Abstract

A 12-year-old girl with aortic valvular stenosis underwent transcatheter balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV) using a femoral artery approach. Anticoagulation with heparin during the procedure was used. The patient noted sudden onset of concentric constriction of the visual field in the right eye 40 min after BAV. Brain magnetic resonance imaging and cervical ultrasound revealed no abnormality. Funduscopic examination showed white swelling around the macular region, indicating ischemia, consistent with central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO). CRAO should be recognized as a rare and serious complication associated with BAV even among the pediatric population. This requires careful evaluation of anticoagulation during the left heart procedures.

Niedriger diastolischer Blutdruck erhöht Risiko für schwere kardiovaskuläre Komplikationen

25.04.2024 Hypotonie Nachrichten

Wenn unter einer medikamentösen Hochdrucktherapie der diastolische Blutdruck in den Keller geht, steigt das Risiko für schwere kardiovaskuläre Ereignisse: Darauf deutet eine Sekundäranalyse der SPRINT-Studie hin.

Der als Antidiabetikum sowie zum Gewichtsmanagement zugelassene Wirkstoff Tirzepatid hat in Studien bei adipösen Patienten auch schlafbezogene Atmungsstörungen deutlich reduziert, informiert der Hersteller in einer Vorab-Meldung zum Studienausgang.

Komplette Revaskularisation bei Infarkt: Neue Studie setzt ein Fragezeichen

Eine FFR-gesteuerte komplette Revaskularisation war in einer Studie bei Patienten mit akutem Myokardinfarkt und koronarer Mehrgefäßerkrankung klinisch nicht wirksamer als eine alleinige Revaskularisation der Infarktarterie.
