Hospital‐Level Variations in Outcomes and Readmissions Among Patients With STEMI and Cardiogenic Shock Receiving Mechanical Circulatory Support: Insights From a National Cohort

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The utilization of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) in patients presenting with ST‐elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) complicated by cardiogenic shock (CS) has increased substantially in recent years. However, it remains unclear whether the spectrum of MCS devices available and the type of hospital in which patients are ...

Anterolateral papillary muscle rupture after intervention of the right coronary artery

open access: yesRevista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2015
Rupture of the anterolateral papillary muscle following a right coronary artery occlusion is extremely rare, and when complicated by a right ventricular infarction, can be fatal. The literature on optimal management of this complication is limited.

Coronary Flow in Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy—Immediate Effects of Alcohol Septal Ablation

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is associated with alterations in coronary microvascular function which have variable pathophysiologic mechanisms, and variable reversibility acutely and chronically following alcohol septal ablation (ASA).

Coronary Perforation During Excimer Laser Angioplasty in a Patient With Prior Thoracic Radiotherapy

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Management of heavily calcified coronary lesions remains challenging despite advances in plaque‐modifying technologies. Excimer laser coronary angioplasty (ELCA) is an effective adjunctive strategy with a low risk of no‐reflow. Case Summary A 75‐year‐old woman with non–ST‐segment elevation acute coronary syndrome and severe left ...

Battling Right Ventricular Dysfunction in Post-Infarction Ventricular Septal Defect—A Case Report and Comprehensive Review of Literature

open access: yesLife
Post-infarction ventricular septal defect (VSD) represents a rare but frequently fatal mechanical complication of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), associated with high morbidity and mortality despite advances in reperfusion strategies.

Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement for Residual Tricuspid Regurgitation After TEER

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Residual or recurrent tricuspid regurgitation (TR) after prior transcatheter tricuspid edge‐to‐edge (T‐TEER) repair occurs in about 12% of patients within 1 year. Since surgical tricuspid valve repair or replacement is of high risk, treatment options remain scarce.

Right Ventricular Infarction: A Clinical study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
INTRODUCTION : Myocardial infraction is the term used when the myocardium is necrosed due to ischemia. It may be transmural or subendocardial. Inferior wall infarction has got some special features like association with right ventricular infarction ...

Doppler echocardiographic evaluation of Right Ventricular Function in Patients with Right Ventricular Infarction

open access: yes, 2000
The aim of the present study was to assess the utility of the myocardial performance index in patients with right ventricular infarction. During the study period, 120 patients were evaluated: 50 patients had a right ventricular infarction and 70 patients

Diagnostic Accuracy and Feasibility of Quantitative Flow Ratio at Low Frame Rate Angiography: The Prospective Multicentre Australian AVALON Study

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Quantitative Flow Ratio (QFR) is a well‐established, non‐hyperemic, angiographic, wire‐free predictor of ischemia when compared to Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR). However, its diagnostic accuracy at low frame rates (< 10 frames/second), commonly used in contemporary practice to minimize radiation exposure, has not been evaluated ...

Detection of acute right ventricular infarction by right precordial electrocardiography

open access: yes, 1982
The value of 0.1 mV or greater of S-T segment elevation in at least one right precordial lead (V4R to V6R) in defining right ventricular myocardial infarction was assessed prospectively in 43 subjects (33 consecutive patients with enzymatically confirmed
