RESUMO

Background: 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-CT (FDG-PET/CT) is useful for identifying infective endocarditis (IE) but also the detection of other concomitant septic foci. Previously, we found that FDG-PET/CT identified an osteoarthritic septic graft (OASG) in 19.1% of IE patients, frequently asymptomatic. These preliminary results encouraged us to extend our analyses to a larger population, including all patients initially explored for suspected IE, to assess the prevalence, characteristics, and OASG locations brought out by FDG-PET/CT and to identify predictive factors. Methods: From a single-center cohort of patients referred for a clinical and/or biological suspicion of IE, we included all patients who underwent FDG-PET/CT, mainly performed to confirm a prosthesis heart valve or a foreign cardiac device infection. We excluded those who did not meet the 2015 modified Duke Criteria and those for whom another infectious diagnosis was finally retained or for whom all bacterial samples were negative. Demographic, clinical, bacteriological, imaging, and therapeutic data were collected. FDG-PET/CT images were retrospectively analyzed by three blinded nuclear medicine specialists to identify OASGs. Results: We identified 72 distinct OASG locations by FDG-PET/CT in 48 of 174 patients (27.6%), mainly located in the spine (21 OASGs in 20 patients); 14 patients (8.0%) had several OASG locations. In total, 43.8% of OASG locations were asymptomatic. In multivariate analysis, the presence of OASGs was associated with musculoskeletal pain (p < 0.001) and tricuspid valve involvement (p = 0.002). Conclusions: FDG-PET/CT is useful for identifying OASGs in patients with suspected IE, especially those with tricuspid IE or musculoskeletal pain. The identification of OASGs could impact antibiotic therapy and would allow adapted orthopedic management to be proposed.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Infective endocarditis (IE) typically occurs in patients with underlying cardiac conditions (UCC). Little is known about IE in patients without UCC. We aimed to describe the clinical, microbiological and imaging characteristics, management, and in-hospital mortality of IE patients without UCC. METHODS: We analysed the data of patients with definite IE included in an observatory between 1st January 2009 and 31st December 2019. We described patients without UCC compared to those with UCC. RESULTS: Of 1502 IE patients, 475 (31.6%) had no UCC. They were younger (median 64.0 [19.0-101.0] vs. 70.0 [18.0-104.0] years, p < .001), more often on chronic haemodialysis (5.5% vs. 2.7%, p = .008), and had more often malignancy (22.5% vs. 17.3%, p = .017), immune deficiency (10.3% vs. 6.4%, p = .008), and an indwelling central venous line (14.5% vs. 7.0%, p < .001). They more often developed cerebral complications (34.7% vs. 27.5%, p = .004) and extracerebral embolism (48.6% vs. 36.1%, p < .001). Causative microorganisms were less often coagulase negative staphylococci (5.9% vs. 10.8%, p = .002) or enterococci (10.3% vs. 15.0%, p = .014) and more often group D streptococci (14.1% vs. 10.0%, p = .020). Vegetations were more common (92.8% vs. 77.0%, p < .001) and larger (14.0 [1.0-87.0], vs. 12.0 [0.5-60.0] mm, p = .002). They had more valve perforation or valve regurgitation (67.4% vs. 53.0%, p < .001) and underwent valve surgery more often (53.5% vs. 36.3%, p < .001). In-hospital mortality did not significantly differ between groups. CONCLUSION: Patients with IE and no UCC were younger than those with UCC, had specific comorbidities and portals of entry, and a more severe disease course.

RESUMO

Purpose: Post-operative vasoplegic syndrome is a dreaded complication in infective endocarditis (IE). Methods and Results: This retrospective study included 166 consecutive patients referred to cardiac surgery for non-shocked IE. Post-operative vasoplegic syndrome was defined as a persistent hypotension (mean blood pressure < 65 mmHg) refractory to fluid loading and cardiac output restoration. Cardiac surgery was performed 7 (5−12) days after the beginning of antibiotic treatment, 4 (1−9) days after negative blood culture and in 72.3% patients with adapted anti-biotherapy. Timing of cardiac surgery was based on ESC guidelines and operating room availability. Most patients required valve replacement (80%) and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) duration was 106 (95−184) min. Multivalvular surgery was performed in 43 patients, 32 had tricuspid valve surgery. Post-operative vasoplegic syndrome was reported in 53/166 patients (31.9%, 95% confidence interval of 24.8−39.0%) of the whole population; only 15.1% (n = 8) of vasoplegic patients had a post-operative documented infection (6 positive blood cultures) and no difference was reported between vasoplegic and non-vasoplegic patients for valve culture and the timing of cardiac surgery. Of the 23 (13.8%) in hospital-deaths, 87.0% (n = 20) occurred in the vasoplegic group and the main causes of death were multiorgan failure (n = 17) and neurological complications (n = 3). Variables independently associated with vasoplegic syndrome were CPB duration (1.82 (1.16−2.88) per tertile) and NTproBNP level (2.11 (1.35−3.30) per tertile). Conclusions: Post-operative vasoplegic syndrome is frequent and is the main cause of death after IE cardiac surgery. Our data suggested that the mechanism of vasoplegic syndrome was more related to inflammatory cardiovascular injury rather than the consequence of ongoing bacteremia.

