Role of Electromechanical Dyssynchrony Assessment During Acute Circulatory Failure and Its Relation to Ventriculo-Arterial Coupling

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
IntroductionTwo parallel paradigms of cardiovascular efficiency and haemodynamic optimisation coexist in haemodynamic research. Targeting ventriculo-arterial (VA) coupling [i.e., the ratio between arterial and ventricular elastance (EV)] and ...

Current evidence in the diagnosis and management of cardiogenic shock complicating acute coronary syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Cardiogenic shock (CS) is a hemodynamically complex and highly morbid syndrome characterized by circulatory collapse and inadequate end-organ perfusion due to impaired cardiac output.

Small Molecule RPI-194 Stabilizes Activated Troponin to Increase the Calcium Sensitivity of Striated Muscle Contraction

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Small molecule cardiac troponin activators could potentially enhance cardiac muscle contraction in the treatment of systolic heart failure. We designed a small molecule, RPI-194, to bind cardiac/slow skeletal muscle troponin (Cardiac muscle and slow ...

Chronic Constrictive Pericarditis in a low-income-setting: Challenges and Outcome of Surgery

open access: yesIbom Medical Journal, 2022
Background: In a low-income setting like ours, chronic constrictive pericarditis is not uncommon. Affected patients present late for surgical management owing to poverty and ignorance. These two factors adversely affect the outcome of surgery. Objective:

Neonates with acute liver failure have higher overall mortality but similar posttransplant outcomes as older infants

open access: yesLiver Transplantation, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Neonatal acute liver failure (ALF) carries a high mortality rate; however, little data exist on its peritransplant hospital course. This project aimed to identify factors associated with outcomes in neonates with ALF using large multicenter databases.

State of Shock: Contemporary Vasopressor and Inotrope Use in Cardiogenic Shock

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Cardiogenic shock is characterized by tissue hypoxia caused by circulatory failure arising from inadequate cardiac output. In addition to treating the pathologic process causing impaired cardiac function, prompt hemodynamic support is essential to reduce

Peri-operative Inotrope Use in Off Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgeries [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2017
Introduction: Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (OPCABG) surgery is now widely accepted and practiced. The literature on inotrope use in OPCABG is sparse. Aim: To look into the intra-operative and immediate postoperative (up to 12 hours after skin

The effects of levosimendan in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement- a retrospective analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Background: Aortic stenosis (AS) increases left ventricular afterload, leading to cardiac damage and heart failure (HF). Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is an effective therapy for AS.

A Comparison of Dobutamine, Norepinephrine, Vasopressin, and Hetastarch for the Treatment of Isoflurane-Induced Hypotension in Healthy, Normovolemic Dogs

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
Isoflurane is a commonly used inhalation anesthetic in species undergoing veterinary care that induces hypotension, impacting organ perfusion, making it imperative to minimize its occurrence or identify effective strategies for treating it.
