Clinical Significance of ST Elevation in Lead aVR in Acute Pulmonary Embolism.
(2017)
Prognostic stratification of patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PTE) is crucial in identifying patients who would benefit from more aggressive treatment. We aimed to examine the value of ST elevation in lead aVR (STEaVR ...
Hypophosphatemic encephalopathy in a CAPD patient.
(2008)
Severe refeeding hypophosphatemia has been reported in infants and adults on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis. We report an episode of transient encephalopathy and cardiac suppression in a diabetic, malnourished ...
Off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery in severe left ventricular dysfunction
(2010)
Our aim was to examine hospital outcomes of coronary artery bypass surgery in patients with and without left ventricular dysfunction, with regard to the surgical technique (off- or on-pump). Between March 2007 and March ...
Clinical and laboratory predictors of coronary slow flow in coronary angiography.
(2017)
The coronary slow-flow phenomenon (CSFP) is a multifactorial angiographic finding with no established pathogenesis.To investigate the role of clinical profile and laboratory findings in patients with CSFP.We prospectively ...
Isolated cardiac hydatidosis--a case report.
(2010)
Cardiac hydatidosis is rarely encountered. A case of isolated cardiac hydatid cyst of the left ventricle in a young woman is described. The diagnosis was suggested by echocardiography and was confirmed later by pathological ...
Intraoperative administration of vasopressin during coronary artery bypass surgery is associated with acute postoperative kidney injury
(2015)
Background: Severe vasodilatation is commonly seen upon weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). We examined the effects of vasopressin (arginine vasopressin [AVP]) on acute kidney injury (AKI) in postoperative period. ...
Biatrial pacing vs. intravenous amiodarone in prevention of atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass surgery.
(2009)
This study was aimed to compare the results of post operative biatrial pacing and i.v. amiodarone in prevention of AF. In a single blind randomized clinical trial, 210 patients scheduled for elective CABG surgery were ...
Electrocardiography changes in acute aortic dissection—association with troponin leak, coronary anatomy, and prognosis
(2016)
Background Electrocardiography (ECG) offers some information that may be used to prognosticate acute type A aortic dissection (AAOD) for short- and long-term mortality. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the electrocardiograms ...
