Myocardial Ischemia in Congenital Heart Disease: A Review
نویسندگان
چکیده
Patients with congenital heart disease (CxHD) are surviving into adulthood, as well as living longer and growing older [1], due the major achievements in their diagnosis, medical man‐ agement, surgical repair, and postoperative treatment in the last three to four decades. An increasing numbers of patients with CxHD are encountered in our everyday practice. It is therefore timely and appropriate to start addressing the somewhat-neglected issue of myo‐ cardial ischemia in this patient population [2].

Cardiovascular disease (CAD) screening in asymptomatic patients with diabetes mellitus is controversial. An exercise stress test is a safe and effective initial testing for Ischemic Heart Disease (IHD) screening. Treadmill stress test is not the best screening method for a particular patient who is not able to exercise, abnormal electrocardiogram (ECG) or positive exercise treadmill test (ETT) ...

It has been recognized that patients with Cyanotic Congenital Heart Disease (CCHD) show significant bleeding tendency which can be secondary to coagulopathies in these patients. Some coagulation abnormalities are thrombocytopenia, factor deficiencies, fibrinolysis and Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC). According to high prevalence of CCHD and major operations in theses patients, th...

Background: Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of human mortality worldwide. Myocardial ischemia is a type of cardiovascular disease that increases with age spread. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to compare non-invasive myocardial ischemia in patients with heart problems in different age groups. Methods: This study is a causal-comparative study was conducted from July to O...
متن کاملIschemic Heart Disease
Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is the generic designation for a group of closely related syndromes resulting from myocardial ischemia—an imbalance between the supply (perfusion) and demand of the heart for oxygenated blood. Ischemia comprises not only insufficiency of oxygen, but also reduced availability of nutrient substrates and inadequate removal of metabolites (see Chapter 1 ). Isolated hypo...
