RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: The tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion/systolic pulmonary artery pressure (TAPSE/SPAP) ratio is a noninvasive surrogate of right ventricular to pulmonary circulation that has prognostic implications in patients with heart failure (HF) or pulmonary hypertension. Our purpose was to evaluate the prognostic value of the TAPSE/SPAP ratio in patients with cardiac amyloidosis. METHODS: We used the database of the AMIGAL study, a prospective, observational registry of patients with cardiac amyloidosis recruited in 7 hospitals of the Autonomous Community of Galicia, Spain, from January 1, 2018 to October 31, 2022. We selected patients whose baseline TAPSE/SPAP ratio was calculated with transthoracic echocardiography. Long-term survival and survival free of HF hospitalization were assessed by means of 5 different multivariable Cox regression models. Median follow-up was 680 days. RESULTS: We studied 233 patients with cardiac amyloidosis, among whom 209 (89.7%) had transthyretin type. The baseline TAPSE/SPAP ratio correlated significantly with clinical outcomes. Depending on the multivariable model considered, the adjusted hazard ratios estimated per 0.1mm/mmHg increase of baseline TAPSE/SPAP ratio ranged from 0.76 to 0.84 for all-cause mortality. Similarly, the ratios for all-cause mortality of HF hospitalization ranged from 0.79 to 0.84. The addition of the baseline TAPSE/SPAP ratio to the predictive model of the United Kingdom National Amyloidosis Centre resulted in an increase in Harrell's c-statistic from 0.662 to 0.705 for all-cause mortality and from 0.668 to 0.707 for all-cause mortality or HF hospitalization. CONCLUSIONS: Reduced TAPSE/SPAP ratio is an independent adverse prognostic marker in patients with cardiac amyloidosis.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: Our aim was to assess the impact of prosthetic pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) in patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF) on changes in biventricular volumes and function and on adverse cardiac events. METHODS: Adults with rTOF were identified from the SACHER-registry. Data from serial cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, echocardiography, exercise capacity and n-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) were collected. The primary endpoint was right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF) as measured by cardiac magnetic resonance. Secondary endpoints were biventricular volumes, left ventricular ejection fraction, exercise capacity and NT-proBNP levels, and time to adverse cardiac outcomes (atrial and ventricular arrhythmia, endocarditis). Associations between previous PVR and longitudinal changes in functional outcomes and time to adverse cardiac outcomes were analyzed using linear mixed-effects models and Cox proportional hazards models, respectively. RESULTS: A total of 308 patients (153 with and 155 without PVR) with 887 study visits were analyzed. Previous PVR was not significantly associated with changes in RVEF (CE, -1.33; 95%CI, -5.87 to 3.21; P=.566). Previous PVR was associated with lower right ventricular end-diastolic volume but had no significant effect on left ventricular ejection fraction, exercise capacity, or NT-proBNP-levels. Previous PVR was associated with an increased hazard of atrial arrhythmias (HR, 2.09; 95%CI, 1.17-3.72; P=.012) and infective endocarditis (HR, 12.72; 95%CI, 4.69-34.49; P<.0001) but not with an increased hazard of sustained ventricular arrhythmias (HR, 0.64; 95%CI, 0.18-2.27; P=.490). CONCLUSIONS: Previous PVR was not significantly associated with changes in RVEF but was associated with an increased risk of atrial arrhythmias and infective endocarditis.

