Mashup Score: 2Management of Cardiogenic Shock: Present and Future - 11 month(s) ago
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…

Mashup Score: 0Conduction System Pacing for Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy: The 31-Million-Dollar Question - 11 month(s) ago
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%)…

Mashup Score: 0Can Significant Coronary Artery Disease Coexist With Transient Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy, and How Does Spasm Interrelate? - 11 month(s) ago
Abstract. An 86-year-old woman being treated for metastatic breast cancer developed severe chest pain at rest during a follow-up visit at a hospital’s outpatient oncology clinic. An electrocardiogram showed severe ST-segment elevation. The patient was given sublingual nitroglycerin and was transferred to the emergency department. Diagnostic coronary angiography revealed moderate coronary artery…

Mashup Score: 0The Evolution of Durable, Implantable Axial-Flow Rotary Blood Pumps - 11 month(s) ago
Abstract. Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are increasingly used to treat patients with end-stage heart failure. Implantable LVADs were initially developed in the 1960s and 1970s. Because of technological constraints, early LVADs had limited durability (eg, membrane or valve failure) and poor biocompatibility (eg, driveline infections and high rates of hemolysis caused by high shear…

Mashup Score: 0A Novel Approach to Diagnostic Left and Right Heart Catheterization in a Patient With a Mechanical Prosthetic Tricuspid Valve - 11 month(s) ago
Abstract. A 47-year-old patient was experiencing dyspnea and fatigue concerning for right ventricular hypertension and new heart failure. Because of the risks associated with catheter entrapment, prosthetic valve leaflet damage, and valve thrombosis associated with crossing a mechanical valve, a novel technique was used for diagnostic left and right heart catheterization in a patient with…

Mashup Score: 0Increased Plasma Non–High-Density Lipoprotein Levels and Poor Coronary Collateral Circulation in Patients With Stable Coronary Artery Disease - 11 month(s) ago
AbstractBackground. This study investigated the relationship between coronary collateral circulation (CCC) and non–high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non–HDL-C) in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD). Coronary collateral circulation plays a critical role in supporting blood flow, particularly in the ischemic myocardium. Previous studies show that non–HDL-C plays a more important…

Mashup Score: 0Can Breaking Heroin Addiction Lead to a Broken Heart? A Case of Reverse Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy in a Patient With Heroin Withdrawal - 11 month(s) ago
Abstract. Reverse takotsubo cardiomyopathy is triggered by emotional or physical stress and has a presentation similar to that of acute coronary syndrome. A 39-year-old woman with a history of heroin use disorder presented with intractable nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. She was diagnosed with heroin withdrawal and started on buprenorphine-naloxone. On day 2 of her hospitalization, she developed…

Abstract. A 21-year-old man with sensorineural hearing loss and glaucoma presented with severely limited exercise capacity since childhood. He was found to have biventricular concentric hypertrophy with greatest wall thickening at the posterior and lateral walls of the left ventricle apex (1.7 cm) and the free wall of the right ventricle (1.1 cm). There was no inducible left ventricular outflow…
