Abstract

Background: Background Syncope is a frequent problem among patients who present to the ED, accounts for 3% of emergency department admission and 1% of hospitalization. It is characterized by a comparatively short and self-limited loss of consciousness, which is caused by temporary cerebral hypoperfusion.Objective: Therefore, Risk stratification performed in the ED can guide triage decisions, and Risk-stratifying patients into low, moderate, and high-risk groups can assist medical decisions and determine the patient’s disposition.Discussion: The central point of syncope progression pathophysiology is the reduction of systemic blood pressure (BP) with a drop in global cerebral blood flow. Based on the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) syncope practice guidelines, syncope is classified into three categories, Neurally-mediated syncope (neural reflex syncope), Orthostatic hypotension, Cardiac syncope. Proper evaluation of syncope cases could in turn enable timely hospitalization and treatment by syncope experts. Assessment of a patient with syncope can be difficult, requiring a wide variety of medical testing with high health care costs. Sometimes, even after a careful examina- tion, it may not be possible to determine a definitive etiology for syncope. Given these uncertainties, about one-third of emergency room (ER) syncope/collapse patients are referred for assessment to the hospital, including non to low-risk patients. establish the urgency of any further work-up.Conclusion: Syncope assessment and treatment are very difficult, and syncope cases should be treated and dispositioned properly using proper risk stratification guidelines.

Abstract

Background: The benefit of PCI to improve quality of life (QoL) in chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) is still unclear Objectives: This study aimed to assess the benefit of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in improving QoL among CCS patients receiving OMT.Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study. CCS patients who underwent coronary angiography (CAG) and/or PCI were grouped into OMT plus PCI and OMT groups. The SYNTAX score was used to assess the complexity and severity of coronary artery lesions. The outcome measured was QoL assessed using Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) and rehospitalization.Results: A total of 57 patients in the OMT plus PCI group and 49 patients in the OMT group were included. The percentage of patients with good QoL was higher in the OMT plus PCI group than OMT only group (64.5% vs. 35.5%; p = 0.007). The OMT plus PCI group revealed a better activities of daily living (85.11 ± 12.46 vs. 12.46 ± 21.87; p = 0.014) and angina stability (84.32 ± 23.63 vs. 71.81 ± 27.89; p = 0.014) than OMT group. Among patients with SYNTAX scores of more than 22, achievement of good QoL was greater in the OMT plus PCI group than the OMT group (80.8% vs. 45.5%; p = 0.025).Conclusion: PCI improved the QoL in CCS patients treated with OMT. Second, OMT plus PCI improves physical limitation and angina stability. For patients with a SYNTAX score of more than 22, OMT plus PCI was correlated with good QoL achievement

Abstract

Background : For ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients, reperfusion through primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) must be done to return the coronary arteries' blood flow. However, a large proportion of patients received late PCI. This study aimed to assess the impact of late PCI on the clinical outcomes of STEMI patients.Methods : A retrospective cohort study was conducted in Saiful Anwar General Hospital from January 2017 to April 2018. A total of 192 STEMI patients were divided into three groups: (1) on-time PCI; (2) late PCI; and (3) no PCI. The outcome measured included six months and 12 months of cardiovascular mortality and hospital readmission because of worsening heart failure and recurrent myocardial infarction (MI).Results: At six-month follow-up period, we found that hospital readmission was higher in the no PCI group (9.2% vs. 12.1% vs. 34.8%; p = 0.009). The recurrent MI (0% vs. 0% vs. 7.2%; p = 0.010) and worsening heart failure (6.2% vs. 8.6% vs. 33.3%; p < 0.001) was also higher in the no PCI group. On 12 months follow up period, the mortality (4.6% vs. 13.8% vs. 21.7%; p = 0.015) and hospital readmission (15.4% vs. 20.7% vs. 42%; p = 0.001) rate was higher in no PCI group. Hospital readmission because of worsening heart failure was also higher in no PCI group (9.2% vs. 17.2% vs. 37.7%; p = 0.015).Conclusion: Not performing revascularization was correlated with higher mortality and hospital readmission rate in STEMI patients. Late PCI was associated with better outcomes than not conducting revascularization.