RESUMO

Short RP interval atrioventricular re-entrant tachycardias do not typically present as an incessant form. We present 2 cases of incessant atrioventricular re-entrant tachycardias leading to tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy with severe heart failure presentation in middle-aged adults. Both underwent accessory pathway ablation and recovered normal left ventricle function before hospital discharge. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.).

RESUMO

To assess the need for prolonged incubation of blood culture bottles beyond five days for the diagnosis of infectious endocarditis (IE), we conducted a retrospective cohort study of 6109 sets of two blood culture bottles involving 1211 patients admitted to the Henri Mondor University Hospital for suspicion of IE between 1 January 2016 and 31 December 2019. Among the 322 patients with IE, 194 had positive blood cultures in our centre. Only one patient with a time-to-positivity blood culture of more than 120 h (5 days) was found. The main cause for the 22 patients with positive blood cultures after five days was contamination with Cutibacterium acnes. Our results do not support extending the duration of incubation of blood culture bottles beyond five days for the diagnosis of infectious endocarditis, with the exception of patients with risk factors for C. acnes infection.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Severe coronavirus-induced disease 2019 (COVID-19) leads to acute respiratory distress syndrome with an increased risk of venous thrombo-embolic events. To a much lesser extent, arterial thrombo-embolic events have also been reported in this setting. CASE SUMMARY: Here, we describe four different cases of COVID-19 infection with ischaemic arterial events, such as a myocardial infarction with high thrombus load, ischaemic stroke on spontaneous thrombosis of the aortic valve, floating thrombus with mesenteric, splenic and renal infarction, and acute limb ischaemia. DISCUSSION: Cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension, obesity, and diabetes are comorbidities most frequently found in patients with a severe COVID-19 infection and are associated with a higher death rate. Our goal is to provide an overview of the clinical spectrum of ischaemic arterial events that may either reveal or complicate COVID-19. Several suspected pathophysiological mechanisms could explain the association between cardiovascular events and COVID-19 (role of systemic inflammatory response syndrome, endothelial dysfunction, activation of coagulation cascade leading to a hypercoagulability state, virus-induced secondary antiphospholipid syndrome). We need additional studies of larger size, to estimate the incidence of these arterial events and to assess the efficacy of anticoagulation therapy.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Evaluate the impact of valvular calcifications measured on cardiac computed tomography (CCT) in patients with infective endocarditis (IE). METHODS: Seventy patients with native IE (36 aortic IE, 31 mitral IE, 3 bivalvular IE) were included and explored with CCT between January 2016 and April 2018. Mitral and aortic valvular calcium score (VCS) were measured on unenhanced calcium scoring images, and correlated with clinical, surgical data, and 1-year death rate. RESULTS: VCS of patients with mitral IE and no peripheral embolism was higher than those with peripheral embolism (868 (25-1725) vs. 6 (0-95), p < 0.05). Patients with high calcified mitral IE (mitral VCS > 100; n = 15) had a lower rate of surgery (40.0% vs.78.9%; p = 0.03) and a higher 1-year-death risk (53.3% vs. 10.5%, p = 0.04; OR = 8.5 (2.75-16.40) than patients with low mitral VCS (n = 19). Patients with aortic IE and high aortic calcifications (aortic VCS > 100; n = 18) present more frequently atypical bacteria on blood cultures (33.3% vs. 4.8%; p = 0.03) than patients with low aortic VCS (n = 21). CONCLUSION: The amount of valvular calcifications on CT was associated with embolism risk, rate of surgery and 1-year risk of death in patients with mitral IE, and germ's type in aortic IE raising the question of their systematic quantification in native IE.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: In this study, we aimed to report clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with and without SARS-CoV-2 infection who were referred for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) during the peak of the pandemic in France. METHODS: We included all consecutive patients referred for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-STEMI (NSTEMI) during the first 3 weeks of April 2020 in 5 university hospitals (Paris, south, and north of France), all performing primary percutaneous coronary intervention. RESULTS: The study included 237 patients (67 ± 14 years old; 69% male), 116 (49%) with STEMI and 121 (51%) with NSTEMI. The prevalence of SARS-CoV-2-associated ACS was 11% (n = 26) and 11 patients had severe hypoxemia on presentation (mechanical ventilation or nasal oxygen > 6 L/min). Patients were comparable regarding medical history and risk factors, except a higher prevalence of diabetes mellitus in SARS-CoV-2 patients (53.8% vs 25.6%; P = 0.003). In SARS-CoV-2 patients, cardiac arrest on admission was more frequent (26.9% vs 6.6%; P < 0.001). The presence of significant coronary artery disease and culprit artery occlusion in SARS-CoV-2 patients respectively, was 92% and 69.4% for those with STEMI, and 50% and 15.5% for those with NSTEMI. Percutaneous coronary intervention was performed in the same percentage of STEMI (84.6%) and NSTEMI (84.8%) patients, regardless of SARS-CoV-2 infection, but no-reflow (19.2% vs 3.3%; P < 0.001) was greater in SARS-CoV-2 patients. In-hospital death occurred in 7 SARS-CoV-2 patients (5 from cardiac cause) and was higher compared with noninfected patients (26.9% vs 6.2%; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: In this registry, ACS in SARS-CoV-2 patients presented with high a percentage of cardiac arrest on admission, high incidence of no-reflow, and high in-hospital mortality.