RESUMO

Introducción y objetivos El pronóstico de los pacientes con cardiopatía congénita e hipertensión arterial pulmonar (HTP) está estrechamente relacionado con la función del ventrículo derecho (VD). Los parámetros de ecocardiografía bidimensional como la deformación miocárdica o el índice de remodelado VD telesistólico (IRVDTS) han surgido para cuantificar la función del VD. Métodos Se estudió de forma prospectiva a 30 paciente de edad 48± 12 años con shunt pretricuspídeo e HTP para investigar la precisión de diversos parámetros ecocardiográficos de estudio de la función del VD (extrusión sistólica del anillo tricúspide, velocidad sistólica pico del anillo tricúspide, ratio de duración sistodiastólica del VD, área de la aurícula derecha, cambio de área fraccional del ventrículo derecho, deformación miocárdica global del ventrículo derecho e IRVDTS) respecto a la fracción de eyección del ventrículo derecho medida por resonancia cardiaca. Resultados En 13 pacientes (43,3%) se observó una fracción de eyección del VD <45%. La deformación longitudinal global del VD (ρ [coeficiente de correlación de Spearman] = −0,75, p=0,001; R2=0,58, p=0,001), área de la aurícula derecha (ρ=−0,74, p <0,0001; R2=0,56, p <0,0001); IRVDTS (ρ=−0,64, p < 0,0001; R2=0,47, p <0,0001), ratio de duración sistodiastólica (ρ=−0,62, p=0,0004; R2=0,47, p <0,0001) y cambio de área fraccional del VD (ρ=0,48, p=0,01; R2=0,37, p <0,0001) se correlacionaron con la fracción de eyección del VD. La deformación longitudinal global del VD, IRVDTS y área de la aurícula derecha fueron predictores de fracción de eyección <45% con la mayor área bajo la curva (0,88; IC95%, 0,71-1,00; 0,88; IC95%, 0,76-1,00 y 0,89; IC95%, 0,77-1,00, respectivamente). Una deformación longitudinal global del VD> −16%, IRVDTS ≥ 1,7 y un área de la aurícula derecha ≥ 22 cm2 predijeron una fracción de eyección del VD <45% con una sensibilidad y especificidad del 87,5 y 85,7%; 76,9 y 88,3%; 92,3 y 82,4%, respectivamente (AU)


Introduction and objectives Outcome in patients with congenital heart diseases and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is closely related to right ventricular (RV) function. Two-dimensional echocardiographic parameters, such as strain imaging or RV end-systolic remodeling index (RVESRI) have emerged to quantify RV function. Methods We prospectively studied 30 patients aged 48±12 years with pretricuspid shunt and PAH and investigated the accuracy of multiple echocardiographic parameters of RV function (tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion, tricuspid annular peak systolic velocity, RV systolic-to-diastolic duration ratio, right atrial area, RV fractional area change, RV global longitudinal strain and RVESRI) to RV ejection fraction measured by cardiac magnetic resonance. Results RV ejection fraction <45% was observed in 13 patients (43.3%). RV global longitudinal strain (ρ [Spearman's correlation coefficient]=−0.75; P=.001; R2=0.58; P=.001), right atrium area (ρ=−0.74; P <.0001; R2=0.56; P <.0001), RVESRI (ρ=−0.64; P <.0001; R2=0.47; P <.0001), systolic-to-diastolic duration ratio (ρ=−0.62; P=.0004; R2=0.47; P <.0001) and RV fractional area change (ρ=0.48; P=.01; R2=0.37; P <.0001) were correlated with RV ejection fraction. RV global longitudinal strain, RVESRI and right atrium area predicted RV ejection fraction <45% with the greatest area under curve (0.88; 95%CI, 0.71-1.00; 0.88; 95%CI, 0.76-1.00, and 0.89; 95%CI, 0.77-1.00, respectively). RV global longitudinal strain >−16%, RVESRI ≥ 1.7 and right atrial area ≥ 22 cm2 predicted RV ejection fraction <45% with a sensitivity and specificity of 87.5% and 85.7%; 76.9% and 88.3%; 92.3% and 82.4%, respectively. Conclusions RVESRI, right atrial area and RV global longitudinal strain are strong markers of RV dysfunction in patients with pretricuspid shunt and PAH (AU)

RESUMO

Abstract Right ventricular longitudinal strain (RVLS) is frequently used as a measure of right ventricular systolic function. Abnormal RV strain is associated with poor prognosis in patients with pulmonary hyper tension (PH); however, the measure is not always easy to obtain in patients with poor apical acoustic windows. Objective: This study aims to analyze the RVLS and determine if there is a difference when measured from the apical and subcostal views. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we analyzed 22 adult outpatients (≥ 18 years old), 81% female, mean age 49.9 ± 17.3 years, with a diagnosis of PH using right heart catheterization, followed from January 2016 to January 2020. Results: RVLS measured in the RV free wall from the apical views was -15% (-19% to -10%) and subcostal views -14.5% (-18% to -11%) were highly correlated (Person's r = 0.969, p < 0.0001). Segment by segment analysis did not show significant differences either: basal four-chamber vs. sub costal view was -16.5% (-21% to -11%) vs. -15.5% (-20% to -11%), p = 0.99, mid four-chamber view vs. subcotal view was -16.5% (-21% to -12%) vs. -16.5% (-20% to -11%), p = 0.87, apical four-chamber view vs. subcostal view was -12% (-18% to -8%) vs. -13.5% (-19% to -10%), p = 0.93. Conclusion: Subcostal RVLS free wall is a feasible and accurate alternative to conventional RVLS free wall from the apical view in patients with pulmonary hypertension and could be useful in patients with poor acoustic apical four-chamber windows.


