    AbstractBackground. For patients with non–ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS), prasugrel was recommended over ticagrelor in a recent randomized controlled trial, although more data are needed on the rationale. Here, the effects of P2Y12 inhibitors on ischemic and bleeding events in patients with NSTE-ACS were investigated.Methods. Clinical trials that enrolled patients with…

    AbstractBackground. This study assessed in-hospital outcomes of patients with chronic systolic, diastolic, or mixed heart failure (HF) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) or surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR).Methods. The Nationwide Inpatient Sample database was used to identify patients with aortic stenosis and chronic HF who underwent TAVR or SAVR between 2012 and…

    Abstract. At a time when transplantable organs are in a shortage, few cases have noted the reuse of donor hearts in a second recipient in an effort to expand the donor network. Here, we present a case in which an O Rh-positive donor heart was first transplanted into a B Rh-positive recipient and later successfully retransplanted into a second O Rh-positive recipient 10 days after the initial…

    Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital heart defect, occurring in 1% to 2% of the general population.1 Compared with individuals having normal tricuspid aortic valves, those with BAVs are more likely to develop calcification on valve leaflets and raphe and dilation of the ascending aorta (aortopathy)—and at a much earlier age. For highly select patients with severe BAV…

    The prevalence of cardiogenic shock (CS) is high and involves approximately 1 in every 6 patients admitted to the cardiac intensive care unit. Despite the introduction of acute mechanical circulatory support (AMCS) and the institution of “shock teams,” in-hospital mortality for patients with CS remains between 30% and 40%.1 A striking paradox in the management of this critically ill population is…

    Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an established therapy for medically refractory heart failure (HF), with a reduction in hospitalization and mortality in addition to improved cardiac function and functional capacity shown in landmark clinical trials.1,2 Cardiac resynchronization therapy is also indicated for patients with systolic dysfunction requiring frequent ventricular pacing (>40%)…

    The POCUS Imperative - 10 month(s) ago

    Ultrasound has been a fixture of bedside evaluation in obstetrics, cardiology, and emergency medicine for several decades, and in critical care for at least a decade, with growing applications for multiple other specialties. POCUS entails real-time focused assessment at the bedside of patients with suspected pathology. It differs from consultative imaging in that the examination is…
