The sociodemographic characteristics of patients undergoing intervention for aortic stenosis (AS) in England, and the impact of COVID-19, is unknown. Rates of SAVR declined during COVID-19 for all groups, but TAVI rates increased steadily. Results Of 179 645 procedures, there were 139 990 SAVR (mean age 71±10.8
Background Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is one of the most lethal complications of COVID-19 hospitalization. In this study, we looked for the occurrence of AMI and its effects on hospital outcomes among COVID-19 patients. All COVID-19 hospitalizations with age ≥ 18 years were included in the analyses.
We aimed to quantify the impact of health system disruptions during the COVID-19 pandemic, on their clinical outcomes and whether these differed by socioeconomic and ethnic subgroups. Outcomes did not vary by pandemic birth era according to social characteristics.
Background It is unclear how COVID-19 pandemic affected care and outcomes among patients who are diagnosed with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in the USA. Patients with COVID-19 versus those without had significantly greater in-hospital mortality (45.2% reduction in admissions in 2020. In 2020, 3.0%
Objective To assess the feasibility, efficacy and safety of performing exercise stress echocardiography (ESE) for the assessment of myocardial ischaemia during the COVID-19 pandemic. Retrospective analysis was performed on follow-up data for outcomes. SE service performance increased to 96.8%
Objective To identify the most common transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) parameters in patients hospitalised with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19) and their association with myocardial injury and outcomes. Moreover, COVID-19-induced myocarditis remains extremely rare.
BackgroundPatients with ischemic stroke and concomitant COVID‐19 infection have worse outcomes than those without this infection, but the impact of COVID‐19 on hemorrhagic stroke remains unclear. We aimed to assess if COVID‐19 worsens outcomes in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).Methods
BACKGROUND:The association of COVID-19 with higher bleeding risk and worse outcomes in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) undergoing revascularization may be related to the presence of infection symptoms. We compared COVID-negative controls, AS-COVID, and S-COVID using multivariable regression. versus 85.6%;P<0.001),
Background:Hemorrhagic cerebrovascular manifestations are known to be associated with COVID-19. Comparative outcome analyses between pre-COVID (2016-2019) and COVID year (2020) were performed. Comparative outcome analyses between pre-COVID (2016-2019) and COVID year (2020) were performed.
Whether the COVID-19 pandemic impacted stroke etiology is still being investigated, but most studies have been performed outside the United States. Adults (18) with AIS were compared based on admission date: Pre-COVID period (1/1/2019 12/31/2019) vs. COVID period (3/1/2020 3/1/2021).
Background:Different from the negative impact of COVID-19 pandemic on outcomes after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) collapsed before emergency medical service (EMS) arrival, there was a report suggested that COVID-19 pandemic did not affect outcomes after OHCA witnessed by EMS personnel.
Importance Although cardiac injury is a known complication of COVID-19 infection, there is no established tool to predict cardiac involvement and in-hospital mortality in this patient population. Main outcomes and measures In-hospital mortality. to 15.03, p=0.101).
Background The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted cardiovascular disease management in primary care in England. OpenSAFELY can be used to continuously monitor changes in national quality-of-care schemes to identify changes in key clinical subgroups early and support prioritisation of recovery from care disrupted by COVID-19.
Background:Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) increases the risk of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST), and previous reports derived from small case series reported a high mortality in these patients, up to 40%. but there were fewer women in the COVID-CVST group (50% vs 68%,P<0.01).
Abstract Aims The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted healthcare systems and possibly impacted the management of heart failure (HF). This study examined the impact of the pandemic on HF hospitalization activities, outcomes, and costs in Victoria, Australia. Further studies using other data (i.e.
We still don’t know what COVID-19 is doing to the heart or how we should be investigating it and treating it. Last month JAMA Cardiology published a German cohort study of 100 patients recently recovered from COVID-19… A number of striking problems with the study were noted on Twitter….

Abstract New-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) in COVID-19 raises significant clinical and public health issues. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to compile and analyze the current literature on NOAF in COVID-19 and give a more comprehensive understanding of the prevalence and outcomes of NOAF in COVID-19.
Background The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the uptake of digital health interventions for the delivery of cardiac rehabilitation (CR). Methods We examined the impact of an evidence-based, digital CR programme on medical, lifestyle and psychosocial outcomes. However, there is a need to evaluate these interventions.
Background:Severe COVID-19 infection has been associated with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and right ventricular (RV) dysfunction. A retrospective chart review was performed on 41 patients with COVID-19 on ECMO between March and October 2020.
This review highlights disparities among patients of color in terms of atopic dermatitis prevalence, management, and outcomes in the post-COVID-19 world.
The ability to track and report data from these broader aspirational targets will potentially require expansion of existing data sets, development of new data sets, and enhanced integration of technology to collect process and outcome data, as well as partnerships of the AHA with national, state, and local organizations.
The primary outcome of the trial was mean change in systolic BP from baseline to end of treatment. A total of 205 participants were enrolled and mean BP fell from 142/87 (systolic BP/diastolic BP) to 131/81 mm Hg (a reduction of 11 (95% CI, 10–12)/7 (95% CI, 6–7) mm Hg,P<0.001).

Background:Preceding respiratory tract infections (RTIs) caused by bacteria or viruses are associated with worse stroke outcomes, likely due to an exaggerated inflammatory immune response, endothelial dysfunction, platelet activation, and coagulopathy. aureus(on days 0, 2, and 5) or mouse-adapted SARS-CoV-2 (on day 0). vs. infectedVwf+/+).
Background:Nationwide data demonstrating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on hemorrhagic stroke outcomes are lacking.Methods:We used the National Inpatient Sample (2016-2020) to identify adults (>=18 years) with primary intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) or subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). 2.51; SAH: 2.76, 1.68-4.54),
Enhanced recovery after cardiac surgery (ERACS) protocols have been shown to improve outcomes for electiv. Surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) is an established therapy for severe calcific aortic stenosis.
The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the potential of video consults (VCs), even among older patients, to support self-care, improve disease management, and facilitate collaboration with caregivers. Digital consults (DCs) offer a promising solution to enhance GDMT optimization for the growing HF population.
Introduction COVID-19 may lead to long-term endothelial consequences including hypertension, stroke and myocardial infarction. A pilot study ‘COVID-19 blood pressure endothelium interaction study’, which found that patients with normal blood pressure (BP) at the time of hospital admission with COVID-19 showed an 8.6
These solutions often feature advanced analytics capabilities, empowering clinicians with valuable insights for personalized patient care and outcome improvement. AI algorithms can analyze vast amounts of cardiovascular data to identify patterns, predict outcomes and assist clinicians in making informed decisions.
The primary outcome was the feasibility of recruiting and randomising 50 patients across two cardiac surgical centres, and secondary outcomes included the feasibility of collecting the planned perioperative data, clinically relevant outcomes and assessments of effective patient identification, screening and recruitment.
