Adjunctive application of handgrip exercise associated with dobutamine stress echocardiography

, 2011
Stress echocardiography is today the best possible imaging choice in the field of noninvasive diagnosis of coronary artery disease. Dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) and Dobutamine-atropine stress echocardiography (DASE) have been studied ...

Mechanisms and Management of Acquired Aseptic Intracardiac Communications After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: Single‐Center Case Series Insights

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Acquired aseptic intracardiac communications (AICCs) are rare but clinically relevant structural complications following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), typically resulting from mechanical injury to the aortic annulus, interventricular septum, or adjacent structures.

Comprehensive exploration of unexplained dyspnoea in subjects with normal ejection fraction and low natriuretic peptides

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 879-887, April 2025.
Abstract Background Unexplained exertional dyspnoea without significant elevation of natriuretic peptides is common. One of the causes might be early heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Aims This study aimed to characterize patients with exertional dyspnoea and normal/near‐to‐normal N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT ...

Clinical Stress Echocardiography [PDF]

, 2007
Two-dimensional echocardiography is a commonly used non-invasive method for the assessment of left ventricular function. It provides precise information on both global and segmental myocardial function by displaying endocardial motion and wall thickening.

Real-time three-dimensional ultrasound : a valuable new tool in preoperative assessment of complex congenital cardiac disease [PDF]

, 2003
Evaluating complex cardiac defects in small children preoperatively requires multiple diagnostic procedures including echocardiography, and also invasive methods such as cardiac catheterisation, computer-tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.

Growth differentiation factor‐15 and N‐terminal pro‐BNP in acute heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 888-899, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) continues to be an increasingly common health problem associated with a high mortality rate. Elevated levels of Growth differentiation factor‐15 (GDF15) and N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) are reportedly associated with poor clinical outcomes in a broad range of ...
