Abstract

Coronary angiography is considered to be a safe tool for the evaluation of coronary artery disease and performed in approximately 12 million patients each year worldwide. The aim of our study was to investigate the frequency and predictors of cardiomyocyte injury in patients undergoing elective coronary angiography. A total of 749 consecutive patients who were scheduled to undergo elective coronary angiography were prospectively analyzed. High-sensitivity cardiac troponin T concentrations were measured both before and after elective coronary angiography (without intervention). Acute cardiomyocyte injury was predefined as an absolute increase in high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T of at least 7 ng/L (if also fulfilling a relative change of >20%). Acute cardiomyocyte injury was observed in 101 patients (13.5%, 95% confidence interval [CI], 11.1-16.2). It was independently associated with aortic valve stenosis (odds ratio [OR], 5.4; 95% CI, 3.0-9.8; P <.001), age (OR, 1.05; 95% CI, 1.02-1.08; P <.001), female sex (OR, 3.5; 95% CI, 1.8-6.8; P <.001), contrast volume (OR, 1.006; 95% CI, 1.001-1.012; P = .019 per 10 mL of contrast volume), documented cardiomyopathy (OR, 2.5; 95% CI, 1.0-6.0; P = .045), and mitral regurgitation (OR, 2...Continue Reading

Cardiomyopathy

Cardiomyopathy is a disease of the heart muscle, that can lead to muscular or electrical dysfunction of the heart. It is often an irreversible disease that is associated with a poor prognosis. There are different causes and classifications of cardiomyopathies. Here are the latest discoveries pertaining to this disease.
