Abstract

Because stress-induced cardiomyopathy (SIC) is increasingly being observed during routine daily practice, we sought to explore the clinical features and factors that determine the outcome of SIC in a tertiary referral hospital. Patients with typical left ventricular (LV) takotsubo (apical ballooning) or inverted takotsubo on 2-dimensional echocardiography were prospectively enrolled, and their clinical data were analyzed. Over a 63-month period, 56 consecutive patients (median age and interquartile range=64 years [52-74 years]) were identified. Women comprised 79% (44/56) of all patients. The triggering events were acute medical illness, including sepsis and hypoxemia in 29 patients (52%, group A), in-hospital surgery/procedure in 17 patients (30%, group B), and emotional stress in 10 patients (18%, group C). Chest pain was more frequently observed in group C (50%) than in groups A (14%) and B (6%) (P=.021), whereas dyspnea was the presenting symptom in groups A and B. Typical takotsubo and inverted takotsubo were observed in 48 and 8 patients, with a median ejection fraction of 33%. Other abnormalities included dynamic LV outflow tract obstruction (n=2), LV thrombus (n=2), and right ventricular dysfunction (n=12). Nine deaths ...Continue Reading

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.

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.
