Objectives Patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) are increasingly pursuing pregnancy, highlighting the need for data on late cardiovascular events (more than 6 months after delivery). We aimed to determine the incidence of late cardiovascular events in postpartum patients with CHD and evaluate the accuracy of the existing risk scores in predicting these events.

18-year-old male; palpitations lasting hours, beginning at the age of 10. What arrhythmia is present? Let's first consider the heart rate: with a heart rate of 194 beats/min, the heart rate is too low for atrial flutter (1:1) (except in patients who have been pre-treated with medication), and the rate would be unusually high for atrial flutter with 2:1 conduction.

BackgroundAlthough endovascular parent artery occlusion (PAO) of the intracranial artery is a well‐established treatment option, the long‐term stability of cerebral blood flow remains a concern. This study aimed to evaluate the long‐term clinical and radiological outcomes of patients who underwent PAO.MethodsThe patients who underwent endovascular PAO of their internal carotid or vertebral artery (VA) between Ap

The normal range of lactate is 0-2mmol/L and value above it is considered as hyperlactatemia. It may arise due to adequate and non-adequate oxygen supply mechanisms. The major reason is likely stress –induced aerobic mechanism which shows raised results of lactate. Increased lactate levels can cause acidifying effects on the blood. There are many etiological reasons for lactic acidosis like disease condition, deficiency and alcohol.
