Cardiac dysfunction in survivors of sepsis: a scoping review

Open Heart

Studies examining cardiovascular outcomes or symptoms following an episode of sepsis in adults were included. Only 39% (11/28) of articles reported objective measures of cardiovascular function and only one article related cardiovascular function to functional impairment via patient-reported outcome measures.

Comparative Effectiveness of PET and SPECT MPI for Predicting Cardiovascular Events After Kidney Transplant

Circulation: Cardiovascular Imaging

Circulation: Cardiovascular Imaging, Volume 17, Issue 1 , Page e015858, January 1, 2024. BACKGROUND:Advanced chronic kidney disease is associated with high cardiovascular risk, even after kidney transplant. An abnormal MPI result was defined as a total perfusion deficit >5% of the myocardium. years post-transplant.
