A Case Demonstrating the Ribaroxaban Therapy for Paradoxical Embolism
A paradoxical embolism is defined as a systemic arterial embolus due to passage of a venous thrombus through a right to left shunt. In recent years, vitamin K antagonists and aspirin are used as anticoagulant medications for the secondary prevention of ...

Embolic stroke of unknown source (ESUS) in patients with atrial septum defect and patent foramen ovale: difference and similarities [PDF]
Introduction Paradoxical embolism from right-to-left shunt through a patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a well-characterized cause of embolic strokes of undetermined source (ESUS).

Isolated right ventricular infarction: a diagnostic challenge [PDF]
A 73-year-old woman was admitted to the emergency room due to sudden-onset dyspnoea, altered mental status and haemodynamic instability. ECG showed a junctional rhythm, T-wave inversion in I, aVL and V2-V6 (present in a previous ECG), and no ST/T changes

Paradoxical emboli from calf and pelvic veins in cryptogenic stroke. [PDF]
PURPOSE: The increased prevalence of patent foramen ovale in patients with cryptogenic strokes suggests the occurrence of paradoxical embolism. The identification of deep venous thromboses (DVTs) in this population would strengthen this hypothesis.

Transcatheter interatrial shunt device for the treatment of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (REDUCE LAP-HF I [Reduce Elevated Left Atrial Pressure in Patients With Heart Failure]): A phase 2, randomized, sham-controlled trial [PDF]
Background -In non-randomized, open-label studies, a transcatheter interatrial shunt device (IASD, Corvia Medical) was associated with lower pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), less symptoms, and greater quality of life and exercise capacity in ...

The pulsatile ventricular assist platform (pVAP) was connected to a membrane pump in six large swine models. The system, driven by a conventional intra‐aortic balloon pump console (IABP), was utilized to drain left atrial blood during systole and to eject the collected blood back into the ascending aorta during diastole.
