Aims Patients with a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) following an acute myocardial infarction (MI) are at risk of progressive adverse cardiac remodelling that can lead to the development of heart failure and death. The early addition of

ABSTRACT Background Optimal projection views during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) procedures are critical for procedural success and patient outcomes. Aims This study investigated the influence of 3‐cusp view orientation—line of alignment (LOA) versus non‐LOA—on procedural outcomes in patients undergoing TAVI with contemporary ...

ABSTRACT Background Mortality in patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) remains high despite advanced treatment strategies in CS patients, underlining the need for the identification of predictors of prognosis in CS patients. Therefore, the present study investigates the prognostic impact of coronary chronic total occlusions (CTO) in patients with CS ...

ABSTRACT Background Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) is a hereditary myocardial disease. Percutaneous endocardial septal radiofrequency ablation (PESA) is an innovative approach for treating HOCM. Consequently, we present the outcomes of the PESA for HOCM. Methods This study included 20 patients with HOCM who received PESA.

Background: The head-down position used in laparoscopic surgery considerably influences cardiac function. However, few studies have examined systolic and diastolic functions, such as the ejection fraction (EF), mitral annular plane systolic excursion ...

ABSTRACT Anticipating the evolution of septic patients with community‐acquired pneumonia (CAP) is challenging for front‐line physicians in the Emergency Department (ED). Prognosis depends mainly on early identification, antibiotics, organ support, but also immune status.
