With regard to ischaemic aetiology, HFmrEF more resembles HFrEF, but HFmrEF has a higher frequency of underlying coronary artery disease (CAD) and a better overall prognosis. Comorbidities While there are differences between the cellular and structural comorbidities of HFpEF and HFrEF, there are some similarities. ...
These include: Atrial fibrillation (Afib) Coronary artery disease Diabetes High blood pressure (hypertension) Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) Obesity Chronic kidney disease Amyloidosis or other infiltrative heart diseases What are the symptoms of diastolic heart failure? ...
A cyclo-ergometer exercise test was performed on this 57-year old male patient. He is a smoker with a family background of CAD. He is suffering from left bundle branch block making ST-segment analysis impossible. The patient has achieved 78 % of max. heart rate at 120 watts. Moderate paleness and dyspnoea have been observed at the end of the 120 watts step. However, after a normal initial ...
Pathophysiology, treatment options and hot topics Improvements In Stemi Treatment The immediate and long-term prognosis of patients experiencing an ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has changed dramatically since the introduction of coronary reperfusion therapies during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI). The evolution of these therapies accelerated with the ...
Periodontal infection has been associated with other systemic disorders that would not on the surface appear related. Periodontal disease is a potential risk factor for: Infective Endocarditis (damaged heart valves) Cardiovascular Diseases (Arteriosclerosis, Coronary thrombosis Ischemic heart disease, Stroke) Diabetes ...
ABILITY Diabetes Global (Randomized Comparison of Abluminus DES+ Sirolimus-Eluting Stents versus Everolimus-Eluting Stents in Coronary Artery Disease Patients with Diabetes Mellitus Global) started off with the index patient enrolment on 11th June 2020 in Italy (at the peak of the 1st wave of COVID-19 pandemic) by P.I. ...
Heart Attack A heart attack occurs when blood flow to the heart is blocked, typically because of a blood clot or plaque that built up in the arteries over time. Your heart muscle needs oxygen in order to function properly, so when blood flow is blocked, the heart muscle begins to die because of lack of oxygen. ...
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) cause 17 million deaths globally every year, making it the leading cause of death around the world. ...
This case study discusses hospital readmissions and provides healthcare professionals with recommended medical algorithms in the form of scores, models, and calculators that can aid in reducing readmissions, especially when related to antibiotic resistant microbiological pathogens. When health analytics, such as the CDC antibiotic resistance program and other algorithms are integrated into ...
The primary aim of the Burden of Atherosclerotic Plaques Study in Twins-Genetic Loci and the Burden of Atherosclerotic Lesions (BUDAPEST-GLOBAL) study is to evaluate the influence of genetic and environmental factors on the burden of coronary artery disease. By design this is a prospective, single-center, classical twin study. ...
