Pre‐anaesthetic risk assessment and management of dogs with myxomatous mitral valve disease: a spectrum of care narrative review

Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Myxomatous mitral valve disease, an acquired valvular degeneration, is the most common cardiac disorder in dogs, affecting approximately 10% of dogs in primary care veterinary practice. Dogs with myxomatous mitral valve disease frequently require anaesthesia for routine procedures.

Comparative results of repair of Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation (IMR): Conventional against Trans-Septal Approach

International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research, 2017
Objective: Ischemic mitral regurgitation is common and increases mortality, even when mild. (American Heart Association) AHA and European association have both stressed the need of mitral valve repair in patients with moderate or more regurgitation.

Redo mitral valve surgery following prior mitral valve repair.

, 2018
BACKGROUND: The optimal treatment strategy following a failed mitral valve repair remains unclear. This study evaluated early and long-term outcomes of redo mitral valve repair (MVr) and replacement (MVR) after prior mitral valve repair.

BSAVA Petsavers Article: Validation of an ELISA assay for measurement of the metabolite of serotonin, 5‐hydroxyindole acetic acid (5‐HIAA), in canine urine

Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Objectives Serotonin (5‐hydroxytryptophan), implicated in a number of canine diseases, has a very short half‐life in the serum. Urine concentration of its breakdown product 5‐hydroxyindole acetic acid after an 8 hour fast is a more reliable measure of circulating serotonin in humans.

Reduction of hemolysis without reoperation following mitral valve repair

, 2003
Hemolytic anemia following mitral valve repair and annular ring placement is uncommon compared with mitral valve replacement. A 60-year-old man, who had undergone mitral valve repair with a Duran ring, developed hemolytic anemia and needed a blood ...

Left Ventricular wall Thickness and Decrement Evoked Potentials in Ablation of Ischemic Ventricular Tachycardia

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Preprocedural imaging can improve the success rate of ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation. Left ventricular wall thickness (LVWT) measured by cardiac computed tomography (CT) can be used to identify infarct regions. We sought to determine whether an association exists between left ventricular wall thickness (LVWT) as obtained ...

Segmental Snare Traction Technique for Helix‐Fixed Leadless Pacemaker Implantation Across a Repaired Tricuspid Annulus

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Helix‐fixed leadless pacemaker delivery can be challenging after tricuspid annuloplasty with a rigid ring. An 80‐year‐old woman with prior mitral valve repair, tricuspid annuloplasty (26‐mm MC ring), and Maze III surgery presented with syncope due to atrial fibrillation with a slow ventricular response. Standard maneuvers failed to advance the

Late Presentation of Recurrent Monomorphic Ventricular Tachycardia following Minimally Invasive Mitral Valve Repair due to Epicardial Injury

Case Reports in Cardiology, 2014
We report a 73-year-old male with late onset monomorphic ventricular tachycardia following mitral valve repair (MVR). Typically, injury to epicardial arteries following mitral valve repair/replacement presents immediately as ventricular tachycardia ...

Identification of the individual cardiac contraction threshold during high‐frame‐rate stress echocardiography

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The clinical assessment of cardiovascular function during exercise using stress echocardiography is essential for accurate cardiac diagnosis. However, normal limitations of cardiac deformation responses to increasing physical exertion remain poorly understood.
