Filter by:After an acute coronary syndrome, an adapted cardiac rehabilitation program is necessary to restore or increase physical capacities and decrease cardiovascular risk. This multidisciplinary care combines physical training sessions and therapeutic education workshops. The COVID-19 pandemic imposed restrictions such as the closure of rehabilitation centres. To remedy this problem, one solution was to adapt the existing program to a remote cardiac telerehabilitation, i.e., medical and paramedical supervision of rehabilitation sessions and therapeutic patient education meetings via digital tools. Recent studies have shown that it was a safe (no reported adverse effects), effective (similar gains in peak oxygen consumption compared to traditional cardiac rehabilitation and patient-adherence alternative.
Cardiac troponin is central to the diagnosis of myocardial infarction and high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) assays are the preferred choice for the assessment of patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome. Since the introduction of hs-cTn assays in Europe in 2010, most hospitals have switched from contemporary sensitive cardiac troponin assays to a hs-cTn assay. The implementation of hs-cTn assays has led to an increase in the number of patients identified with myocardial injury. Although both hs-cTnI and hs-cTnT assays are recommended in current guidelines, the impact of switching from a hs-cTnI assay to a hs-cTnT assay on clinical practice is unknown. At this point, no studies have evaluated the impact of implementing sex-specific hs-cTnT thresholds on the diagnosis of myocardial infarction and outcome in clinical practice. The investigators propose to determine the proportion of patients with and without myocardial injury admitted to the hospital before and after implementation of a hs-cTnT assay and to evaluate the impact on investigations, care and clinical outcomes in consecutive patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome.
The goal of this observational study is to study the non obstructive type of ischemic heart disease by identifying unique clinical features , frequency and age group .in patient admitted in coronary care unit , suffered from angina or heart attack. . The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - how it different from classical type of ischemic heart disease ( obstructive coronary artery disease) - what is frequency and age prevalence of these patient Participants evaluated by history , clinical examination, serum troponin and coronary angiography.
A single center, prospective, observational study to compare fractional flow reserve (FFR) and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) optimization strategies on the functional PCI result (assessed with FFR) immediately post PCI and at 9-12 months after the treatment of long coronary artery lesions.
At least 25 volunteers with a diagnosis of coronary artery disease in the Department of Cardiology of Dokuz Eylul University and who meet the criteria for follow-up and inclusion will participate in the study. Demographic and clinical information of the participants will be questioned. Active video games and exercise sessions will be randomized to last 25 minutes. Before and after the sessions, heart rate, blood pressure, shortness of breath, oxygen saturation and arterial stiffness will be measured. In addition, energy expenditure, heart rate, perceived exertion, shortness of breath and oxygen saturation will be recorded during the sessions. At the end of the sessions, the person will be asked if they enjoy active video games.
Multicenter, prospective, non-randomized, post-market clinical follow-up (PMCF) study to confirm and support the clinical safety and performance of Naviscore scoring balloon to meet EU Medical Device regulation (MDR) requirements in all the CONSECUTIVE patients treated with Naviscore.
The study is planned to be conducted as a two-group randomized controlled trial to determine the effect of lavender inhalation on individuals with coronary heart disease. Research data will be collected at Çukurova University Medical Faculty Balcalı Hospital Cardiology Clinic between January-June 2023. In the study, at least 56 samples were found to be sufficient for the sample size. The data of the study will be collected using the Personal Information Form and the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index.
Aim of the clinical monocentric study is to assess the resistance training exercise intervention in patients with Heart Failure with reduced Ejection Fraction (HFrEF) and coronary artery disease that will best improve peak oxygen uptake (Peak Vo2) and leg strength (assessed Isokinetic). The investigators hypothesize that resistance training exercise with induced a high stress metabolic is more important exercise with induced than a lower stress metabolic.
Abstract Cardiac surgery in adults is associated with the occurrence of post-operative complications. Even minor complications can increase the cost of their treatment. Given the potentially preventable nature of a number of these postoperative complications, preventive methods should be used to improve outcomes after cardiac surgery. One of them, is the choice of anaesthetic technique. Objectives: To evaluate the effects of sevoflurane, isoflurane and propofol on blood oxygen transport function and body energy expenditure during cardiac surgery in adults. Materials and methods. A total of 90 patients were included in the study. All patients were divided into 3 groups: 1- (n=30) included patients who were anesthetized with propofol. The second group (n=30) consisted of patients who underwent sevoflurane inhalation anaesthesia. Group 3 (n=30) was treated with isoflurane. All patients underwent coronary artery bypass grafting under cardiopulmonary bypass.
Conventionally, long-axis in-plane (LA-IP), short-axis out-of-plane (SA-OOP) and dynamic needle tip positioning based on SA-OOP views are commonly used method to image the target vessel during cannulation under US guidance. A modified SA-OOP that add developing line on the ultrasonic probe improve the success rate of cannula insertion into the radial artery on the first attempt.
