Intravascular Lithotripsy Is Associated With Superior Clinical Outcomes Compared to Atherectomy: A Large‐Scale, Propensity‐Matched Analysis

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) with severe calcification remains a growing challenge in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Atherectomy (ATH) has long been used for plaque modification, whereas intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) has emerged as a promising alternative. Large‐scale comparative data on long‐term outcomes are limited.

Non-valvular atrial fibrillation and stroke : implications for management [PDF]

, 1995
Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation is more prevalent with increasing age. It is associated with a six-fold excess risk of stroke; and a cumulative lifetime stroke risk of 35%. 15% of ischaemic strokes are directly attributable to it.

The Prognostic Impact of Multiple Adverse Events on Long‐Term Mortality Following Acute Myocardial Infarction

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Adverse events after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are individually associated with poor outcomes, but the prognostic impact of the overlap of different event types occurring sequentially within the same patient remains uncertain.

Extended anticoagulation after venous thromboembolism: should it be done?

Therapeutic Advances in Respiratory Disease, 2019
Most physicians understand venous thromboembolism (VTE) to be an acute and time-limited disease. However, pathophysiological and epidemiological data suggest that in most patients VTE recurrence risk is not resolved after the first 6 months of ...

Sex-related differences in risk factors, type of treatment received and outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation and acute stroke: Results from the RAF-study (Early Recurrence and Cerebral Bleeding in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke and Atrial Fibrillation) [PDF]

, 2016
Introduction: Atrial fibrillation is an independent risk factor of thromboembolism. Women with atrial fibrillation are at a higher overall risk for stroke compared to men with atrial fibrillation. The aim of this study was to evaluate for sex differences

Comprehensive Nursing Management of Anticoagulation and Heart Failure Surveillance in a Chinese Patient With Mirror‐Image Dextrocardia Post‐MitraClip Surgery: A First Case Report

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the valent type of valvular heart disease, caused by primary leaflet lesions or annular dilatation secondary to left ventricular dysfunction. It can lead to a series of complications such as volume overload, exacerbated pulmonary congestion, and heart failure, significantly impacting patient prognosis ...

Quality of anticoagulation control among patients with atrial fibrillation: An experience of a tertiary care center in Saudi Arabia

Journal of the Saudi Heart Association, 2016
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common chronic rhythm disorder. Patients with AF are at an increased risk of ischemic stroke. Therefore, optimal anticoagulation is essential to reduce the risk of stroke.

Testing for inherited thrombophilia does not reduce the recurrence of venous thrombosis\ud [PDF]

, 2008
Background: Inherited thrombophilia is only weakly associated with recurrence in patients with a first venous thrombosis (VT). In spite of this, thrombophilia testing is often performed in these patients. Positive results may influence patient management
