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

open access: yesEurasian 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 ...

The utility of B-type natriuretic peptide in predicting postoperative cardiac events and mortality in patients undergoing major emergency non-cardiac surgery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels predict cardiovascular risk in several settings. We hypothesized that they would identify individuals at increased risk of complications and mortality following major emergency non-cardiac surgery.Forty patients ...

A review of heart chamber segmentation for structural and functional analysis using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has become a key imaging modality in clinical cardiology practice due to its unique capabilities for non-invasive imaging of the cardiac chambers and great vessels. A wide range of CMR sequences have been developed

Predictive Value of the Transthoracic Echocardiography Index for Acute Kidney Injury after Cardiac Valve Surgery

open access: yes, 2022
Background: We aimed to demonstrate whether the preoperative transthoracic echocardiography index (TTEI) could improve the predictive value of clinical parameters for cardiac valve surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CVS−AKI).

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Reduced Cardiac Index is Not the Dominant Driver of Renal Dysfunction in Heart Failure

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2016
BACKGROUND It is widely believed that reduced cardiac index (CI) is a significant contributor to renal dysfunction in patients with heart failure (HF). However, recent data have challenged this paradigm. OBJECTIVES We sought to determine the relationship
