Value of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Noninvasive Risk Stratification in Tetralogy of Fallot.
Importance Adults late after total correction of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) are at risk for major complications. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is recommended to quantify right ventricular (RV) and left ventricular (LV) function. However, a commonly used risk model by Khairy et al requires invasive investigations and lacks CMR imaging to identify high-risk patients. Objective ...
متن کاملRisk stratification for postoperative cardiovascular events via noninvasive assessment of endothelial function: a prospective study.
BACKGROUND Brachial artery endothelial function is impaired in individuals with atherosclerosis and coronary risk factors and improves with risk reduction therapy. However, the predictive value of brachial artery endothelial dysfunction for future cardiovascular events is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS We preoperatively examined brachial artery vasodilation using ultrasound in 187 patients unde...
متن کاملPreoperative noninvasive coronary risk stratification in candidates for carotid endarterectomy.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis who are candidates for carotid endarterectomy are at high short- and long-term risk of coronary events. To stratify patients at different risk of coronary events we investigated the usefulness of a noninvasive preoperative cardiological workup. METHODS We studied 172 consecutive patients admitted to the Neurosurgical Department...
متن کاملCardiac imaging for risk stratification in diabetes.
World wide, 200 million individuals currently have diabetes, and projections by the World Health Organisation suggest that its prevalence will exceed 300 million by 2025 and 360 million by 2030. More than 90% of these individuals will have type 2 diabetes. Management guidelines in Europe and the USA consider type 2 diabetes to be a cardiovascular disease equivalent. These patients have a 2–4-fo...
متن کاملAmbulatory blood pressure for cardiovascular risk stratification.
Ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) monitoring is increasingly recognized as a valuable tool to refine prediction of cardiovascular risk related to blood pressure (BP).1 After the first landmark study published by Perloff and colleagues 24 years ago,2 several longitudinal event-based studies provided unequivocal evidence of an independent association between ABP and risk of cardiovascular disease. ...
