Tricuspid regurgitant jet velocity and hospitalization in Tanzanian children with sickle cell anemia

Tricuspid regurgitant jet velocity and hospitalization in Tanzanian children with sickle cell anemia.

Elevated tricuspid regurgitant jet velocity in children and adolescents with sickle cell disease: association with hemolysis and hemoglobin oxygen desaturation.

BACKGROUND Elevation of echocardiography-determined tricuspid regurgitant jet velocity predicts high systolic pulmonary artery pressure and early mortality in adults with sickle cell disease. The definition, prevalence and clinical correlates of elevated jet velocity have not been established in pediatric patients. The present study tested the hypotheses that elevated jet velocity affects 10% o...

evaluation of tricuspid regurgitant jet velocity in thalassemia patients with splenectomy

conclusions the etiology of pah in thalassemia is multifactorial such as inflammatory mediators. also, the absence of the spleen plays an important role in developing a high trv and pah. results average age of the patients was 21.15 ± 6.68 years. no significant difference was observed in the pap between the 2 groups of thalassemia major and intermedia and also the 2 sex groups. indeed, 6.6% of ...

Blood Pressure of Children and Adolescents with Sickle Cell Anemia in Basra, Iraq

Background: Blood pressure in patients with sickle cell anemia (SCA) is influenced by autonomic cardiovascular dysfunction, endocrinopathies, nephropathy and nutritional factors. We aimed to evaluate systemic and diastolic blood pressure and its severity among children and adolescents with SCA and determine its association with clinical and hematological variables. Methods: This case-control s...