CONTEXTE: Notre étude avait pour but d'établir les caractéristiques cliniques et les résultats de patients infectés ou non par le SRAS-CoV-2 qui ont été orientés en raison d'un syndrome coronarien aigu (SCA) pendant la phase aiguë de la pandémie en France. MÉTHODOLOGIE: Nous avons inclus dans l'étude tous les patients consécutifs qui ont présenté un infarctus du myocarde avec sus-décalage du segment ST (STEMI) ou sans sus-décalage du segment ST (NSTEMI) au cours des 3 premières semaines d'avril 2020 et qui ont été orientés vers 5 hôpitaux universitaires (situés à Paris, ainsi que dans le sud et le nord de la France), tous en mesure de réaliser des interventions co-ronariennes percutanées primaires. RÉSULTATS: L'étude comprenait 237 patients (âge : 67 ± 14 ans; proportion d'hommes : 69 %); 116 (49 %) présentaient un STEMI et 121 (51 %), un NSTEMI. La prévalence d'un SCA associé à une infection par le SRAS-CoV-2 s'établissait à 11 % (n = 26), et 11 patients étaient en hypoxémie grave (nécessitant une ventilation artificielle ou l'administration d'oxygène par voie nasale à un débit de plus de 6 l/min) à leur arrivée. Les patients présentaient des antécédents médicaux et des facteurs de risque comparables, à l'exception du fait que la prévalence du diabète était plus élevée chez les patients infectés par le SRAS-CoV-2 (53,8 % vs 25,6 %; p = 0,003). Ces derniers avaient plus souvent subi un arrêt cardiaque à leur admission (26,9 % vs 6,6 %; p < 0,001). Chez les patients infectés par le SRAS-CoV-2, une coronaropathie importante et une occlusion de l'artère coupable ont été observées chez respectivement 92 % et 69,4 % des patients présentant un STEMI, et chez 50 % et 15,5 % des patients présentant un NSTEMI. Une intervention coronarienne percutanée a été effectuée dans les mêmes proportions chez les patients subissant un STEMI (84,6 %) que chez ceux présentant un NSTEMI (84,8 %), sans égard à la présence ou à l'absence d'une infection par le SRAS-CoV-2, mais les cas de non-reperfusion (no-reflow) ont été plus fréquents chez les patients infectés que chez les autres patients (19,2 % et 3,3 %, respectivement; p < 0,001). Sept patients infectés par le SRAS-CoV-2 sont morts à l'hôpital (5 de cause cardiaque), ce qui représente un taux de mortalité plus élevé que chez les patients non infectés (26,9 % vs 6,2 %; p < 0,001). CONCLUSIONS: Dans le cadre de cette étude, le SCA survenu chez les patients infectés par le SRAS-CoV-2 était associé à un fort pourcentage d'arrêt cardiaque à l'admission, à une fréquence élevée de cas de non-reperfusion et à un taux élevé de mortalité hospitalière.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: We describe a frugal approach (focusing on needs, performance, and costs) to manage a massive influx of COVID-19 patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) using the Boussignac valve protected by a filter ("Filter Frugal CPAP", FF-CPAP) in and out the ICU. METHODS: (1) A bench study measured the impact of two filters with different mechanical properties on CPAP performances, and pressures were also measured in patients. (2) Non-ICU healthcare staff working in COVID-19 intermediate care units were trained with a video tutorial posted on a massive open online course. (3) A clinical study assessed the feasibility and safety of using FF-CPAP to maintain oxygenation and manage patients out of the ICU during a massive outbreak. RESULTS: Bench assessments showed that adding a filter did not affect the effective pressure delivered to the patient. The resistive load induced by the filter variably increased the simulated patient's work of breathing (6-34%) needed to sustain the tidal volume, depending on the filter's resistance, respiratory mechanics and basal inspiratory effort. In patients, FF-CPAP achieved pressures similar to those obtained on the bench. The massive training tool provided precious information on the use of Boussignac FF-CPAP on COVID-19 patients. Then 85 COVID-19 patients with ICU admission criteria over a 1-month period were studied upon FF-CPAP initiation for AHRF. FF-CPAP significantly decreased respiratory rate and increased SpO2. Thirty-six (43%) patients presented with respiratory indications for intubation prior to FF-CPAP initiation, and 13 (36%) of them improved without intubation. Overall, 31 patients (36%) improved with FF-CPAP alone and 17 patients (20%) did not require ICU admission. Patients with a respiratory rate > 32 breaths/min upon FF-CPAP initiation had a higher cumulative probability of intubation (p < 0.001 by log-rank test). CONCLUSION: Adding a filter to the Boussignac valve does not affect the delivered pressure but may variably increase the resistive load depending on the filter used. Clinical assessment suggests that FF-CPAP is a frugal solution to provide a ventilatory support and improve oxygenation to numerous patients suffering from AHRF in the context of a massive outbreak.