Resumen El strain longitudinal del ventrículo derecho (SLVD) permite medir la función sistólica del ventrículo derecho (VD). La disminución del strain (deformación) del VD se asocia con mal pronóstico en pacientes con hipertensión pulmonar (HP), pero no siempre es fácil de obtener en pacientes con mala ventana acústica apical. Objetivo: Este estudio tiene como objetivo analizar el SLVD y determinar si las vistas apical y subcostal son comparables. Métodos: En este estudio transversal, se incluyeron 22 pacientes adultos ambulatorios (≥18 años), 81% mujeres, edad promedio 49.9 ± 17.3 años, con diagnóstico de HP mediante cateterismo cardíaco derecho, seguidos desde enero de 2016 hasta enero de 2020. Se midió la deformación de la pared libre del ventrículo derecho desde las vistas de cuatro cámaras apical y cuatro cámaras subcostal. Resultados: El SLVD medido en la pared libre del VD desde la vista apical fue -15% (-19% a -10%) vs. -14.5% (-18% a -11%) cuando se midió desde la vista subcostal (p = 0,99). El análisis segmento por s egmento tampoco mostró diferencias significativas: el segmento basal apical vs. subcostal fue -16.5% (-21% a -11%) vs. -15.5% (-20% a -11%), p = 0.99, el segmento medio apical vs. la vista subcotal fue -16.5% (-21% a -12%) vs. a -16.5% (-20% a -11%), p = 0.87, el segmento apical vs. la vista subcostal fue -12% (-18% a -8%) frente a -13.5% (-19% a -10%), p = 0.93. Conclusión: En pacientes con HP, el SLVD obtenido en la pared libre subcostal es una alternativa útil en los casos con ventana acústica apical subóptima.

RESUMO

Resumen Objetivo: Evaluar la función del ventrículo derecho (VD) e izquierdo (VI) en la hipertensión pulmonar (HP) mediante resonancia magnética cardíaca (RMC). Material y métodos: En pacientes con (grupo HP; n = 9) y sin (grupo control; n = 9) HP se evaluó volumen telediastólico (VTD) y telesistólico (VTS) y fracción de eyección (FE) de ventrículo derecho (VD) e izquierdo (VI), área de aurícula derecha (AD) e izquierda y diámetro de arteria pulmonar (AP). Resultados: En HP, el VD presentó mayor VTD y VTS y menor FE (HP 52 ± 5% vs. control 64 ± 2%; p < 0,05). Solo en HP se observó movimiento anormal del tabique interventricular y realce tardío en los puntos de inserción del VD en VI. En HP aumentó el área de AD y el diámetro de AP. En VD, solo en HP, la FE se correlacionó negativamente con VTD (Pearson r: –0,8290; p < 0,01) y VTS (Pearson r: –0,7869; p < 0,05). Conclusiones: La evaluación de pacientes con HP mediante RMC demuestra alteraciones fisiológicas y anatómicas de las cavidades derechas con disminución de la FE del VD que también afecta la interrelación VD/VI. Se recalca la importancia de una evaluación temprana y secuencial del VD con RMC para valorar la mejor estrategia terapéutica para cada caso en particular.


Abstract Objective: To evaluate the function of the right ventricle (RV) and left ventricle (LV) in pulmonary hypertension (PH) through cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR). Material and method: In patients with (PH group; n = 9) and without PH (control group; n = 9), end-diastolic volume (EDV) and end-systolic volume (ESV) and ejection fraction (EF) of right (RV) and left (LV) ventricle, area of the right (RA) and left (LA) atrium and diameter of the pulmonary artery (PA) were evaluated. Results: In PH, the RV increased EDV and ESV and decreased EF (PH: 52 ± 5% vs. control: 64 ± 2%; p < 0.05). Abnormal movement of the interventricular septum and late enhancement in the insertion points of the RV in the LV were only observed in HP. HP increased the area of RA and the diameter of PA. In LV, only in HP, EF was negatively correlated with EDV (Pearson r: –0.8290; p < 0.01) and ESV (Pearson r: –0.7869; p < 0.05). Conclusions: CMR evaluation of patients with PH demonstrates physiological and anatomical alterations of the right cavities with decreased EF in RV that also affects the RV/LV interrelationship. The importance of an early and sequential evaluation of the RV with CMR is emphasized to assess the best therapeutic strategy for each particular case.

