Cardiogenic shock: do not forget the possibility of Kawasaki disease

open access: yesThe Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2012
We report the case of a six-year-old boy who presented with cardiogenic shock due to Kawasaki disease (KD). He was misdiagnosed at first as septic shock.

Acute and sudden death secondary to cardiac tamponade during anaesthetic recovery in a 21‐year‐old draught mule

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary This case report is of educational value and contributes to the literature because it describes a unique death after anaesthesia due to cardiac tamponade from a rare cardiac neoplasm. In trying to diagnose the origin of chronic sinusitis, a geriatric mule mare was anaesthetised and during recovery, died acutely.

Accuracy of data routinely collected by Australian hospitals for identifying infective endocarditis, causative organisms and clinical outcomes: a diagnostic accuracy study

open access: yesInternal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Infective endocarditis (IE) is a life‐threatening condition, and the surveillance of the incidence is important for monitoring disease trends. Administrative data routinely collected by hospitals offer a feasible and inexpensive method for surveillance of patients with IE, yet the accuracy of coding of IE, causative organisms and ...

Invasive Assessment of Right Ventricular Dysfunction Predicts Periprocedural Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Unplanned Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Displays bar graphs showing outcome rates stratified by clinical and hemodynamic variables. Asterisks (*) denote statistically significant differences (p ≤ 0.05). “NS” indicates non‐significant comparisons. Percentages are shown above each bar. The top panel corresponds to acute kidney injury (blue bars), and the bottom panel corresponds to acute ...

Impacts of Hemodynamic Support on Ventricular Arrhythmia Ablation

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Data on the efficacy of hemodynamic support (HS) for protecting ventricular arrhythmia (VA) ablation in high‐risk heart failure (HF) patients with an impaired left ventricular function and its impact on mortality is limited. Objectives This study aimed to assess procedural efficacy, related complications, VA‐free survival, and ...

Refractory cardiogenic shock in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy complicated by apical ballooning: A case report

open access: yesJournal of International Medical Research
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy can be accompanied by dynamic obstruction in the left ventricular outflow tract and acute apical ballooning, which are among the very rare causes of cardiogenic shock. This condition requires a specific treatment approach that

Perioperative Transfusion Trigger Score Versus Restrictive Transfusion in Older Non‐Cardiac Surgery Patients: A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial

open access: yesJournal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Restrictive transfusion (Hb < 7 g/dL) is recommended for most perioperative patients, but the optimal threshold for those with cardiovascular disease or Hb 7–10 g/dL remains uncertain. The Perioperative Transfusion Trigger Score (POTTS), which integrates adrenaline requirement, FiO2, temperature, and angina history, may standardize ...

Safety and Performance of INVICTA DF4 Ventricular Defibrillation Lead: Results From APOLLO Prospective Multicenter Study

open access: yesPacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator (ICD) therapy relies on reliable right ventricular leads for pacing, sensing, and defibrillation. The INVICTA DF4 lead is an active‐fixation, quadripolar design intended to optimize implant workflow and long‐term safety and performance. Methods APOLLO was a prospective, multicenter, single‐arm,

Biomarkers in cardiogenic shock: old pals, new friends

open access: yesAnnals of Intensive Care
In cardiogenic shock, biomarkers should ideally help make the diagnosis, choose the right therapeutic options and monitor the patient in addition to clinical and echocardiographic indices.
