Researchers develop new method for monitoring critically ill patients with circulatory shock

Critically ill patients with circulatory shock - when the heart cannot pump enough blood and oxygen to the rest of the body, often as a result of heart failure, sepsis, or hemorrhage - require close monitoring and treatment, especially to maintain adequate blood pressure to prevent injury to important organs.

Study provides the first comprehensive look of pediatric preventive cardiology care

Today in the U.S., a child with risk factors for heart disease (high blood pressure, overweight, etc.) can wait close to a year to see a cardiologist because of high demand and limited resources.

High troponin levels associated with increased risk of death from any cause

A high level of troponin - a protein normally used to exclude the possibility of a heart attack in patients with chest pain - may signal a heightened risk of death from any cause within the next couple of years, even in the absence of known or suspected cardiovascular disease, suggests research published online in the journal Heart.

Prenatal diagnosis is linked to earlier surgery for babies with congenital heart defects

A study from Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago has shown that prenatal diagnosis, or diagnosis before a baby is born, is associated with earlier surgery for babies with congenital heart defects, the most common birth defects affecting nearly 1% of all live births.

New method for assessing the structural changes in cardiac arrhythmia

A multidisciplinary study led by scientists at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares (CNIC) presents a new method for assessing the structural and electrophysiological changes, called atrial remodeling, produced in the heart of patients with atrial fibrillation, one of the most frequent forms of cardiac arrhythmia.
