A Rare Case of Nitroglycerin Resistant Coronary Arterial Vasospasm During Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Coronary artery vasospasm following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a rare but potentially life‐threatening complication that can lead to myocardial ischemia, arrhythmias, and cardiogenic shock. Nitroglycerin‐resistant vasospasm, particularly involving the left main coronary artery (LMCA), poses significant diagnostic and ...

Cardiac Troponin I as Compared to Troponin T for the Detection of Myocardial Damage in Horses

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2015
Background Different cardiac troponin I (cTnI) assays give different results. Only 1 manufacturer has marketed troponin T (cTnT) assays. Therefore, cTnT often is preferred for detection of myocardial infarction in human patients.

Increased Thrombogenicity is Associated With Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction in Patients With STEMI—A Proof‐of‐Concept Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Up to 50% of patients with ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) develop coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD). Aims This study aims to assess whether a prothrombotic state of coronary blood, defined by thromboelastography (TEG), is associated with post ...

The First‐in‐Man Technique of Drug Eluting and Perfusion Therapy for Left Main Coronary Artery Disease

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Treating ostial left circumflex artery (LCx) lesions in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for left main disease (LMD) remains a challenge. Despite recent recommendations for the use of drug‐coated balloon (DCB) in this lesion, there are concerns about crossover‐stenting from the left main trunk (LMT) to the left anterior ...

The incidence of myocardial injury following post-operative Goal Directed Therapy

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2007
Background Studies suggest that Goal Directed Therapy (GDT) results in improved outcome following major surgery. However, there is concern that pre-emptive use of inotropic therapy may lead to an increased incidence of myocardial ischaemia and infarction.

Weekly and 90-minute biological variations in cardiac troponin T and cardiac troponin I in hemodialysis patients and healthy controls.

Clinical Chemistry, 2014
BACKGROUND Myocardial infarction (MI) is diagnosed by the finding of a single cardiac troponin value above the 99th percentile and a significant time-dependent change in cardiac troponin concentration.

Prophylactic IABP Use in Protected PCI Reduces Infarction Size and Leads to More Complete Revascularization in Comparison to Rescue IAPB Use

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background There is little data questioning the timing of intra‐aortic balloon pump (IABP) implantation in non‐cardiogenic shock patients undergoing high‐risk percutaneous procedures. Aims We compared prophylactic IABP (P‐IABP) implantation to an emergent, unplanned rescue use (R‐IABP) in high‐risk PCI. Methods Among 300 IAPB patients who were

Relationship between serum cardiac troponin T and I with Left ventricular hypertrophy and systolic dysfunction in hemodialysis patients

مجله دانشگاه علوم پزشکی گرگان, 2014
Background and Objective: Cardiovascular diseases are the most frequent cause of death among hemodialysis patients. Left ventricular hypertrophy and systolic dysfunction are potent predictors of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in hemodialysis ...