Abstract

AbstractBACKGROUND: Pregnancy is an experience that many women can achieve. Pregnancy is generally well tolerated in asymptomatic patients with cardiomyopathies but in restrictive form cardiomyopathy, pregnancy cannot be tolerated because of poor prognosis. Prior cardiac events, poor functional class (New York Heart Association class III or IV), or advanced left ventricular systolic dysfunction are present, the risk of maternal cardiac complications during pregnancy are markedly increased. Worsening of the clinical condition can occur during pregnancy, despite intensive medical treatment. Although the incident of cardiovascular disease is present 0.5-4% in developed countries, our knowledge about various of cardiomyopathy and pregnancy should be updateable.CONCLUSION: Our literature provide three types of cardiomyopathy in pregnancy with an example condition for each type that relevant during pregnancy. Peripartum cardiomyopathy is the most common form of cardiomyopathy occured in pregnancy therefore a thorough review is needed to give best outcome for pregnancy. Arryhtmia is the commonnest form in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy which need to be regularly monitored and measure should be taken if the arryhtmia is life threatening for mother and the child. Cardiac amyloidosis is the common form of restrictive cardiomyopathy in pregnancy.Keywords: Pregnancy; Cardiomyopathy; Peri Partum Cardio Myopathy (PPCM), Pregnancy, Heart Failure

Abstract

Background : One in three patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) exhibits moderate or severe coronary artery calcification. Coronary calcification remains a major independent predictor of PCI failure and adverse outcomes. PCI of calcified coronary lesions remains challenging, despite significant improvements in the available tools and techniques. Rotational Atherectomy (RA) is a critical component to improve PCI success in these situations by producing lumen enlargement by physical removal of plaque and reduction in plaque rigidity, thus facilitating dilationCase Illustration: A 73-year-old man with exertional angina was referred to our hospital, with a history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, ex-smoker and dyslipidemia. Physical exam, electrocardiogram, chest x-rays, and laboratory findings were unremarkable, but transthoracic echocardiogram revealed anterior wall hypokinesis. History of cardiac catheterization outside of our center with angiographic result of left anterior descending (LAD) lesion, highly calcified, non-dilatable on first several POBA attempts. Coronary angiography at our center, revealed diffuse calcification from proximal to distal of the LAD artery with about 90% maximum stenosis in mid LAD. RA (Rotablator, Boston) was then performed with A 1.50 mm burr gradually advanced at 150,000 rpm to passed the lesion. After deployments of stents, final angiogram showed well positioned stents with good distal run-off flow. The patient was uneventful during the procedure and was discharged following day. Discussion: In experienced hands, RA is as safe as standard PCI. RA is as a tool to make PCI possible in complex lesions with moderate or severe calcification when clinical variables make PCI appropriate. Rotablator is a catheter-based interventional cardiology procedure using a high-speed rotational device designed to ablate atherosclerotic plaque and restore luminal patency. This help to facilitate stent delivery, avoiding the barotrauma caused by repeated high-pressure balloon inflations that can lead to vessel dissection or perforation. Atherectomy can be performed safely with optimal burr selection and proper ablation techniques, and as a result, complication rates have been significantly minimized, with few changes in the acute complications reported in contemporary studies. Keywords: percutaneous coronary intervention, calcified lesion, rotational atherectomy.

Abstract

Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is the most prevalent cardiovascular disease, which remains the leading cause of death worldwide. In Indonesia, it accounts for approximately 1.5% of the entire population. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is taken into consideration as one of the most potent risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. HaemoglobinA1c (HbA1c) reflects a long-term glycemic control and is used as a valuable diabetes biomarker. High serum glucose levels, expressed as glycated hemoglobin levels in diabetics or non-diabetics, are related to varying degrees of systemic inflammation and promote the release of the proinflammatory cytokines. The association between higher glycated serum HbA1c levels and the severity of the coronary disease is well known. The predictive value of HbA1c for CAD severity, re-hospitalization, and the mortality of cardiovascular disease had been studied extensively since 2004. Numerous previous trials discovered that severity of CAD correlated with the elevation of HbA1c levels, suggesting it as a broad surrogate marker for CAD. Thus, HbA1c is currently considered as an independent risk factor for CAD. A higher level of HbA1c and the presence of factors associated with ongoing atherosclerosis and extensive CAD are concomitantly contributing to the higher major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) incidence and long-term mortality.

