Electrocardiogram (ECG). This test measures the electrical activity of the heart. Echocardiogram (Echo). This test uses sound waves to give a moving picture of the heart and valves. This is one of the ...

Aims Exercise testing remains underused in patients with aortic stenosis (AS), partly due to concerns about an ...

This time, doctors performed thorough scans, and transferred her to the National Heart Centre Singapore (NHCS). She was diagnosed with severe aortic stenosis. This is a degenerative heart condition in ...

ECG-gated CT-AVC and contrast-enhanced CT angiography were performed in diastole ... Statistical analysis was undertaken using R V.4.0.2 (Vienna, Austria). A total of 164 participants with aortic ...

ed.ac.uk To review the pathophysiology of fibrocalcific aortic stenosis, the myocardial response to pressure overload and current clinical guidelines concerning the timing of valve intervention. To ...

The coexistence of transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR‐CA) and aortic stenosis (AS) is increasingly recognized, but the clinical consequences are unclear. We aimed to characterize clinical ...

PanEcho found it had a high degree of accuracy in detecting or discounting a range of cardiovascular disorders, including severe aortic stenosis, mitral stenosis, aortic regurgitation, mitral ...

In patients greater than age 65, more than 90% of aortic stenosis involves trileaflet valves which have developed heavy calcification. [5] In these instances the calcium deposits are thought to ...

Aortic stenosis, affecting nine million people globally, is often unnoticed as symptoms are mistaken for aging. This heart condition, common in elderly, restricts blood flow due to valve narrowing ...

Aortic stenosis (AS) was historically considered a disease of the left side of the heart, with the main pathophysiological impact being predominantly on the left ventricle (LV). However, progressive ...

AK-AVS™, which is designed to leverage the ubiquity of the electrocardiogram (ECG) to identify potential cases of aortic valve stenosis within millions of ECGs already present in healthcare ...

In this review, authors discuss how multimodality imaging can help to evaluate the left ventricular remodeling response and improve risk stratification in patients with moderate aortic stenosis. In ...