RESUMO

Randomized studies showed that Dobutamine and Levosimendan have similar impact on outcome but their combination has never been assessed in acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) with low cardiac output. This is a retrospective, single-center study that included 89 patients (61 ± 15 years) admitted for ADHF requiring inotropic support. The first group consisted of patients treated with dobutamine alone (n = 42). In the second group, levosimendan was administered on top of dobutamine, when the superior vena cava oxygen saturation (ScVO2) remained <60% after 3 days of dobutamine treatment (n = 47). The primary outcome was the occurrence of major cardiovascular events (MACE) at 6 months, defined as all cause death, heart transplantation or need for mechanical circulatory support. Baseline clinical characteristics were similar in both groups. At day-3, the ScVO2 target (>60%) was reached in 36% and 32% of patients in the dobutamine and dobutamine-levosimendan group, respectively. After adding levosimendan, 72% of the dobutamine-levosimendan-group reached the ScVO2 target value at dobutamine weaning. At six months, 42 (47%) patients experienced MACE (n = 29 for death). MACE was less frequent in the dobutamine-levosimendan (32%) than in the dobutamine-group (64%, p = 0.003). Independent variables associated with outcome were admission systolic blood pressure and dobutamine-levosimendan strategy (OR = 0.44 (0.23-0.84), p = 0.01). In conclusion, levosimendan added to dobutamine may improve the outcome of ADHF refractory to dobutamine alone.

RESUMO

A patient with severe, symptomatic functional mitral regurgitation was initially considered not suitable for MitraClip (Abbott Vascular, Abbott Park, Illinois) implantation because of non-coapting mitral leaflets. Repeated levosimendan infusions in combination with intensive diuresis induced sufficient valve coaptation, thus allowing MitraClip implantation to be performed. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.).

