Performance of CO2-derived Parameters in Predicting Low Cardiac Output Syndrome

In congenital cardiac intensive care, low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS) after surgery is defined by a decrease in cardiac output due to cardiac dysfunction. This syndrome is responsible for postoperative mortality and morbidity, as well as prolonged hospitalization. CO2-derived parameters are increasingly used to identify low cardiac output status by …

Analysis of the Evolution of SUVmax by Quantitative Analysis Method of Bisphosphonate Scintigraphy

Recently, treatment with tafamidis in patients with cardiac ATTR lead to a significant reduction in mortality. The Perugini score is commonly used on planar bone scans to differentiate cardiac ATTR from other amyloidosis or normal patients but fails to evaluate amyloid burden and patient prognosis. Although semi-quantitative methods have been …

Comparison of Surgical Repair Versus Functional Treatment in Patients With Proximal ACL Tear

Isolated ruptures of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) can be proximal, distal or occur in the middle of the ACL. Treatment of patients with proximal lesions should be graded. Functional treatment can be reserved for low-demanding patients in whom the practice level is limited and the risk of progression to …
