Impact of Sacubitril/Valsartan on Clinical and Echocardiographic Parameters in Heart Failure Patients With Reduced Ejection Fraction: Data From a Real Life 2-year Follow-Up Study

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
Heart failure (HF) represents a widespread health problem characterized by high morbidity and mortality. Sacubitril/Valsartan (sac/val) has improved clinical prognosis in patients affected by HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).

Comparison of continuous cardiac output monitoring derived from regional impedance cardiography with continuous thermodilution technique in cardiac surgical patients

Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2020
Background: Cardiac output (CO) assessment is a corner stone in advanced haemodynamic management, especially in critical ill patients. The present study was conducted to validate cardiac index and cardiac output by NICaS™ with the thermodilution ...

The Cardiac Caval Index: Improving Noninvasive Assessment of Cardiac Preload

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, 2021
ObjectivesInferior vena cava (IVC) pulsatility quantified by the Caval Index (CI) is characterized by poor reliability, also due to the irregular magnitude of spontaneous respiratory activity generating the major pulsatile component. The aim of this study was to test whether the IVC cardiac oscillatory component could provide a more stable index ...

Thoracic Fluid Content Measurement: Diagnostic Value of Suspected Pulmonary Oedema in Acute Decompensate Heart Failure

Eurasian Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2020
Aim:One of the non-invasive methods of monitoring changes in cardiovascular haemodynamics is the measurement of transthoracic impedance (TTI). The most important features of this method are that it does not require catheterisation, it carries no risk of ...

Baseline Values of Left Ventricular Systolic Function in Preterm Infants With Septic Shock: A Prospective Observational Study

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2022
Background and AimGuidelines recommended that cardiac index (CI) of term infants with septic shock should reach the target level of 3.3–6.0L/(min⋅m2). However, there are still no standard values for preterm infants with septic shock.

Deep Learning Based Cardiac MRI Segmentation: Do We Need Experts? [PDF]

Algorithms 2021, 14(7), 212, 2021
Deep learning methods are the de-facto solutions to a multitude of medical image analysis tasks. Cardiac MRI segmentation is one such application which, like many others, requires a large number of annotated data so a trained network can generalize well.

Fetal Cardiac Function: Myocardial Performance Index [PDF]

Current Cardiology Reviews, 2022
Abstract: The Myocardial Performance Index (MPI) or Tei index, presented by Tei in 1995, is the ratio of the sum of the duration of the isovolumetric contraction time (ICT) and isovolumetric relaxation time (IRT) to the duration of the ejection time (ET).
