Myocardial infarction (MI) is associated with acute risk of early malignant arrhythmias that can be easily treated during in-hospital intensive care by defibrillation, adjuvant antiarrhythmic therapy or even catheter ablation in resistant cases. Indeed, such management resulted in substantial improvement in MI survival rate. Despite the implementation of primary percutaneous coronary…

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a chronic and life-threatening disease characterised by progressive vascular remodelling that leads to increased pulmonary vascular resistance, right ventricular heart failure and death. PAH is defined by >25 mmHg increase in pulmonary arterial blood pressure and a pulmonary capillary wedge pressure of 15 mmHg.1 If left untreated PAH is fatal; it has a…

Topic: 3. Heart Failure and Cardiomyopathy
Introduction and Objectives
Although treatment optimization in patients with heart failure and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFrEF) may result in left ventricular reverse remodelling (LVRR) in some cases, predictors of this phenomenon are scarce. This study aimed to: 1) determine the incidence and predictors of absence of LVRR after…
