Angiographic findigs and prognostic indicators in patients resuscitated from sudden cardiac death.

Sixty-four patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) who had been resuscitated from out-of-hospital ventricular fibrillation (VF) underwent cardiac catheterization and angiography. The majority (72%) had a previous history of cardiovascular disease; in the remaining 28%, VF was the first manifestation of CAD. Advanced coronary atherosclerosis was a common finding; 94% of the patients had seve...

Long-term outcome and prognostic determinants in children with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

OBJECTIVES We sought to determine clinical, angiographic, and echocardiographic predictors of survival in children with isolated hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in a large pediatric centre. BACKGROUND Sudden death is a catastrophic outcome of HCM in childhood but has been difficult to predict. Current therapies might provide for improved outcome if factors identifying high risk can be ident...

A Familial Cause of Sudden Death

Background—A prolonged QT interval is associated with a risk for life-threatening events. However, little is known about prognostic implications of the reverse—a short QT interval. Several members of 2 different families were referred for syncope, palpitations, and resuscitated cardiac arrest in the presence of a positive family history for sudden cardiac death. Autopsy did not reveal any struc...

Predicting the Presence of an Acute Coronary Lesion Among Patients Resuscitated From Cardiac Arrest.

BACKGROUND A mechanism to stratify patients resuscitated from a cardiac arrest according to the likelihood of an acute coronary lesion would have significant utility. We thus sought to develop and validate a risk prediction model for the presence of an acute coronary lesion among patients resuscitated from an arrest. METHODS AND RESULTS All subjects undergoing coronary angiography after resus...

بررسی تاثیر اکسیژن درمانی شبانه بر روی QT dispersion در بیماران مبتلا به نارسایی مزمن قلب

Abstract Background: Nocturnal hypoxia is an important factor increasing the risk of mortality in patients with chronic heart failure and is associated with atrial and ventricular arrhythmias. QT dispersion, an index of myocardial electrical activity, is used as a prognostic tool in determining future malignant arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. In the current study we investigated the effec...
