Abstract:
Objectives A substantial number of patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and congestive heart failure (CHF) are medically managed without undergoing corrective surgery. We sought to assess the characteristics and outcomes of CHF patients who underwent tricuspid valve surgery (TVS), compared with those who did not. Methods Retrospective observational study involving 2556 consecutive patients with severe TR from the Cleveland Clinic Echocardiographic Database. Cardiac transplant patients or those without CHF were excluded. Survival difference between patients who were medically manag

Abstract:
The theophylline clearance was evaluated in patients with liver dysfunction and/or congestive heart failure. One hundred and twenty two patients were categorized into four groups; Group I: Liver dysfunction (n=20), Group II: Congestive heart failure (CHF, n=22), Group III: Both liver dysfunction and CHF (n=12), and Group IV: Control group (n=68). The severity of liver dysfunction and CHF were evaluated using Child-Turcotte- Pugh index (CTP) and a Cardiac Function index, respectively. Theophylline clearance was significantly decreased in Groups I, II, and III when compared to the control group;

Abstract:
A descriptive design was used in this study to describe the feeding behaviors (as defined by changes in body position) in infants with congestive heart failure secondary to congenital heart disease. In addition, short term physiologic changes associated with the behaviors were measured through the use of pulse oximetry and cardiorespiratory monitors. Nine infants were observed in this study as they were being fed by their nurses. The method chosen was naturalistic observation. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the demographic data and the measured physiologic variables. A point by se

Abstract:
Congestive heart failure (CHF) is the most commonly treated condition in veterinary cardiology as it is the sequela of a multitude of cardiovascular diseases. This thesis reviews current practices in veterinary CHF therapeutics and explores novel approaches to therapy through examining three aspects of this topic: the differences in pimobendan pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics between dogs and cats; the role of multi-modal therapy in dogs with CHF; and the role of the brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) system in dogs with CHF. Pimobendan metabolism and treatment effects were reduced in cats c

Abstract:
Cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of death throughout the developed world. With the demand for donor hearts far exceeding the supply, a bridge-to-transplant or permanent solution is required. This can be achieved with rotary ventricular assist devices (VADs). Rotary VADs show a weaker response to preload than the native heart. This may lead to ventricular suction or pulmonary congestion, which can be deleterious to the patient’s recovery. A physiological control system which optimizes responsiveness of VADs may reduce adverse events. Active physiological control systems rely either o

INTRODUÇÃO: Em pacientes com infarto do miocárdio (IM) e disfunção cardíaca, a evidência de viabilidade miocárdica é primordial, e o exame tomográfico por emissão de pósitrons com 18F-fluoro-desoxi-glicose (18FDG-PET) é o padrão-ouro para essa identificação. Existe preferência, na literatura, pela realização do clamp hiperínsulínico euglicêmico (CLAMP) antes da injeção de 18FDG para estimular todo o miocárdio a consumir glicose (GLI), garantindo assim a sua captação pelas áreas de miocárdio hibernado (MH).

Recently, serial monitor of these biomarkers was considered better than one-time-point analysis for predicting prognosis. Therefore, we want to evaluate the prognostic value of serial change of cTnI concentration in the dogs with heart failure secondary to canine myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) in this study.

Abstract:
The myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) is the most common cardiac condition in dogs, being the leading cause of congestive heart failure that precede the cardiac related death or euthanasia. It is a disease mostly frequent in small to median breed dogs (under 20kg), with a symptomatic phase most common in older patients. The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is the most predisposed breed, with almost all the individuals presenting the disease and clinical signs in early ages when comparing to other breeds. This condition is a polygenic disease, and the mechanisms that lead to the mitral valve