CONCLUSIONS: RVESRI, right atrial area and RV global longitudinal strain are strong markers of RV dysfunction in patients with pretricuspid shunt and PAH.

RESUMO

The study aims to conduct a review of right ventricle, measured by echocardiography or magnetic resonance imaging, in athletes with high dynamic component and moderate static, the limit of the physiological adaptation. A search was carried out in the Medline database up to the end of 2017. This study showed that the mean values for the different measurements of the right ventricle in athletes are significantly greater than that of sedentary controls. In two of the 12 studies that analyzed mean diameter of the right ventricle in apical 4C, including 1477 endurance athletes and 498 controls, with high heterogeneity. Endurance athletes presented significantly higher longitudinal diameter of the RV in apical absolutes scores compared to control. The end diastolic volume and end systolic volume measured by magnetic resonance imaging, showed a significant standardized mean difference favoring athletes with a moderate heterogeneity.(AU)

RESUMO

La hipertensión arterial pulmonar (HAP) es una enfermedad rara caracterizada por un remodelado adverso del árbol arterial que conlleva un aumento de las resistencias vasculares con el subsecuente incremento de la poscarga del ventrículo derecho y el desarrollo, finalmente, de insuficiencia cardiaca. El curso de la enfermedad conlleva un mal pronóstico, al que se asocia el retraso en el diagnóstico e inicio de tratamiento motivado por la clínica inespecífica y el desconocimiento de la entidad. Las recomendaciones más recientes se centran en optimizar el diagnóstico precoz diferencial frente a otras causas de hipertensión pulmonar, con el fin de iniciar un tratamiento adecuado utilizando como referencia la estimación de riesgo de mortalidad del paciente. En los últimos años, con la mejora en el proceso diagnóstico, la aparición de nuevos tratamientos específicos y la creación de unidades de referencia especializadas en esta enfermedad, se ha conseguido mejorar el pronóstico y la calidad de vida de los pacientes con HAP. (AU)


Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare disease characterized by adverse remodeling of the arterial tree leading to increased vascular resistance with subsequent increase in right ventricular afterload and eventual development of heart failure. The nonspecific clinical manifestations and lack of knowledge of pathology lead to a poor prognosis associated with delay in diagnosis and initiation of treatment. The most recent recommendations focus on optimizing the early differential diagnosis with other causes of pulmonary hypertension to initiate appropriate treatment based on the mortality risk estimation. In the last years, with the improvement in the diagnostic process, the emergence of new specific treatments, and the creation of specialized referral units for this pathology, the prognosis, and quality of life of patients with PAH have improved significantly.

RESUMO

Objectives: The acute adjustments on the contractile function and the intracellular calcium (Ca2+) handling in the cardiomyocytes of the right ventricle (RV) after an acute aerobic exercise session are not known. Our aim was to investigate the acute responses of the contractile function and the intracellular Ca2+ handling in isolated RV cardiomyocytes after a swimming exercise session.Methods: Ten-week-old female Wistar rats were randomly allocated into two groups: control (C; n = 5) and exercise (Ex; n = 7). It was performed a swimming exercise session for 30 minutes. with an overload of 4% relative to the body weight attached to the tail. The rats were sacrificed after the exercise session for the analysis of the RV contractile function parameters and the intracellular Ca2+ handling by the isolated cardiomyocyte technique.Results: Body and heart weights, as well as sarcomere length were similar between the groups. Also, it was not observed differences between the groups for RV cardiomyocyte contractile parameters. However, the systolic and diastolic intracellular Ca2+ concentration was significantly lower in the Ex group compared to C with maintenance of Ca2+ amplitude.Conclusion: An acute swimming aerobic exercise session promotes cardiomyocyte contractility maintenance even with systolic and diastolic intracellular Ca2+ concentration reduced in the RV cardiomyocytes, reflecting an improvement in the intracellular Ca2+ handling.(AU)


