Association of preoperative clinical frailty and clinical outcomes in elderly patients with stable coronary artery disease after percutaneous coronary intervention
AbstractThere are few reports on the long-term clinical outcome after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) complicated with frailty. This novel study investigated the association between pre-PCI frailty and long-term clinical outcomes in elderly patients aged 65  years or older with stable CAD who underwent elective PCI. We assessed 239 consecutive patients aged 65 years or older with stable CAD who underwent successful elective PCI at Kagoshima City Hospital between January 1st, 2017 and December 31st, 2020. Frailty was retrospectively assessed using the Canadian...

Poststroke venous thromboembolism and neutrophil activation: an illustrated review
Res Pract Thromb Haemost. 2023 Apr 29;7(4):100170. doi: 10.1016/j.rpth.2023.100170. eCollection 2023 May.ABSTRACTPatients with acute ischemic stroke are at a high risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT), estimated to affect approximately 80,000 patients with stroke each year in the United States. The prevalence of symptomatic DVT after acute stroke is approximately 10%. VTE is associated with increased rates of in-hospital death and disability, with higher prevalence of in-hospital complications and increased 1-year mortality in patients with stroke. Current guidelines recommend the use of ...

What Sub-Saharan African Nations Can Teach the U.S. About Black Maternal Health
While poor maternal outcomes among Black women in the U.S. is not new, improving it is imperative. U.S. policymakers can look to sub-Saharan Africa for guidance on reversing this trend. Credit: Ernest Ankomah/IPSBy Ifeanyi NsoforABUJA, Jun 2 2023 (IPS) New research shows that Black mothers in the United States disproportionately live in counties with higher maternal vulnerability and face greater risk of preterm death for the fetus, greater risk of low birth weight for a baby, and a higher number of maternal deaths. While poor maternal outcomes among Black women in the U.S. is not new, improving it is imperative. U.S. poli...

Rescue aortic valvuloplasty for severe aortic stenosis is simple and effective in severely hemodynamically compromised patients presenting to centers without on-site heart surgery or TAVI facilities
AbstractManagement of high-risk patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) is a challenging issue. The prognosis of patients with AS presenting  with therapy-refractory pulmonary edema (RPE) or cardiogenic shock (CS) remains poor. The purpose of this study was to assess the 30-day mortality of rescue percutaneous balloon aortic valvuloplasty (PBAV) in AS patients presenting with RPE or CS in a community-based hospital without on- site heart surgery. From January 2016 to February 2019, we identified consecutively admitted patients with CS or RPE related to severe AS who underwent emergent PBAV. The primary end...

A Rare Cause of Life-Threatening Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding
Question: A 66-year-old woman presented to the hospital with large-volume hematemesis and melena. Her past medical history was significant for an episode of native valve infective endocarditis secondary to a skin infection 4 years earlier, with an associated embolic stroke of the left middle cerebral artery. Her daily medications included aspirin and atorvastatin. She denied any intake of other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. She had no history of peptic ulcer disease or liver disease. On arrival to the hospital, the patient ’s blood pressure was 90/60 mm Hg, with a heart rate of 140 beats/min.

Real-world clinical outcomes among US Veterans with oral factor xa inhibitor –related major bleeding treated with andexanet alfa or 4-factor prothrombin complex concentrate
AbstractOral factor Xa (FXa) inhibitors significantly reduce incidence of stroke and thromboembolic events in patients with atrial fibrillation or venous thromboembolism. Due to various factors and the lack of a randomized controlled trial comparing andexanet alfa to usual care, non-specific replacement agents including 4  F-PCC are still used off-label for FXa inhibitor bleed management. Clinical and mortality data were extracted from the inpatient medical data and Veteran Affairs (VA) vital status files over the time of March 2014 through December 2020. Propensity score-weighted models were used for this retrospec tive ...

Anticoagulation practices and complications associated with Impella ® support at an advanced cardiac center in the Middle East gulf region
AbstractAnticoagulation during Impella ® support is a challenge due to its complications and inconsistent practice across the globe. This observational, retrospective chart review included all patients with Impella® support at our advanced cardiac center at a quaternary care hospital in the Middle East gulf region. The study was conduc ted over six years (2016–2022), a time period during which manufacturer recommendations for purge solution, anticoagulation protocols as well as Impella® place in therapy and utilization were all evolving. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of different anticoagulation practices and asso...
