In this era of cost control and limited resources available to meet the growing demand for cardiovascular imaging testing, quality control initiatives that reduce the need for alternative testing are highly relevant. The implementation of continuous quality improvement (CQI) through the analysis of variations in clinical or test performance at an organizational or individual level is termed …

Echocardiography is an inexpensive, safe, and portable method commonly used to provide this information. Improvement in the quality of assessment provided by echocardiography continues to be the subject of current clinical programs…

The therapy of patients with chronic heart failure (HF) due to systolic left ventricular dysfunction (SLVD) continues to evolve. There is agreement that all patients with HF due to SLVD should be treated with an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACE-I) and a beta-adrenergic receptor blocking agent (BB) unless contraindicated or not tolerated. The role of angiotensin receptor blocking…

Permanent pacemakers have been used to treat patients with symptomatic bradycardia for 45 years. The earliest pacemakers paced only the ventricle and were used primarily for patients with complete heart block. The need for atrial pacing became apparent as pacing for sinus node dysfunction became more common. Initially, only single-chamber pacing was possible in the atrium, and this was a good…
