Hemodynamic Studies Before and After Instrumental Mitral
surgery and to enhance our understanding of the pathophysiology of mitral stenosis. Although surgery produced a significant increase in calculated mitral valve area, the degree of improvement varied markedly. The younger patients had the greater increase in mitral valve area. The change in cardiac index and pulmonary vascular resistance correlated well with the change in mitral valve area. Only...
متن کاملHemodynamic Differences in Intracranial Aneurysms before and after Rupture.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Rupture risk of intracranial aneurysms may depend on hemodynamic characteristics. This has been assessed by comparing hemodynamic data of ruptured and unruptured aneurysms. However, aneurysm geometry may change before, during, or just after rupture; this difference causes potential changes in hemodynamics. We assessed changes in hemodynamics in a series of intracranial an...
متن کاملFunctional capacity before and after cardioversion of atrial fibrillation: a controlled study.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of cardioversion on peak oxygen consumption (peak VO2) in patients with long-standing atrial fibrillation, to assess the importance of underlying heart disease with respect to the response to exercise, and to relate functional capacity to long-term arrhythmia outcome. DESIGN Prospective controlled clinical trial. SETTING Tertiary referral centre. PATIENTS ...
متن کاملMyocardial perfusion scintigraphy before and after cardioversion for atrial fibrillation: Recovery of quantitative parameters
Case presentation. A 54-year-old woman with a history of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) was referred to our department for myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) due to suspicion of coronary artery disease. The history revealed several cardioversions and two ablation-procedures for the treatment of AF. Adenosine stress test was used because the b-blockade medication was not stopped before...
متن کاملAgenesis of the left lung and total anomalous pulmonary venous connection. Hemodynamic studies before and after complete surgical correction.
A female infant with unilateral pulmonary agenesis developed congestive heart failure dominated by symptoms of obstructive disease of the airways at 3 1/2 months of age. Cardiac catheterization revealed total anomalous pulmonary venous connection to the right atrium. Despite a massive left-to-right shunt with one pulmonary artery receiving the entire right ventricular output since birth, the pa...
