Cardiac transplant and exercise cardiac rehabilitation
AbstractCardiac transplantation is the final therapeutic option for patients with end-stage heart failure. Most patients experience a favorable functional ability post-transplant. However, episodes of acute rejection, and multiple comorbidities such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease and cardiac allograft vasculopathy are common. The number of transplants has increased steadily over the past two decades with 3,817 operations performed in the United States in 2021. Patients have abnormal exercise physiologic responses related to surgical cardiac denervation, diastolic dysfunction, and the legacy of r...

Improved mortality and haemodynamics with milrinone in cardiogenic shock due to acute decompensated heart failure
ConclusionsThe use of milrinone compared with dobutamine in patients with ADHF-CS is associated with lower 30  day mortality and improved haemodynamics. These findings warrant further study in future randomized controlled trials.

Screening and Management of Coronary Artery Disease in Kidney Transplant Candidates
Diagnostics (Basel). 2023 Aug 20;13(16):2709. doi: 10.3390/diagnostics13162709.ABSTRACTCardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), especially in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients and during the first year after transplantation. For these reasons, and due to the shortage of organs available for transplant, it is of utmost importance to identify patients with a good life expectancy after transplant and minimize the transplant peri-operative risk. Various conditions, such as severe pulmonary diseases, recent myocardial infarction or stroke, and ...
