MADIT-II: clinical implications.
The MADIT-II trial showed that in patients with a prior myocardial infarction and ejection fraction </=0.30, prophylactic implantation of a defibrillator improves survival with a 31% reduction in mortality during an average follow-up of 20 months. Electrophysiologic inducibility was positive in 36% of patients at the time of ICD implantation. Inducibility was associated with increased ICD utili...
متن کاملMADIT-II and its implications.
The major risks associated with coronary disease are angina, acute myocardial infarction, reduced cardiac function as manifest by depressed left ventricular ejection fraction and congestive heart failure, and sudden arrhythmogenic cardiac death. During the past three decades, considerable advances have been made in the management of patients with coronary heart disease with betablockers, calciu...
متن کاملComparison of noninvasive prenatal testing of cell‐free DNA in maternal blood and amniocentesis for evaluation of aneuploidy
Background: The aim of this study was to compare noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) of cell‐free DNA in maternal blood and amniocentesis in the diagnosis of aneuploidy. This study was designed to evaluate sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of NIPT for detection of aneuploidies compared gold standard test of amniocentesis. Materials and m...
متن کاملMADIT II , Multicenter Automatic Defibrillator Implantation Trial II
Cardiogenic shock (CS) occurs in 5% to 8% of patients hospitalized with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Recent research has suggested that the peripheral vasculature and neurohormonal and cytokine systems play a role in the pathogenesis and persistence of CS. Early revascularization for CS improves survival substantially. New mechanical approaches to treatment are available, and cli...
متن کاملRepolarization variability in the risk stratification of MADIT II patients.
AIMS QT variability has been reported to be associated with ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. There is limited data regarding variability in T-wave morphology and its prognostic value. In this study, we present a novel approach for the measurement of T-wave variability (TWV) reflecting changes in T-wave morphology, and we investigate the prognostic significance of Holter-derived...
