Cost-effectiveness of an insertable cardiac monitor to detect atrial fibrillation in patients with cryptogenic stroke.

Journal of Comparative Effectiveness Research, 2020
Background: We assessed cost-effectiveness of insertable cardiac monitors (ICMs) in a US cryptogenic stroke population. Materials & methods: We modelled lifetime costs and quality-adjusted life years for three monitoring strategies post cryptogenic ...

Anti‐desmoglein‐2 autoantibodies do not discriminate between UK boxer dogs with and without arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Evidence regarding the diagnostic utility of serum anti‐desmoglein‐2 (DSG2) autoantibodies for arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) in boxer dogs is conflicting. Methods Prospective standardised evaluation of apparently healthy boxer dogs for ARVC was performed at three referral centres, including blood pressure ...

From Galvani’s Frog and Norman Jefferis Holter (1914-1983) to the “Implantable Holter Monitors” of Today

Cardiologia Hungarica
Luigi Galvani (1737–1798) studied the contractions of the leg muscle of a decapitated frog, becoming the founder of electrophysiology. His work even inspired artists such as Paul Peel (1860–1892), who painted his famous painting “The Young Biologist” in ...

Using the net benefit regression framework to construct cost-effectiveness acceptability curves: an example using data from a trial of external loop recorders versus Holter monitoring for ambulatory monitoring of "community acquired" syncope

BMC Health Services Research, 2006
Background Cost-effectiveness acceptability curves (CEACs) describe the probability that a new treatment or intervention is cost-effective. The net benefit regression framework (NBRF) allows cost-effectiveness analysis to be done in a simple regression ...

Preoperative Atrial Fibrillation Does Not Impact Long‐Term Survival and Complications in Left Ventricular Assistance Device Recipients

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
In this large multicenter study, AF before LVAD implantation was not associated with increased risks of mortality, bleeding, stroke, or pump thrombosis, but was linked to a higher incidence of late VAs. ABSTRACT Introduction A substantial proportion of patients receiving left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) present with pre‐existing atrial ...

A Classification System to Detect Congestive Heart Failure Using Second-Order Difference Plot of RR Intervals

Cardiology Research and Practice, 2009
A classification system to detect congestive heart failure (CHF) patients from normal (N) patients is described. The classification procedure uses the k-nearest neighbor algorithm and uses features from the second-order difference plot (SODP) obtained ...

Comparison of pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of ultra‐rapid‐acting insulin aspart and rapid‐acting insulin aspart around continuous moderate intensity exercise in adults with type 1 diabetes: A randomised controlled trial

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims To compare the effects of dose reductions of ultra‐rapid‐acting insulin aspart (URA‐IAsp) and rapid‐acting insulin aspart (IAsp) on blood glucose concentrations during continuous moderate‐intensity exercise in people with type 1 diabetes (T1D).

Rainfall shapes the physiological condition, but not the body size, of an introduced dung beetle in Brazilian pastures

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Understanding rainfall‐driven physiological shifts in dung beetles is crucial to predict how climate change may affect the fitness and persistence of key insect species in tropical pastures. We compared body size, dry, lipid and muscle masses of Digitonthophagus gazella collected during dry and rainy seasons in Brazilian pastures to assess the effects ...

Cost Analysis and Clinical Outcomes of Ambulatory Care Monitoring in Medicare Patients: Describing the Diagnostic Odyssey

Journal of Health Economics and Outcomes Research, 2015
# Objectives The diagnostic sequence and costs for arrhythmia detection utilizing Holter ambulatory ECG monitoring have not been well studied. The objective of the current study was to characterize the number of patients and associated costs incurred in ...
