Risk stratification in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

Herz, 2018
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is the most devastating complication of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The greatest challenge in the management of HCM is identifying those at increased risk, since an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) is a potentially life-saving therapy.

Cardiac Risk Stratification

2019
Perioperative cardiovascular complications pose serious risk, especially to patients with pre-existing cardiac disease. The degree of risk varies widely depending on the patient’s medical comorbidities and type of surgery. A careful medical evaluation before surgery can help inform a discussion of risk for patients and providers and suggest management ...

Preoperative Renal Risk Stratification

Circulation, 1997
Background After cardiac surgery, acute renal failure (ARF) requiring dialysis develops in 1% to 5% of patients and is strongly associated with perioperative morbidity and mortality. Prior studies have attempted to identify predictors of ARF but have had insufficient power to perform multivariable analyses or to develop risk ...

Operative Risk Stratification

2013
The preoperative evaluation of the geriatric clearly presents unique challenges. Historically, risk stratification has focused on a single organ system. In the geriatric patient the combined effects of frailty, comorbidity, and disability contribute cumulatively to poor outcomes.

Risk Stratification in Electrical Cardiomyopathies

Herz, 2009
Electrical cardiomyopathies contain the long QT syndrome (LQTS), the short QT syndrome (SQTS), the Brugada syndrome, and the catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). Patients diagnosed with an electrical cardiomyopathy have an increased risk of syncope and sudden cardiac death (SCD).

Risk Stratification and Prognosis

2018
In order to adequately manage the rapidly expanding population of patients with adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) and to optimize patient outcomes, accurate prognostication is of paramount importance. A large part of the risk stratification of patients with ACHD is based on the underlying anatomical defect, concomitant lesions, and type of ...

Risk Stratification in Hemangiomas of Infancy

Lymphatic Research and Biology, 2003
Hemangiomas of infancy are very common tumors, but they are heterogeneous in their behavior. A small, but significant, subset causes medical complications or permanent disfigurement, but due to their heterogeneity, there is no appropriate "one size fits all" approach to management.

Risk Stratification in PMF

2011
Primary myelofibrosis (PMF) is a Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) whose diagnostic criteria have been recently updated (Tefferi et al. 2007). Among MPNs, PMF has the most heterogeneous clinical presentation, which may encompass anemia, splenomegaly, leukocytosis or leukopenia, thrombocytosis or thrombocytopenia, and ...

Clinical Perspective on Risk Stratification

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 1997
Surveys show that subjective risk assessment or risk stratification is often widely inaccurate. Objective data from large observational studies or from clinical trials identifies a persons absolute risk of an event in a given time in order to assess the risk/benefit ratio of a given treatment. In general, the higher the risk the better the risk/benefit
