Ventriculo-atrial shunt causing tricuspid endocarditis: its percutaneous removal.

Abstract:

:A 21-year-old patient developed tricuspid endocarditis with the distal sections of two redundant ventriculo-atrial shunts remaining in the right atrium. We report their percutaneous removal using a Dotter basket.

  • Apnea-hypopnea and desaturations in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction: Are we aiming at the right target?

    abstract:BACKGROUND:Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is common in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). An increased apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) is associated with poor outcomes. We examined whether an analysis of nocturnal desaturations (NDs) can improve the risk stratification. METHODS:Three-hund...