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Multimodality imaging is essential for infective endocarditis (IE) diagnosis. The aim of this work was to evaluate the agreement between transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and cardiac computed tomography (CT) findings in patients with surgically confirmed IE. METHODS: Sixty-eight patients (mean age 63 ± 2 years) with a definite diagnosis of left-side IE according to the modified European Society of Cardiology Duke criteria, on both native and prosthetic valves, underwent TEE and cardiac CT before surgery. The presence of valvular (vegetations, erosion) and paravalvular (abscess, pseudoaneurysm) IE-related lesions were compared between both modalities. Perioperative inspection was used as reference. RESULTS: TEE performed better than CT in detecting valvular IE-related lesions (TEE area under the curve [AUCTEE] = 0.881 vs AUCCT = 0.720, P = .02) and was similar to CT with respect to paravalvular IE-related lesions (AUCTEE = 0.830 vs AUCCT = 0.816, P = .835). The ability of TEE to detect vegetation was significantly better than that of CT (AUCTEE = 0.863 vs AUCCT = 0.693, P = .02). The maximum size of vegetations was moderately correlated between modalities (Spearman's rho = 0.575, P < .001). Computed tomography exhibited higher sensitivity than TEE for pseudoaneurysm detection (100% vs 66.7%, respectively) but was similar with respect to diagnostic accuracy (AUCTEE = 0.833 vs AUCCT = 0.984, P = .156). CONCLUSIONS: In patients with a definite diagnosis of left-side IE according to the modified European Society of Cardiology Duke criteria, TEE performed better than CT for the detection of valvular IE-related lesions and similar to CT for the detection of paravalvular IE-related lesions.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Bacterial infective endocarditis (IE) is rarely suspected in patients with a low C-reactive protein (CRP) concentration. AIMS: To address the incidence, characteristics and outcome of left-sided valvular IE with low CRP concentration. METHODS: This was a retrospective analysis of cases of IE discharged from our institution between January 2009 and May 2017. The 10% lowest CRP concentration (<20mg/L) was used to define low CRP concentration. Right-sided cardiac device-related IE, non-bacterial IE, sequelar IE and IE previously treated by antibiotics were excluded. RESULTS: Of the 469 patients, 13 (2.8%; median age 68 [61-76] years) had definite (n=8) or possible (n=5) left-sided valvular IE with CRP<20mg/L (median 9.3 [4.7-14.2] mg/L). The median white blood cell count was 6.3 (5.3-7.5) G/L. The main presentations were heart failure (n=7; 54%) and stroke (n=3; 23%). Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) showed vegetations (n=5) or isolated valvular regurgitation (n=4). Overall, eight patients (62%) had severe valvular lesions on transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE), and nine patients (69%) underwent cardiac surgery. All patients survived at 1-year follow-up. Bacterial pathogens were documented in eight patients (streptococci, coagulase-negative Staphylococcus, Corynebacteriumjeikeium, HACEK group, Coxiella burnetii, Bartonella henselae) using blood cultures, serology or valve culture and/or polymerase chain reaction analysis. CONCLUSIONS: Left-sided valvular IE with limited or no biological syndrome is rare, but is often associated with severe valvular and paravalvular lesions. TOE should be performed in presence of unexplained heart failure, new valvular regurgitation or cardioembolic stroke when TTE is insufficient to rule out endocarditis, even in patients with a low CRP concentration.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The inferior vena cava (IVC) has a complex three-dimensional (3D) shape, but measurements used to estimate central venous pressure (CVP) remain based on two-dimensional (2D) echocardiographic imaging. The aim of this study was to investigate the accuracy of IVC size and collapsibility index obtained by 3D echocardiography for assessing CVP in patients with cardiogenic shock. METHODS: Eighty consecutive echocardiographic examinations performed in 33 patients (mean age, 72 ± 15 years; mean left ventricular ejection fraction, 19 ± 10%) admitted for cardiogenic shock were prospectively included. Two-dimensional and 3D images of the IVC were acquired simultaneously with invasive measurement of CVP, both at rest and during a sniff test. IVC diameters, 3D IVC area, and IVC collapsibility index (IVCCI) were assessed. The eccentricity index was computed from 3D data as the ratio of maximum to minimum IVC diameter. A cutoff value of 10 mm Hg for CVP defined patients with euvolemic hemodynamic status. RESULTS: At rest, IVC diameter averaged 23 ± 7 mm by 2D imaging and 25 ± 8 × 19 ± 7 mm by 3D imaging. The IVC had an eccentric shape (eccentricity index = 1.3) that increased when CVP was ≤10 mm Hg and during the sniff test (P < .001). IVC measurements by 2D and 3D imaging were correlated with CVP. The best correlation was obtained with IVCCI derived from 2D diameters (R = -0.69) and 3D areas (R = -0.82). Using a cutoff value of 50% for IVCCI, 11 examinations were misclassified by 2D imaging and only one by 3D imaging. Inter- and intraobserver reproducibility for IVC area was 7 ± 6% and 5 ± 3%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with cardiogenic shock, IVCCI from area by 3D echocardiography is reproducible and accurate to evaluate CVP.