Objetivos: se desconocen los ajustes agudos de la función contráctil y el manejo del calcio (Ca2+) intracelular en los cardiomiocitos del ventrículo derecho (VD) tras una sesión de ejercicio aeróbico agudo. Nuestro objetivo fue investigar las respuestas agudas de la función contráctil y el manejo del Ca2+ intracelular en cardiomiocitos aislados del VD después de una sesión de ejercicio de natación.Métodos: se asignaron al azar ratas Wistar hembra de diez semanas de edad en dos grupos: control (C; n = 5) y ejercicio (Ex; n = 7). Se realizó una sesión de ejercicios de natación durante 30 minutos con una sobrecarga del 4% con respecto al peso corporal adherido a la cola. Las ratas fueron sacrificadas después de la sesión de ejercicio para el análisis de los parámetros de la función contráctil del VD y el manejo del Ca2+ intracelular mediante la técnica de cardiomiocitos aislados.Resultados: los pesos corporales y cardíacos, así como la longitud del sarcómero, fueron similares entre los grupos. Además, no se observaron diferencias entre los grupos para los parámetros contráctiles de los cardiomiocitos del VD. Sin embargo, la concentración de Ca2+ intracelular sistólica y diastólica fue significativamente menor en el grupo Ex en comparación con C con el mantenimiento de la amplitud de Ca2+.Conclusión: Una sesión de ejercicio aeróbico de natación aguda promueve el mantenimiento de la contractilidad de los cardiomiocitos incluso con una concentración de Ca2+ intracelular sistólica y diastólica reducida en los cardiomiocitos del VD, lo que refleja una mejora en el manejo del Ca2+ intracelular.(AU)


Objetivo: os ajustes agudos na função contrátil e no transiente do cálcio (Ca2+) intracelular nos cardiomiócitos do ventrículo direito (VD) após uma sessão aguda de exercício aeróbio não são conhecidos. Desta forma objetivo foi investigar as respostas agudas da função contrátil e do no transiente Ca2+ intracelular em cardiomiócitos do VD isolados após uma sessão de exercício de natação.Métodos: Ratas Wistar com dez semanas de idade foram alocadas aleatoriamente em dois grupos: controle (C; n = 5) e exercício (Ex; n = 7). Foi realizada uma sessão de exercícios de natação por 30 minutos com uma sobrecarga de 4% em relação ao peso corporal preso à cauda. Os ratos foram sacrificados após a sessão de exercícios para análise dos parâmetros da função contrátil do VD e do transiente Ca2+ intracelular pela técnica de cardiomiócitos isolados.Resultados: Os pesos corporais e cardíacos, bem como o comprimento do sarcômero foram semelhantes entre os grupos. Além disso, não foram observadas diferenças entre os grupos para os parâmetros contráteis dos cardiomiócitos do VD. No entanto, a concentração de Ca2+ intracelular sistólica e diastólica foi significativamente menor no grupo Ex em comparação com C com manutenção da amplitude de Ca2+. Conclusão: Uma sessão aguda de exercício aeróbio de natação promove a manutenção da contratilidade dos cardiomiócitos mesmo com a concentração intracelular de Ca2+ sistólica e diastólica reduzida nos cardiomiócitos do VD, refletindo uma melhora no manuseio do Ca2+ intracelular.(AU)

RESUMO

Abstract Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) produces a significant burden to severely ill patients affected by acute respiratory failure. The aim of this study was to describe echocardiographic findings in a series of mechanically ventilated patients with moderate and severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to COVID-19. This was a single center, descriptive and cros s-sectional study of prospectively collected data. Patients had severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and moderate or severe ARDS. Initial echocardiogram was performed within 7 days of intensive care unit admission and every 15 days until mechanical ventilation ended, 28 days or death. Time spent by the physician for each study was measured. Multiple echographic measurements were acquired; 33 patients were analyzed. Total number of echocardiograms performed was 76. The median imaging time required to complete a standard study was 13 [10-15] minutes. Chronic structural abnormalities were present in 16 patients (48%), being LV hypertrophy the main finding in 11 patients (33%). The most frequent acute or dynamic finding was RV enlargement (43%) when considering all echocardiograms performed from admission to day 28 of follow-up. Other findings were: pulmonary hypertension (15%), new or dynamic left ventricle (LV) regional wall motion abnormalities (15%), new or dynamic LV global contractility deterioration (6%) and hypercontractility (12%).


