[ 1 ] - Early post operative mortality of Total Correction of Tetralogy of Fallot
Introduction: Since 1954, after the first surgical repair of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), several innovations have occurred in cardiac surgery, especially in children. One stage complete repair of TOF is currently possible even in infancy; however, complications such as hypoxemia, arrhythmia, cardiac dysfunction, sudden death, and valvular disorders may happen. In this study, we evaluated the res...
[ 2 ] - Three Different Imaging Modalities of a Patient with the Aortic Coarctation
The patient was a 19 year-old woman with the diagnosis of resistant hypertension, although she was under treatment of three classes of anti-hypertensive drugs (beta blocker, angiotensin receptor blocker, diuretic) for more than one year. In physical examination there was only a significant difference between the systolic blood pressure of upper and lower extremities (200 vs. 120 mmHg), without ...
[ 3 ] - Coronary Artery Spasm During Dobutamine Stress Echocardiography: A Case Report
Dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) has been widely used as a diagnostic and prognostic modality in the management of stress. DSE is associated with limited complications and adverse effects on the health of patients. In this case report, we described a 42-year-old female patient with dobutamine-induced coronary artery spasm with history of exertional dyspnea, which had deteriorated recent...
[ 4 ] - بررسی ارتباط E/E′ ratio با فشار پایان دیاستولی بطن چپ به روش اندازه‌گیری تهاجمی
مقدمه تعیین فشار انتهای دیاستولی بطن چپ[1] که با روش تهاجمی کاتتریزاسیون اندازه گیری میشود، اقدامی اساسی برای پیش بینی پروگنوز و درمان در بیماران نارسایی قلبی است. هدف این مطالعه تعیین میزان دقت ′E/E اکوکاردیوگرافیک در پیش بینی غیرتهاجمی LVEPD در بیماران با EF متفاوت میباشد. روش کار در این مطالعه در 60 بیمار فشار انتهای دیاستولی بطن چپ(LVEDP) در کاتتریزاسیون قلب اندازه‌گیری شد. همچنین میان...
[ 5 ] - The effects of curcumin on the prevention of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias and heart failure in patients with unstable angina: A randomized clinical trial
Objective: Inflammation along with oxidative stress has an important role in the pathophysiology of unstable angina which leads to acute myocardial infarction, arrhythmias and eventually heart failure. Curcumin has anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant effects and thereby, it may reduce cardiovascular complications. This randomized controlled trial aimed to investigate the effects of curcumin on t...
[ 6 ] - Diastolic left ventricular functional indices: Comparison between gated myocardial perfusion SPECT and echocardiography
Introduction: Many patients have only diastolic dysfunction without any abnormality in systolic function. We compared cardiac diastolic parameters obtained by gated myocardial perfusion SPECT (Gated SPECT) with those evaluated by echocardiography. Methods: Forty-nine patients (aged 37-85 years, 19 males and 30 women) underwent Gated SPECT and echocardiogr...
[ 7 ] - Right sided heart evaluation after successful mitral valve replacement.
Introduction: It is well-documented that right-sided heart dysfunction and significant tricuspid valve regurgitation (TVR) have adverse effects on patient outcomes after left-sided heart valve surgery. Therefore, the evaluation of right ventriclular (RV) function and TR severity in patients who had undergone mitral valve replacement (MVR), associated with/without concomitant su...
[ 8 ] - بررسی تغییر وضعیت پرولاپس دریچه میترال در بیماران دچار نقص دیواره بین دهلیزی بعد از بستن نقص دیواره
مقدمه با توجه به شیوع و اهمیت بالای بیماریهای مادرزادی قلبی و به خصوص نقص دیوارهی بین دهلیزی و تاثیر شگرف این اختلالات بر سلامت و طول عمر بیماران، شناخت بیشتر آنها از ضروریات به شمار میرود. این اختلالات می توانند همراه با سایر مشکلات عملکردی و ساختاری قلب باشند. تا کنون مطالعات محدودی به تاثیرنقص دیوارهی بین دهلیزی بر مشکلات ساختاری دریچه میترال پرداخته اند. ر...
