Patients can develop de novo malignancies following orthotopic hearttransplantation. However, vascular tumors are not commonly described in this population.
Patients with significant pulmonary oedema or aortic valve (AV) closure during venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) were randomized to early left ventricular (LV) unloading or conventional strategy groups (1:1). CV, cardiovascular; HT, hearttransplantation; ICU, intensive care unit; LVAD, left ventricular assist device.
UA level was associated to pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) and cardiac index (CI) in univariable (both p<0.001) and multivariable regression analysis (p<0.004 and p=0.025 for PCWP and CI). Median UA was 0.48 (0.39–0.61) mmol/L.
PVI, pulmonary vein isolation. Abstract Aims The CASTLE-HTx trial showed the benefit of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation compared to medical therapy in decreasing mortality, need for left ventricular assist device implantation or hearttransplantation (HTx) in patients with end-stage heart failure (HF).
Background Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a common complication in patients with complete dextro-transposition of the great arteries (TGA) after atrial switch (D-TGA/AS) and congenitally corrected TGA (ccTGA). In follow-up (median 23 months), HFHs/year were similar to the year prior to IHM (median 0 (IQR 0–1.0) before vs 0 (0–0.8)
Introduction: Wellnest brings you , the latest medical news where an infant successfully received a partial hearttransplant! In a remarkable leap forward for pediatric cardiac care, a groundbreaking partial hearttransplant procedure has emerged as a beacon of hope for infants facing severe congenital heart conditions.
Fluid Around the Heart (Pericardial Effusion) Fluid buildup between the heart and the pericardium (heart lining) can make the heart appear enlarged in imaging, even if the heart muscle is not physically bigger. Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator (ICD) to help manage dangerous heart rhythms.
a privately held company dedicated to advancing the treatment of heart failure ( HF ) at the intersection of digital health and medtech, today announced Premarket Approval (PMA) from the U.S milla1cf Mon, 06/24/2024 - 20:21 June 24, 2024 — Endotronix, Inc. ,

The primary effectiveness endpoint was a composite of death, hearttransplant/left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation, HF hospitalization, outpatient HF worsening, and quality of life. This causes pulmonary congestion and makes it hard to breathe during activities or even at rest. HF affects 7 million people in the U.S,
n=42; median RAP, 4 mm Hg; pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, 11 mm Hg), those with a low JV distensibility ratio (≤1.6; CONCLUSIONS:Ultrasound-assessed JV distensibility identifies patients with chronic advanced heart failure with normal RAP and better outcomes.REGISTRATION:URL:[link] Unique identifier: NCT03874312.
CV mortality is the composite endpoint for CV mortality + urgent transplant + left ventricular assist device implantation. The primary endpoint of the study was the composite of cardiovascular death, left ventricular assist device implantation, and urgent hearttransplantation. Events per 1000 person-years. #
CXR confirmed bilateral pulmonary edema and bilateral small effusions. Her labs were remarkable for slight transaminitis without hyperbilirubinemia, elevated BNP (1,226 mg/dL), and elevated troponin (73 ng/L), all of which seemed reasonably attributable to the possible 48 hours of ventricular tachycardia, congestive hepatopathy, etc.
CT angiogram chest: no aortic dissection or pulmonary embolism. Serial chest xrays: progressive bilateral pulmonary edema. The last information available is that the patient was undergoing hearttransplant evaluation. She died before she could get a hearttransplant. No further troponins were measured.
