We demonstrated that the predictive properties in the administration of amiodarone 10 min before the declamping of the aorta can significantly lower the rates of arrhythmia after CABG, while also decreasing hospitalization duration. Abstract Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most frequent arrhythmia after cardiac surgery causing a range of ...

Percutaneous balloon mitral valvotomy and coronary stenting in the same sitting
Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) is still highly prevalent in developing countries like India, while the incidence of coronary artery disease (CAD) is on the rise. So the occurrence of a combination of RHD with CAD becomes more likely. We describe a patient

Subvalvular apparatus and adverse outcome of balloon valvotomy in rheumatic mitral stenosis
Background: Balloon mitral valvotomy (BMV) is a well-established therapeutic modality for rheumatic mitral stenosis (RMS). However, there are chances of procedural failure and the more ominous post-procedural severe mitral regurgitation. There are only a
