Echocardiographic Imaging to Guide Tricuspid Interventions
Transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions may offer patients less invasive treatment alternatives to surgery. This review evaluates the use of echocardiography to determine anatomic suitability and guide the 2 most common classes of device currently ...

ABSTRACT Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) is frequently complicated by pulmonary hypertension (PH) and right ventricular (RV) dysfunction. However, the prognostic significance of invasive hemodynamic parameters obtained at index right heart catheterization (RHC) in adults with RHD and echocardiographic RV–pulmonary artery (PA) uncoupling remains ...

Physiological and clinical consequences of relief of right ventricular outflow tract obstruction late after repair of congenital heart defects. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Right ventricular outflow tract obstruction (RVOTO) is a common problem after repair of congenital heart disease. Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) can treat this condition without consequent pulmonary regurgitation or ...

ABSTRACT Background Postoperative pulmonary decline is an established complication of open‐heart surgery extending beyond the immediate postoperative phase. Inflammation‐mediated lung damage and ischaemia‐reperfusion injury secondary to extracorporeal circulation is a proposed pathophysiological driver. GLP‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1RA) have emerged as

The first case of Reel Syndrome in a dog after pacemaker implantation: A case report
Reel Syndrome is a rare complication of permanent pacemaker implantation, characterised by the rotation of the device around its transverse axis, which causes the lead to coil around the generator and displacement, leading to pacing dysfunction. This report presents the first documented case of Reel Syndrome in a dog.

Inferior Vena Cava Ultrasound for Decongestion Assessment in Acute Heart Failure: Systematic Review
This systematic review of 629 patients suggests that using IVC ultrasound to guide decongestion in acute heart failure significantly improves clinical outcomes. This approach leads to reduced NT‐proBNP levels, hospitalizations, mortality, and adverse events, highlighting its effectiveness as a potential tool for optimizing AHF treatment and monitoring .
