متن کاملThe utilization of twelve-lead electrocardiography for predicting sudden cardiac death after heart transplantation.
BACKGROUND Sudden cardiac death (SCD) occurs commonly after heart transplantation (HTX). The utilization of surface electrocardiography (ECG) to assess post-HTX SCD has not been investigated thoroughly. This study aimed to investigate the specific changes in surface ECG in HTX patients with SCD. METHODS A total of 227 HTX patients (age 48 ± 14 y/o, mean donor age 34 ± 14 y/o, 173 males) were ...
متن کاملOrthotopic liver transplantation from cardiac death donors in the mouse: a new model and evaluation of cardiac death time
Objective(s): The goal of this research was to develop a mouse orthotopic liver transplantation (LTx) model from donor-after-cardiac-death (DCD) grafts. Materials and Methods: Mice were randomly assigned to the experimental group or the sham group. The mice in the experimental group were divided into three groups according to the warm ischemia time (WIT) of liver graft: normal LTx, WIT 30 minut...
متن کاملSudden Cardiac Death Sudden Cardiac Death Caused by Coronary Heart Disease
An association between the anatomic pathology and pathophysiology of coronary atherosclerosis and sudden cardiac death (SCD) has been long recognized. At the end of the 15th century, Da Vinci described a personally witnessed SCD that he attributed to a “parched and shrunk and withered ... artery that feeds the heart” at autopsy,1 and in 1812, Warren, commenting on the significance of Heberden’s...
متن کاملPredicting sudden cardiac death in heart failure.
Ahmad et al. (1) suggest that biomarkers related to myocardial stress and fibrosis add some weight to the prediction of mode of death in patients with heart failure–reduced ejection fraction (HF-REF), particularly pump failure as opposed to sudden cardiac death (SCD). A variety of biomarkers have been shown to predict adverse ventricular remodeling/progressive pump failure, including natriureti...
