Journal Title: Cardiology Journal - Year 2009, Vol 16, Issue 3
Abstract
Supraventricular arrhythmia (SVA) is a frequent clinical complication in adult patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). The aim of this study is prognostic evaluation of congenital heart defect complexity, performed cardiac surgery, initial functional impairment of the heart - NYHA > I, cyanosis, age and sex of the adult patients with CHD, presenting for the first time to an outpatient clinic, on SVA occurrence during long-term observation.

Clinical and classic echocardiographic features of patients with, and without, left ventricle reverse remodeling following the introduction of cardiac resynchronization therapy.
Background: The aim of the study was to assess clinical and classic echocardiographic data in patients with different cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) outcomes. Methods: Sixty consecutive patients (aged 66.3 ± 8.7...
Quality of visualization of coronary venous system in 64-slice computed tomography.
Multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) can be used to visualize the anatomy of the coronary venous system (CVS). A pre-procedural evaluation of target veins is a very important element of cardiac resynchronization. Thus,...
