Acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock: an algorithm based ECMO program can improve clinical outcomes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Objective: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in our institution resulted in near total mortality prior to the establishment of an algorithm-based program in July 2010. We hypothesized that an algorithm based ECMO program improves the outcome of

Comparison of outcomes for off-pump versus on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting in low-volume and high-volume centers and by low-volume and high-volume surgeons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In terms of in-hospital outcomes, controversy still remains whether off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting is superior to on-pump coronary artery bypass surgery.

Mitral Transcatheter Edge‐to‐Edge Repair in Patients With Advanced Heart Failure: A Single‐Center Experience and Insights Into Anatomical and Clinical Determinants of Procedural Complexity

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Advanced heart failure (HF) remains a clinical challenge, and mitral transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) has emerged as a potential bridging strategy. Aims To describe the clinical outcomes of M‐TEER in a single‐center cohort of patients with advanced HF and to identify anatomical and clinical features potentially associated ...

Concomitant Transcatheter Edge‐to‐Edge Repair for Mitral and Tricuspid Regurgitation for Polyvalvular Disease

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This patient is a 77‐year‐old male with non‐ischemic cardiomyopathy, severe tricuspid regurgitation, and moderate mitral regurgitation who underwent simultaneous transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair of both mitral and tricuspid valves. Post‐procedure, the patient exhibited significant symptomatic improvement and reduced regurgitation severity ...

Outcomes of Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion in Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) were excluded from major trials of left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO). Aim The objective of this study was to describe this population and evaluate outcomes after LAAO in patients with and without HFrEF.

Variability in ACT Response to Standard UFH Bolus During PCI: A Prospective Study on Determinants of Subtherapeutic Anticoagulation

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Unfractionated heparin (UFH) remains the standard anticoagulant during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), with guidelines recommending a target activated clotting time (ACT) of ≥250 s. However, despite receiving a standardized bolus dose, many patients fail to achieve this target.

Anesthesia for off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery

open access: yesAnnals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2013
The evolution of techniques and knowledge of beating heart surgery has led anesthesia toward the development of new procedures and innovations to promote patient safety and ensure high standards of care. Off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) surgery has shown to have some advantages compared to on-pump cardiac surgery, particularly the reduction of ...

Left Main Stem Perforation: Management Strategies in a Potentially Catastrophic Event

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Left main stem coronary perforation is a potentially fatal complication of percutaneous coronary intervention if not recognized early and treated emergently. Treating left main stem perforation can be challenging due to the significant hemodynamic effect of one of the important steps, namely balloon tamponade.
