In honor of World Heart Day on September 29, we're diving into the world of cardiovascular diagnostics. Echocardiography, one of the most widely used screening and diagnostic modalities in healthcare, has seen a resurgence thanks to advances and groundbreaking innovations within the last few years. Join us as we explore the top trends shaping these diagnostic methods. 1. ...
Ultromics will be sharing its groundbreaking AI research and innovation at the American Society of Echocardiography’s annual Scientific Sessions. ASE’s Foundations and the Future of Cardiovascular Ultrasound sessions bring together echo professionals and enthusiasts from across forty-five countries with a selection of networking ...
AI’s progress in reducing the crisis of indeterminates Due to the heterogeneity of HFpEF, diagnosis remains a challenge, and optimal selection for clinical trials and potential targeted therapy remains difficult for clinicians to obtain. ...
This type of infection triggers an acute phase of inflammation that can lead to scar tissue and reduced contractile function in the chronic phase that all lead to HFrEF. [4] For HFpEF patients, it’s the low-grade chronic systemic inflammation that plays a key role in microvascular changes. ...
Symptoms and signs of HF are either too nonspecific or too infrequent, which makes the clinical diagnosis of HF challenging with [14] Imaging Echocardiography remains the main evaluation for HFpEF and provides essential information to estimate elevated LV filling pressure. ...
Recent clinical trials investigating sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have highlighted that this drug is highly effective in treating patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). HFpEF is a complex disease which accounts for more than half of all heart failure (HF) hospital admissions and is an increasing disease burden. [1] The prevalence of HFpEF is ...
The combination of congenital heart disease (CHD) and respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) can present a difficult scenario to manage with conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV). Our patient presented with poor right ventricular (RV) function, and refractory respiratory failure on CMV. High-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) was used in order to improve ventilation at a similar or lower mean ...
Background Several pioneering studies have provided evidence for the introduction of universal pulse oximetry screening for critical congenital heart disease. I lowever, whether the benefits of screening reported in studies from high-income countries would translate with similar success to low-income countries is unknown. We assessed the feasibility and reliability of pulse oximetry plus clinical ...
In-vivo Evaluation Of A Novel Surgical Heart Valve Prosthesis Designed To Be Durable, Anticoagulant-free And Silent. Bart Meuris, Lucas Van Hoof, Wilm Decré, Marie Lamberigts, Tom Langenaeken, Peter Verbrugghe. KU Leuven, Leuven, Belgium. OBJECTIVE: Heart valves prostheses still face limitations: reoperations with tissue valves or lifelong anticoagulation with mechanical valves. The ...
