Feasibility and safety of high-dose adenosine perfusion cardiovascular magnetic resonance
Introduction Adenosine is the most widely used vasodilator stress agent for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) perfusion studies. With the standard dose of 140 mcg/kg/min some patients fail to demonstrate characteristic haemodynamic changes: a ...

Life events and hemodynamic stress reactivity in the middle-aged and elderly [PDF]
Recent versions of the reactivity hypothesis, which consider it to be the product of stress exposure and exaggerated haemodynamic reactions to stress that confers cardiovascular disease risk, assume that reactivity is independent of the experience of ...

Ageing alters the severity of Sunitinib-induced cardiotoxicity: Investigating the mitogen activated kinase kinase 7 pathway association [PDF]
Anti-cancer drug Sunitinib is linked to adverse cardiovascular events, which have shown to involve mitogen activated kinase kinase 7 (MKK7) pathway. Sunitinib-induced cardiotoxicity in 3, 12 and 24 months old male Sprague-Dawley rats and MKK7 expression ...

Pulmonary vascular responses to exercise: a haemodynamic observation [PDF]
Exercise testing provides additional information over resting variables and is a standard of care in the assessment of coronary artery disease with less subsequent cardiovascular events. In pulmonary hypertension (PH), right ventricular function is clearly an important determinant of survival. However, right ventricular impairment is currently assessed

Functional Optical Topography Analysis Using Statistical Parametric Mapping (SPM) Methodology with and without Physiological Confounds [PDF]
Functional optical topography (OT) measures the changes in oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin (HbO(2), HHb) across multiple brain sites which occur in response to neuronal activation of the cerebral cortex.

Rate-responsive pacing regulated by cardiac haemodynamics
Trans-valvular impedance (TVI) recording has been proposed for the assessment of cardiac haemodynamics, assuming an inverse relationship between TVI and ventricular volume. We checked whether the TVI sensor can drive the rate-responsive function of a cardiac pacemaker following changes in the inotropic regulation of the heart.An external DDD-R ...

Effects of Low Dose Dexmedetomidine Infusion on Intraoperative Haemodynamic Stress Response in Patients Undergoing Oral Oncological Surgeries: A Randomised Control Study [PDF]
Introduction: Maintaining stable haemodynamics throughout oral and maxillofacial surgeries helps to decrease intraoperative bleeding and thus improves the surgical field avoiding unnecessary damage to vital structures and tissues.

Comparing the Effect of Preoxygenation using High-flow Nasal Oxygen and the Tight Facemask Technique during Rapid Sequence Induction in Abdominal Surgeries: A Research Protocol [PDF]
Introduction: Preoxygenation is a critical step during Rapid Sequence Induction (RSI) to prevent hypoxemia during the apnoeic phase, particularly in patients undergoing abdominal surgeries who are at higher risk due to full stomachs, elevated ...
