IntroductionVentricular septal defect (VSD) is a common congenital heart disease (CHD), accounting for 2030% of all CHD cases. While surgical closure has been the gold standard for treatment, transcatheter closure has emerged as a less invasive alternative, particularly for perimembranous VSDs. Data were analyzed using SPSS 20.0.ResultsThe
We hypothesize that applying artificial intelligence (AI) to chest x-rays (CXRs) could identify the future risk of PAH in patients with ventricular septal defect (VSD). Methods A total of 831 VSD patients (161 PAH-VSD, 670 nonPAH-VSD) was retrospectively included.

However, a team led by D.
Introduction:Ventricular septal defect (VSD) is the most common pediatric defect which benefits from closure at an early age. and excluded patients with VSD diameter >10mm and those with other congenital cardiac anomalies.Results:We included 40 patients with a mean age of 18.95 ± 13.02 The mean VSD size was 6.01 ± 2.29
Preoperative conditions, general surgical conditions, perioperative and postoperative outcomes, and long-term follow-up results were compared between the 2 groups.ResultsThe study included 783 cases. The infants were divided into the RSSI group and the median sternotomy (MS) group.
To discuss the existing data on outcomes of medical therapy, surgery and percutaneous intervention. Learning objectives To review the epidemiology, clinical presentation and diagnosis of mechanical complications of acute myocardial infarction including ventricular septal defect, free wall rupture and papillary muscle rupture.
To bridge this, the Center has traditionally opted to use bi-leaflet mechanical valves, committing patients to lifelong anticoagulation but better long-term outcomes , limiting reoperation and related costs. Building on the expertise and foundation set forth by Dr.
Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) : A hole in the wall (septum) between the heart’s two lower chambers (ventricles). The fear of the unknown, of potential surgeries, and of long-term outcomes can be paralyzing. The Role of Education : Education is key to empowering families and improving outcomes for children with CHDs.
Free wall rupture, VSD, Dresslers Syndrome, chronic CHF, anatomic LV aneurysm, LV thrombus, stroke, etc). It is unclear what, if any impact opioid administration had on the outcome of this case. No further echocardiograms were available after cath. Teaching points: 1.
BackgroundLimited study has shown whether NT-proBNP is related to the prognosis of children wth ventricular septal defect (VSD) surgery. The short- and mid-term clinical outcomes were recorded. Post-op 24-h NT pro-BNP level wasn't associated with clinical outcomes.
The primary outcome was OMI defined as an angiographic culprit lesion with either TIMI 02 flow; or TIMI 3 flow with either peak high sensitivity troponin- I >5000ng/L or new wall motion abnormality. Of these, 48 met the primary outcome criteria of OMI. The primary analysis was per-patient proportion of false positives.
