Practical Aspects of Nontunneled and Tunneled Hemodialysis Catheters

Canadian Journal of Kidney Health and Disease, 2016
Nontunneled hemodialysis catheters (NTHCs) are typically used when vascular access is required for urgent renal replacement therapy. The preferred site for NTHC insertion in acute kidney injury is the right internal jugular vein followed by the femoral ...

Role for inflammatory markers in predicting right ventricular failure in mechanical assist device recipients

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Right ventricular failure (RVF) is a common complication following left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation and increases patient morbidity and mortality. Due to the complex and limited understanding of RVF pathophysiology, efforts to prognosticate RVF after LVAD have been challenging.

Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy in aortic stenosis patients scheduled for transcatheter aortic valve implantation

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abbreviations: TAVI, transcatheter aortic valve implantation; ATTR‐CM, transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis. We aimed to diagnose occult ATTR‐CM in patients with severe aortic stenosis undergoing TAVI using bone scintigraphy. We verified a diagnosis of ATTR‐CM in 8 of 171 (4.7 %) consecutive aortic stenosis patients who underwent TAVI.

Survival after myocardial infarction according to left ventricular function and heart failure symptoms

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Asymptomatic reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in the acute phase of myocardial infarction (AMI) was associated with up to 20% 1‐year mortality after discharge, substantially higher than in recent post‐MI trials. Symptoms of heart failure (HF) during the index hospitalization was associated with worse outcomes in patients with preserved

Non-cuffed dual lumen catheters in the external jugular veins versus other central veins for hemodialysis patients

Saudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2009
To compare prospective between insertion of non-cuffed dual lumen catheter in the external jugular vein and other central veins for hemodialysis (HD), we studied 68 chronic dialysis patients randomly allocated into two groups: one with external jugular ...

Infecção de corrente sanguínea relacionada a cateter venoso central (ICSRC) em enfermarias: estudo prospectivo comparativo entre veia subclávia e veia jugular interna Catheter-associated bloodstream infections (CA-BSI) in wards: a prospective comparative study between subclavian and jugular access

Jornal Vascular Brasileiro, 2011
CONTEXTO: Hemocultura positiva associada a cateter venoso central tem sido estudada em unidades de terapia intensiva (UTI), mas ainda é controverso se o acesso jugular tem maior incidência de complicações infecciosas que o acesso na veia subclávia ...

Monitoring of the central blood pressure waveform via a conformal ultrasonic device. [PDF]

, 2018
Continuous monitoring of the central-blood-pressure waveform from deeply embedded vessels, such as the carotid artery and jugular vein, has clinical value for the prediction of all-cause cardiovascular mortality. However, existing non-invasive approaches,

Early diuretic response and outcome prediction in ambulatory worsening heart failure: Natriuresis versus diuresis

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Early diuresis and natriuresis are commonly used to assess the efficacy of decongestive therapy following an acute heart failure episode. There is limited knowledge regarding which parameter better predicts adverse clinical outcomes, especially in the outpatient setting.
