Quantitative planar and volumetric cardiac measurements using 64 mdct and 3t mri vs. Standard 2d and m-mode echocardiography: does anesthetic protocol matter? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Cross‐sectional imaging of the heart utilizing computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been shown to be superior for the evaluation of cardiac morphology and systolic function in humans compared to echocardiography.

The legacy of voluntarism: Charitable funding in the early NHS

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, Volume 77, Issue 2, Page 554-583, May 2024.
Abstract Before 1948, approximately one‐third of the United Kingdom (UK)’s hospital beds were located in voluntary hospitals, many of which continued to benefit from the funds generated by their historic endowments. When the National Health Service (NHS) was created, the vast majority of these hospitals were taken over by the State. This paper examines

Decision tree model for predicting in‐hospital cardiac arrest among patients admitted with acute coronary syndrome

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, Volume 42, Issue 11, Page 1087-1093, November 2019., 2019
Abstract Background In‐hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) may be preventable, with patients often showing signs of physiological deterioration before an event. Our objective was to develop and validate a simple clinical prediction model to identify the IHCA risk among cardiac arrest (CA) patients hospitalized with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

Determination of left ventricular wall thickness and muscle mass by intravenous digital subtractionangiocardiography: validation of the method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Left ventricular (LV) wall thickness and muscle mass are important measures of LV hypertrophy. In 24 patients LV end-diastolic wall thickness and muscle mass were determined (two observers) by digital subtraction angiocardiography (DSA) and conventional ...

Echocardiographic and pathomorphological features in fetuses with ductal‐dependent congenital heart diseases

open access: yesEchocardiography, Volume 36, Issue 9, Page 1736-1743, September 2019., 2019
Abstract Objective To individually analyze echocardiographic features in fetuses with ductal‐dependent congenital heart diseases (DDCHD) and to verify the anatomical characteristics corresponding to the echocardiogram scan views. Background Ductal‐dependent congenital heart diseases depends on the ductus arteriosus (DA) remaining open to maintain ...

Comparison of intravenous digital subtraction cineangiocardiography with conventional contrast ventriculography for the determination of the left ventricular volume at rest and during exercise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Left ventricular volumes were determined by means of digital subtraction cineangiocardiography (DSA) which was performed in the right anterior oblique projection after contrast agent injection into the superior vena cava.

Pulmonary Venous Index as Additional Diagnostic Criteria for Fontan Palliation

open access: yesJournal of Cardiac Surgery, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Backgroud. The results of the Fontan operation, depending on the anatomy of the pulmonary arteries, have been studied quite well. Various indices have been proposed to assess the degree of hypoplasia of the pulmonary arterial bed (Nakata, Reddy, and McGoon indexes).
