متن کامل‘ICD in Primary Prevention: Potential Role of Sympathetic Nerve Imaging’
Patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ 35% are at increased risk for sudden cardiac death (SCD). These patients are likely to receive an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD), effective in reducing the occurrence of SCD in primary prevention. The decision to use an ICD in CHF, according to the current guidelines, is based on New York Hea...
متن کاملICD Therapy for Primary Prevention in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy.
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common and heterogeneous disorder that increases an individual's risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD). This review article discusses the relevant factors that are involved in the challenge of preventing SCD in patients with HCM. The epidemiology of SCD in patients is reviewed as well as the structural and genetic basis behind ventricular arrhythmias in HCM. ...
متن کاملPrimary prevention of sudden death using ICD therapy: incremental steps.
Ever since its development by Dr. Michel Mirowski in the 1970s and its use in clinical practice in 1980, the implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) has improved survival in patients presenting with sustained ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation. Three recent randomized studies—Antiarrhythmic Drugs versus Implantable Defibrillator (AVID) (1), Canadian Implantable Defibrilla...
متن کاملICD-9 Codes for Identifying Influenza Hospitalizations in Children
To the Editor: The effect of influenza on young children is substantial , but most infections are clinically unrecognized (1). As a result, without routine laboratory confirmation of influenza infection in patients admitted to the hospital with influen-zalike illness, accurate estimates of influenza-related hospitalization rates are difficult to obtain. Several statistical models have been deve...
