TELEMONITORING IN PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC HEART FAILURE: EXPERIENCE FROM THE TELECUORE PROJECT IN PIACENZA
Anno:
2024
BACKGROUND Starting from February 2023, the Piacenza’s Hospital has approved the use of a cardiological telemonitoring system called ‘TeleCuore’ project. This system, through the monitoring of various vital parameters which are frequently sent by patients via a dedicated platform, allows for remote assessment of the clinical status of 250…
Left bundle branch pacing and improvement of aortic stenosis: a successful and unusual clinical case
Anno:
2024
Introduction: The dyssynchronous electrical activation of the ventricles may worsen underlying aortic stenosis. Left bundle branch pacing (LBBP) via a transventricular septal approach could be an alternative physiological pacing modality for patients with atrioventricular block (AVB), allowing the preservation of left ventricle synchronization and a decrease in left ventricular…
Dengue Myocarditis in a Deceased Patient with Postmortem Positive Dengue Serology
Anno:
2024
Dengue, a viral illness, is spread through the bite of an infected female arthropod and is mostly found in tropical and subtropical areas. The disease can present in various forms: from silent, asymptomatic cases to the more recognizable dengue fever. In its severe manifestations, it can progress to hemorrhagic…
Long-term outcomes following transvenous lead extraction: data from a tertiary referral center
Anno:
2024
Transvenous lead extraction (TLE) has been established as a procedure with a satisfactory safety and efficacy profile in both intraoperative and short-term postoperative setting. However, data on long-term outcomes are limited. The purpose of this study was to evaluate long-term outcomes and prognostic factors in patients who underwent TLE….
A Clash of Cholesterol Titans: Statin-Intolerant vs. Statin-Tolerant Patients on PCSK9 Inhibitors in long term follow-up
Anno:
2024
Introduction: Statin intolerance remains a clinical challenge in the management of dyslipidemia. This study aimed to investigate whether patients with statin intolerance, receiving PCSK9 inhibitors, exhibit lipid profile improvement different from those obtained in those without statin intolerance. Methods: In this monocentric outpatient study we enrolled 381 dyslipidemic patients…
ROLE OF THE MOLECULAR TESTS FOR PATIENTS WITH INFECTIVE ENDOCARDITIS UNDERGOING CARDIAC SURGERY: AN EXPANDING HORIZON
Anno:
2024
Background Molecular tests have been proven to be a highly sensible tool to identify the pathogen of infective endocarditis (IE). However, their usefulness in the management of both blood culture positive and valve culture negative IE remains unclear. Methods We prospectively enrolled 100 consecutive patients with IE who underwent…
Attenuazione perivascolare aortica all’angio tomografia computerizzata del torace e diagnosi di Sindrome di Marfan
Anno:
2024
INTRODUCTION: Marfan syndrome (MFS, OMIM #154700) is an autosomal dominant inherited disorder with a prevalence in the general population of about 3/10,000. It mainly affects connective tissue due to mutations in the FBN1 gene (15q21.1) that codes for fibrillin-1. The prognosis of patients with MFS is dominated by the…
GENDER DIFFERENCES IN PREDICTORS OF PRIMARY VENTRICULAR FIBRILLATION: RESULTS OF THE PREDESTINATION STUDY
Anno:
2024
Introduction: Few studies evaluated risk factors for ventricular fibrillation (VF) before reperfusion during a first acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Important parameters such as blood potassium levels (K+), blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) at presentation were not always considered. Furthermore, the potential for gender differences has never been…
VALIDATION OF QUANTITATIVE FLOW RATIO DERIVED VIRTUAL ANGIOPLASTY WITH POST-ANGIOPLASTY FRACTIONAL FLOW RESERVE. THE QIMERA-I STUDY
Anno:
2024
Backgroud. Quantitative flow ratio (QFR) virtual angioplasty with pre-PCI residual QFR showed better results compared with angiographic approach to assess post-PCI functional results. However correlation with pre-PCI residual QFR and post-PCI fractional flow reserve (FFR) is lacking. Methods. Multicenter prospective study including consecutive patientswith angiographically 50-90% coronary lesions and…
The “Back to the Future” of Cardiothoracic Surgery: High-risk interventional procedure turned down to conventional cardiac surgery
Anno:
2024
Background Structural interventional cardiology has been introduced at the beginning of our century to address high-risk patient suffering from severe aortic stenosis. Since then several technique and technology have been proposed to address an increasing population of patients and mitral valve diseases have been also addressed. While several authors…
