Aim The first expert consensus documents on management of patients with spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) were published in 2018. We aim to review the proportion of patients with SCAD receiving consensus recommendations globally, regionally and, determine differences in practice before and after 2018. female) were included.
Introduction Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is a non-traumatic and non-iatrogenic separation of the coronary arterial wall. Results 14 studies with 2,145 females in the generative period with ACS caused by SCAD were analyzed. P-SCAD compared to NP-SCAD patients more frequently had STEMI (OR = 3.16; 95% CI: 2.30–4.34;
BackgroundClinical practice guidelines for the management and convalescence of patients with spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) have yet to be developed. The targeted content, delivery, and outcomes of interventions that benefit this population remain unclear. women; mean age, 53.2 years)
Here is the post shock ECG: Cardiology was called stat for ischemic VT, query SCAD vs thrombotic occlusion vs coronary vasospasm. Cath lab was activated: There was no coronary artery disease, but there was spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) of the distal LAD, which was narrowed by 95%, and treated medically.
Short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (SCAD) negatively regulates pathological cardiac hypertrophy. The purpose of this study was to investigate the possible role of SCAD in cardiac fibrosis. Short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (SCAD) negatively regulates pathological cardiac hypertrophy.
In the absence of these factors it is termed spontaneous coronary artery dissection ( SCAD ). At that time the literature suggested: SCAD was rare , Mostly related to pregnancy , Seen on angiography as a dissection flap , and Managed similarly to MI caused by CAD (ASA, BB, lytics/PCI ). The SCAD cases in Lobo et al. Lobo et al.
Her long term outcome (with very large LAD MI and EF of 30%) is unknown. Currently, SCAD is a diagnosis that can only be established emergently in the cath lab with angiography. Otherwise it results in a terrible outcome, as in this case, with devastating permanent loss of myocardium). Is this Left Bundle Branch Block?
What is Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection (SCAD)? I asked Angie Lobo ( [link] ), a third year intermal medicine resident at Abbott Northwestern Hospital (and Minneapolis Heart Institute) and an aspiring cardiologist, to write a couple paragraphs on SCAD. There are no randomized controlled trials for treatment strategies in SCAD.
Background Contemporary management of spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is still controversial. This systematic review of the literature aims to explore outcomes in the patients treated with conservative management vs. invasive strategy. SCAD-PCI revascularization was associated with a variable range of PCI failure.
Background Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) and Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) constitute two common causes of nonatherosclerotic acute cardiac syndrome particularly frequent in women. Currently, there is no information comparing long-term clinical outcomes in unselected patients with these conditions. In-hospital events (43.3%
Soviet biologist Trofim Lysenko famously rejected the objective reality of Mendelian genetics because it clashed with the Marxist philosophy that the environment, not genetics, was the primary determinant of outcomes. But what should matter is outcomes not diagnoses. Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work.
Additional entities including spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD), coronary microvascular disease (CMD), systemic autoimmune disorders, and mental and behavioral health will also be discussed in terms of their prevalence among women and their association with CVD.
