Mashup Score: 0Left Ventricular Hypertrophy-Low Longitudinal Strain Phenotype in Elderly Patients with Preserved or Mid-range Ejection Fraction - 3 year(s) ago
The left ventricular hypertrophy-low longitudinal strain phenotype in elderly patients with preserved or mid-range ejection fraction has been proposed to identify patients at a high risk of clinical events.1 In addition, this phenotype may carry a high prevalence of cardiac amyloidosis, specifically transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis.2 A structured screening tool in the echocardiographic…

Mashup Score: 0Which Cardiac Structure Lies Nearby? Revisiting Two-Dimensional Cross-Sectional Anatomy - PubMed - 3 year(s) ago
Two-dimensional (2D) transthoracic echocardiography is one of the most used diagnostic tools in clinical cardiology. Similarly, 2D transesophageal echocardiography is considered an indispensable tool for cardiologists and cardiac anesthesiologists worldwide. However, because of their tomographic nat …

For fellows learning 3D, it is important to understand the anatomic relationships in the elevational plane. For example, you can bring in the tricuspid valve from the bicaval view by increasing the elevational width https://t.co/spCvYscogv https://t.co/UfY1p7dEia

Mashup Score: 4Successful Percutaneous Edge-to-Edge Mitral Valve Repair in a Patient With Mediastinal Shift - 4 year(s) ago
Mediastinal shift often induces deformation of the esophagus and the cardiac chamber. We describe the case of percutaneous mitral edge-to-edge valve repair in a patient with mediastinal shift. Esophagography enabled the advancement of the transesophageal echocardiography probe without esophageal damage, and transesophageal echocardiography successfully guided the percutaneous mitral edge-to-edge…

Mashup Score: 1Impact of Mitral Regurgitation Severity and Left Ventricular Remodeling on Outcome After Mitraclip Implantation - 4 year(s) ago
Objectives This study aimed to identify a subset of patients based on echocardiographic parameters who might have benefited from transcatheter correction using the Mitraclip system in the MITRA-FR (Percutaneous Repair with the MitraClip Device for Severe Functional/Secondary Mitral Regurgitation) trial. Background It has been suggested that differences in the degree of mitral regurgitation (MR)…

In post hoc analysis of MITRA-FR, none of subgroups defined based on EROA, LV size or both derived benefit from intervention. This is inconsistent with 'proportionality' hypothesis. Debate continues! https://t.co/A6dQdzHZBt https://t.co/kmKlzZzxtA

Mashup Score: 2Impact of Arterial Blood Pressure on Ultrasound Hemodynamic Assessment of Aortic Valve Stenosis Severity - 4 year(s) ago
Aortic stenosis (AS) severity assessment is based on several indices. Aortic valve area (AVA) is subject to inaccuracies inherent to the measurement method, while velocities and gradients depend on hemodynamic status. There is controversy as to whether blood pressure directly affects common indices of AS severity.
