Application of Stents (Coronary Angioplasty)

A coronary stent is a medical "device," that is, an instrument used in Coronary Angioplasty to clear the way for possible blockages in the coronary arteries by following invasive techniques having the goal of restoring regular blood circulation within the heart by ensuring its proper function.

Working professions in mitral valve disease

It is well known that risk factors for heart disease include habits such as excessive alcohol use, such as smoking, a high-protein and high-fat diet, and also genetic factors, while less consideration is often given to factors of occupational origin.

ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION, WHAT TO KNOW AND WHAT TO DO

The mechanism that determines erection in the male arises from sexual arousal, which in turn is the result of the participation of emotions, the brain, hormonal flows, heart and vessels, muscles and nerves. Sometimes even one of these factors can cause erectile dysfunction, which can worsen when a state of emotional malaise and stress or even a persistent state of anxiety is added to it.

Aortic valve repair

When aortic valvulopathy presents significant quality-of-life problems for the patient but also obvious risks of serious consequences, cardiac surgery may be necessary.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a condition in which the heart muscle thickens, becoming hypertrophic, in the absence of dilation of the ventricles. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy affects men and women equally. It is

Why do I get cramps when I run?

A muscle cramp can come suddenly , such as during a run , and it does not announce itself with any kind of sign. At most you may realize it is coming very late , when already the muscle is contracting or overlapping.

Mitral valve regurgitation

It is a condition in which the mitral valve leaflets do not close tightly, causing blood to leak backward into the left atrium of the heart.

THE PREDICTION OF OUTCOMES

Once circulation has been restored in the patient suffering from Cardiac Arrest, following hospital discharge, one must wait for subsequent outcomes by ensuring that, in addition to spontaneous circulatory restoration, no neurological damage occurs.

Survival data also depend on some favorable factors such as:

  • Rapid and effective cardiopulmonary resuscitation
  • Treatment performed n an emergency department with the possibility equipped with patient monitoring
  • Initial rhythm of ventricular fibrillation
  • Defibrillation performed for time of ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia
  • Post-arrest treatment, such as circulatory enhancement therapy and use of cardiac catheterization
  • In adults, maintaining a body temperature of 32 to 36°C over 24 hours, preventing the occurrence of hyperthermia

Jugular stenosis corresponds to a narrowing of the lumen of the jugular veins, which are the main blood vessels that collect oxygen-poor blood from the brain and return it to

Ablation of atrial fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation surgery is a surgical procedure aimed at eliminating the source of the cardiac arrhythmia through the selective destruction of small portions of the cardiac tissue present

Carotid stenosis

Carotid artery stenosis corresponds to a narrowing of the caliber of the carotid arteries, which are the main blood vessels supplying the brain with oxygen- and nutrient-rich blood (particularly glucose),

Shock, medical emergency

It may happen that the circulation of blood through the body undergoes a sudden change giving rise to a condition of physiological shock, with decreased flow and crisis on the

Heart failure (acute)

Acute Heart Failure (AHF) is a potentially life-threatening clinical condition that can result from the worsening of an already diagnosed chronic heart failure (heart failure) or represent its onset event.
