Comparative Evaluation of Three Transthoracic Echocardiographic Techniques for Cardiac Output and Stroke Volume Assessment Across Hemodynamic States. [PDF]
Comparison of three echocardiographic techniques for cardiac output and stroke volume assessment in critically ill patients. The LVOT/VTI method shows the highest accuracy and reliability compared with PiCCO. ABSTRACT Objective This study compared the accuracy of three transthoracic echocardiographic (TTE) techniques—fractional shortening (FS), left ...

From Thrombolysis to Transplant: Navigating the Storm of Delayed STEMI and Cardiogenic Shock. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Delayed STEMI presentation can cause extensive myocardial necrosis, left ventricular thrombus, cardiogenic shock, and progression to end‐stage heart failure despite reperfusion. Early recognition and timely transfer to specialized shock centers are critical.

Basics of Coronary Thermodilution
Coronary microvascular dysfunction is a highly prevalent condition in both obstructive and nonobstructive coronary artery disease. Intracoronary thermodilution is a promising technique to investigate coronary microvascular (dys)function in vivo and to assess its most important metric: microvascular resistance.

Dynamic and volumetric variables reliably predict fluid responsiveness in a porcine model with pleural effusion [PDF]
Background: The ability of stroke volume variation (SVV), pulse pressure variation (PPV) and global end-diastolic volume (GEDV) for prediction of fluid responsiveness in presence of pleural effusion is unknown.