Abstract

Background: Acute heart failure (AHF) is a significant clinical problem, which has a high prevalence, mortality, and rehospitalization. Congestion is critical in AHF's pathogenesis, which is also a predictor of mortality and rehospitalization in patients with AHF. Aim: Knowing the effect of adding a %Total body water (TBW) test detected by Bioimpedance Analysis to NT-proBNP as a short-term clinical outside predictor of patients with acute heart failure Method: This research is an analytical observational study using prospective cohort methods. The research was conducted at Dr. Saiful Anwar Malang Hospital in January 2018-July 2019, with research subjects taken consecutively against all AHF patients hospitalized at UD dr.UD dr. Saiful Anwar Malang. The data taken in the form of NT-proBNP value during mission and %TBW before the patient leaves the hospital detected with NICaS examination, then the outside seen is mortality rate and rehospitalization due to AHF within 90 days after exiting the hospital. Results:  This study involved 65 subjects who were 61 years old and the majority male. Non-survivor patients had a higher NYHA class, NT-proBNP, and %TBW predischarge than the survivor group. Based on statistical analysis, we found that NT-proBNP is a good predictor of mortality (HI: AUC 0.74; 95%CI 0.59-0.90) and rehospitalization (HI: AUC 0.88; 95%CI 0.78-0.97). Similarly , %TBW pre-discharge shows good predictors of mortality (HI: AUC 0.72, 95%CI 0.56-0.87) and rehospitalization (HI: AUC 0.83, 95%CI 0.73-0.94). The addition of the %TBW predischarge parameter to NT-proBNP results in the best predictor numbers among the three for both mortality (HI: AUC 0.84; 95%CI 0.72-0.96) and rehospitalization (HI: AUC 0.92; 95%CI 0.85-1.00). Conclusion: The addition of predischarge %TBW examination detected by bioimpedance analysis tool against NT-proBNP increases the predicted value of short-term clinical outpatient in the form of mortality and rehospitalization of acute heart failure patients.Keywords: acute heart failure, NT-proBNP, bioimpedance analysis, total body water

Abstract

Coronary artery disease is the leading cause of illness and death in older adults. Around 40% to 50% of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) have multiple coronary artery disease. Multiple vessel coronary disease has been shown to improve cardiac outcomes and survival in patients who have undergone complete revascularization (CR) versus patients who have undergone only incomplete revascularization (ICR). When coronary angiography and PCI of the source of the infarction are performed on patients with STEMI, the risk of adverse cardiac death or myocardial infarction is significantly reduced. Additional research is needed to determine the efficacy of PCI of non-critical lesions. However, following procedures such as CABG or PCI, these procedures may be impossible to perform due to a variety of personal, anatomical, technical, and logistical barriers. In this review, we discussed about benefit of complete revascularization in patient acute coronary syndrome (ACS) with multivessel disease and which patient can be performed aggressive revascularization to achieved CR in clinical practice.Keywords: complete revascularization, acute coronary syndrome, percutaneous coronary intervention

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Patients with acute heart failure and left bundle branch block (LBBB) presenting acute chest pain have many clinical challenges to perform diagnostic and therapeutic process. Recent recommendations stated that the patients with LBBB (new or presumably new) should be performed early revascularization, many of clinical controversies occur due to scientific gaps between current evidence and recommendations. It has led to reviewing other approach to assess this setting.CASE SUMMARY: A 46-year-old man with previous history of dyspnea (long standing heart failure) came to our hospital with recurrent chest pain and acute heart failure. ECG showed LBBB suggesting acute myocardial infarction (excessive discordance in precordial lead). He had normal serial cardiac enzyme with on going ischemia symptom. He had been decided to not perform urgent reperfusion therapy. After five days hospitalization, he discharged home with medicines.DISCUSSION:  This case report provides an example of reviewing existing algorithm to assess acute chest pain in congestive heart failure, regardless of ST segmen deviation in LBBB. Further research is needed to establish the clinical outcome for these patients underwent reperfusion strategy.

Abstract

Background: Hypertension has been presumed to be associated with the severity of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) related to angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). Besides, hyponatremia is the most common electrolyte disorder in COVID-19 patients and has been reported to be associated with increased mortality.Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the association between hypertension and hyponatremia in COVID-19 patients who were admitted to Wahidin Sudirohusodo General Hospital Mojokerto.Method: In this study, we cross-sectionally investigated COVID-19 patients who were admitted to Wahidin Sudirohusodo General Hospital Mojokerto between December 2020 and January 2021. According to medical records, we evaluated COVID-19 patients who have hypertension as comorbidities and hyponatremia from laboratory results. Result: There were 98 COVID-19 patients enrolled in this study. The prevalence was 51 % men and 49 % women. The mean number of patients age was 55.6 + 12.4 years. The prevalence of hypertension among patients was 55.1%. The mean number of sodium level was 131.50 + 11.29 mmol/L. There was a strong correlation between blood pressure and sodium balance disorders (p<0,002). Hypertension was associated with a nearly 5.5-fold increased risk of hyponatremia in COVID-19 patients (OR 5.06; 95% CI; 1.66-15.4; p<0,05).Conclusion: Hypertension comorbidity was associated with a higher risk of hyponatremia in COVID-19 patients.Keywords: Hypertension, Hyponatremia, COVID-19
