Full textAbstract:
Mechanical complications after an acute infarction include different forms of heart rupture, including free wall rupture, interventricular septal rupture, and papillary muscle rupture. Its incidence decreased dramatically with the widespread use of reperfusion therapies but may occur in 2–3% of ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients, and mortality is very high if not properly diagnosed, as surgery is the only effective treatment. Echocardiography is the most important tool for diagnosis that should be suspected in patients with hypotension, heart failure, or recurrent chest pain. Awareness and well-established protocols are crucial for an early diagnosis. Modern imaging techniques permit a more reliable and direct identification of left ventricular free wall rupture, which is almost impossible to identify with conventional echocardiography. Mitral regurgitation, secondary to papillary muscle ischaemia or necrosis or left ventricular dilatation and remodelling, without papillary muscle rupture, is frequent after myocardial infarction and is considered as an independent risk factor for outcomes. Revascularization to control ischaemia and surgical repair should be considered in all patients with severe or symptomatic mitral regurgitation in the absence of severe left ventricular dysfunction. Other mechanical complications include true aneurysms and thrombus formation in the left ventricle. Again, these complications have decreased with the use of early reperfusion therapies and, for thrombus formation, with aggressive antithrombotic treatment. In a single large randomized trial (STICH), surgical remodelling of the left ventricle failed to demonstrate a significant improvement in outcomes, although it still may be an option in selected patients.

Mechanical complications after an acute infarction involve different forms of heart rupture, including free wall rupture, interventricular septal rupture, and papillary muscle rupture.

Full textAbstract:
Echocardiography has established appropriate areas in the evaluation of patients with known or suspected ischaemic heart disease. This chapter highlights the main risk stratifications for assessment of acute myocardial infarction. It illustrates the main complications of acute myocardial infarction (e.g. wall rupture, ventricular aneurysm, ventricular pseudoaneurysm, thrombus, pericardial effusion, mitral regurgitation) with details of incidence, timing, echocardiographic findings and implications. This chapter also details poor prognosis risk factors found in echocardiographic examination of patients with chronic ischaemic heart disease.

Full textAbstract:
Infective endocarditis is the fourth leading cause of life-threatening infections, accounting for 40,000 annual U.S. hospital admissions. Due to decline in rheumatic heart disease, a shift in causative organisms from viridans streptococci to S. aureus, Group D Streptococcus, and multidrug-resistant species has been observed. The spectrum of neurological complications ranges widely from cerebrovascular pathologies-including septic embolization, mycotic aneurysms, and intracerebral hemorrhages-to seizures, meningitis, cerebritis, and abscess. Transthoracic echocardiogram remains the standard for initial investigation whereas CT scans, MRI with DWI sequence, and cerebral angiograms are useful for exploring neurological complications. Antibiotic regimens, tailored to culprit organisms, should be initiated early after obtaining blood cultures and continued for 4 to 6 weeks. Antithrombotic treatment may pose increased risk for intracerebral hemorrhage, even in the absence of mycotic aneurysms (MA). Unruptured MA must be treated according to risk of rupture and overall health of the patient. MAs either at risk or previously ruptured should be secured by neurosurgical or endovascular means. Early cardiac surgery is a viable option for prevention of septic embolization for high-risk cardiac diseases such as perivalvular abscess and infection with resistant organisms, but may increase mortality rates for those with decompensated heart failure.

Full textAbstract:
Post-traumatic cardiac complications may occur after penetrating or blunt injuries to the heart or may follow severe extracardiac injuries. The majority of victims with penetrating injuries to the heart die at the scene and do not reach hospital care. For those patients who reach hospital care, an immediate operation, sometimes in the emergency room, cardiac injury repair, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation provide the only possibility of survival. Many patients develop perioperative cardiac complications such as acute cardiac failure, cardiac arrhythmias, coronary air embolism, and myocardial infarction. Some survivors develop post-operative functional abnormalities or anatomical defects, which may not manifest during the early post-operative period. It is essential that all survivors undergo detailed early and late cardiac evaluations. Blunt cardiac trauma encompasses a wide spectrum of injuries that includes asymptomatic myocardial contusion, arrhythmias, or cardiogenic shock to full-thickness cardiac rupture and death. Clinical examination, electrocardiograms, troponin measurements, and echocardiography are the cornerstone of diagnosis and monitoring of these patients. Lastly, some serious extracardiac traumatic conditions, such as traumatic pneumonectomy and severe traumatic brain injury, may result in cardiac complications. This may include tachyarrhythmias, cardiogenic shock, electrocardiographic changes, troponin elevations, heart failure, and cardiac arrest.

Wright, Julian. Marcel Sembat and the Daily Life of Socialism. Oxford University Press, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780199533589.003.0007.
Full textAbstract:
The concepts of ‘experience’ and ‘enthusiasm’ were set out by Marcel Sembat as ways of focusing intensely on the present and the nature of socialist party activity. Sembat had been close to the ‘Blanquist’ wing of the French socialist movement, with its emphasis on revolutionary rupture. But his wide reading and interest in psychology, sociology, and physiology led him to seek a present-minded focus for his socialist militancy, through his work in the eighteenth arrondissement and his long reflections in his private diary. His passionate enthusiasm for the life of the socialist party was also a visceral, daily experience of engagement, and the divides that shook the party in the First World War and with the split at the Congress of Tours in 1920 gravely affected him. This chapter assesses the present in the thought of an intellectual who was at the heart of Jaurès’ socialist party.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter includes ten influential papers in the development of ideas about the causes and management of stroke. These are papers that have changed medical thinking or practice, or both simultaneously, and they cover the following topics: the carotid artery; angiography; carotid endarterectomy; embolism from the heart and atrial fibrillation; ruptured intracranial aneurysms recognized during life; intracranial venous thrombosis; thrombolysis in acute ischaemic stroke; and transient ischaemic attacks. The problematic issue of how to measure the severity of disease is addressed; and the history and development of specialist stroke units is also covered.

Full textAbstract:
Aluminum Alloy Castings: Properties, Processes and Applications is a practical guide to the process, structure, property relationships associated with aluminum alloy castings and casting processes. It covers a wide range of casting methods, including variations of sand casting, permanent mold casting, and pressure die casting, showing how key process variables affect the microstructure, properties, and performance of cast aluminum parts. Other chapters provide similar information on the effects of alloying and heat treating and the influence and control of porosity and inclusions. A significant portion of the book contains curated collections of property and performance data, including many previously unpublished aging response curves, growth curves, and fatigue curves; tensile properties at high and low temperatures and at room temperature after high-temperature exposure; the results of creep rupture tests conducted at temperatures from 212 to 600 °F (100 to 315 °C); and stress-strain curves obtained from casting alloys in various tempers under tensile or compressive loads. The book also discusses the factors that contribute to corrosion and fracture resistance and includes test specimen drawings as well as a glossary of terms.
