Author(s): Usha B Tedrow Added: 3 years ago
Since the 1980s, dramatic advances in electrophysiology procedures have occurred. Catheter positioning is most often assisted by fluoroscopy. Sophisticated electroanatomical mapping systems can also display catheter position and create a 3D depiction of the anatomy. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) data can also be integrated, facilitating complex ablation procedures… View more

CV Disease in Special Populations
Author(s): Alexandra Gonçalves , Carla Sousa , José Alberto de Agustín , et al Added: 3 years ago
Valvular disease is the most prevalent structural heart disease among adults and its burden is growing along with the increase in life expectancy.1 Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the second most frequent valvular disease, after aortic stenosis. Its natural history is very variable and highly dependent on the presence of symptoms. However, even in asymptomatic patients, the prognosis of severe MR is… View more

Cardiovascular ultrasound is an established imaging modality in the practice of cardiovascular disease (CVD), whether this is provided by a CV specialist or health professionals with training in internal medicine. Transthoracic imaging wherein the transducer is placed on the chest wall has some limitations. These include inadequate quality of images resulting in poor informationÔÇöapproximately 5… View more

Heart Failure
Author(s): Michael N Young , Sammy Elmariah Added: 3 years ago
Severe aortic valve stenosis (AS) is chronic, progressive illness that confers significant morbidity and mortality. Once symptomatic, patients with severe AS will ultimately succumb to the disease if it is not promptly corrected.1 Historically, surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) served as the exclusive therapeutic option to correct this mechanical problem.2 However, in 2002, Alain Cribier… View more

Risk of Complications During Pregnancy in Women with Congenital Aortic Valve Stenosis
Author(s): Els Troost , Werner Budts Added: 3 years ago
The prevalence of heart disease in pregnant women is estimated to be between 0.1 and 4%; although the prevalence has not changed for decades, the relative contribution of different types of heart disease varies according to the study population and the study period. Nowadays, in developed countries the largest group of females with an underlying heart disease consists of women with congenital… View more
