, is high enough to be diagnostic of acute myocardialinfarction. No signs for aortic dissection or pulmonary embolus. --"Results were discussed with the ordering physician. Her initial cTnI returned at 0.25 A CT Coronary angiogram was ordered.
A 70-year-old female patient with a history of bioprosthetic aortic valve replacement and coronary artery bypass graft presented with bioprosthetic valve failure secondary to prosthetic valve endocarditis. This resulted in early death due to myocardialinfarction and acute heart failure.
The NOTION trial, a pioneering study, sought to compare the long-term clinical and bioprosthesis outcomes of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) versus Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement (SAVR) in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis (AS) at lower surgical risk. Severe SVD was defined by specific criteria.
Background A quarter of patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) were asymptomatic, and only a third of them survived at the end of 4 years. Only a select subset of these patients was recommended for aortic valve replacement (AVR) by the current American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association guidelines.
This study aimed to confirm the prognostic value of a novel angiographic microvascular resistance (AMR) index in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement.Methods and ResultsWe prospectively included 335 patients with severe aortic stenosis who underwent transcatheter aortic valve replacement at Fuwai Hospital.