Resumen La enfermedad por coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) produce una carga significativa para los pacientes gravemente enfermos afectados por insuficiencia respiratoria aguda. El objetivo de este estudio fue describir los hallazgos ecocardiográficos en una serie de pacientes ventilados mecánicamente con síndrome de dificultad respiratoria aguda (SDRA) moderado y grave debido a COVID-19. Se trata de un estudio unicéntrico, descriptivo y de corte transversal de datos recopilados en forma prospectiva. Los pacientes tenían una infección por el coronavirus SARS-Cov-2 y SDRA moderado o grave. El ecocardiogra ma inicial se realizó dentro de los 7 días del ingreso en la unidad de cuidados intensivos y luego cada 15 días hasta finalizar la ventilación mecánica, 28 días o fallecimiento. Se midió el tiempo empleado por el operador en cada estudio. Se adquirieron múltiples medidas ecográficas. Se analizaron 33 pacientes. El número total de ecocardiogramas realizados fue de 76. El tiempo necesario (mediana [RIQ]) para la obtención de las imágenes de un estudio estándar fue de 13 [10-15] minutos. Las anomalías estructurales crónicas estuvieron presentes en 16 pacientes (48%), siendo la hipertrofia ventricular izquierda la principal (11 pacientes, 33%). El hallazgo agudo o dinámico más frecuente fue el agrandamiento del ventrículo derecho (VD) (43%) al considerar todos los ecocardiogramas realizados desde el ingreso hasta el día 28 de seguimiento. Otros hallazgos fueron: hipertensión pulmonar (15%), anomalías del movimiento de la pared regional del VI nuevas o dinámicas (15%), deterioro de la contractilidad global del ventrículo izquierdo, nuevo o dinámico (6%), e hipercontractilidad (12%).

RESUMO

Abstract Objective: Right ventricle (RV) function plays an important role during fetal and neonatal transitional circulation. Despite the published echocardiography guidelines in children including neonates, there is scare evidence on RV assessment using echocardiography in Mexican neonates. This study was aimed at assessing RV function and anatomical measures in healthy term newborns and defines normal values in this cohort of patients. Methods: A prospective study involving healthy term newborns in a single center were enrolled in the study to assess RV, all patients were recruited within 24-72 h after birth. The right ventricular assessment was performed as per American Society of Echocardiography's guidelines. Results: Seventy healthy term newborns with a median gestational age of 38 (38.5 ± 2.7) weeks had RV function assessment and anatomical structures measures with a predefined ten echocardiographic parameters protocol. The mean values for: tricuspid valve diameter was 13 mm ± 1.8, basal diameter of the RV 16.7 mm ± 2, RV length 27.8 mm ± 2.2, mid cavity diameter 14.3 mm ± 1.7, RV-anteroinferior basal diameter 21.5 mm ± 2.5, tricuspid regurgitation gradient 13.3 mmHg ± 5.9, tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion 8.7 mm, right ventricular fractional area change (RVFAC) 4 chamber (%) 40.6 ± 7.5, tricuspid E/A 0.7 ± 0.5, myocardial velocities (cm/s) E´ 8 ± 2.7, A´ 9.6 ± 2.4, S´ 6.9 ± 1.2, myocardial performance index 0.5 ± 0.1, RVFAC 3 chamber (%) 37.8 ± 15.8, and pulmonary acceleration time mean value 58.8 ± 14.9. Flattening of interventricular septum was seen in 13% infants. Conclusions: This study describes echocardiographic parameters for anatomical structures and assessment of RV function in healthy term newborns during transitional circulation. We reported novel anatomical measures of the RV; this information can provide normal reference range values and be referenced while assessing RV function in normal and sick newborns during transitional circulation.

RESUMO

A pesar de que el SARS-CoV-2 afecta principalmente al aparato respiratorio, se está evidenciando cada vez más la afectación de otros sistemas. Uno de los que más relevancia ha tomado es el cardiovascular tanto por daño miocárdico agudo (DMA) como por complicaciones tromboembólicas debidas al estado de hipercoagulabilidad que produce la infección. Este caso clínico presenta la coexistencia de complicaciones cardiovasculares en un paciente joven, sin enfermedades previas e infección reciente por COVID-19. Así mismo, plantea la necesidad de realizar cribado de complicaciones cardiovasculares mediante técnicas de imagen por el aumento en su incidencia. (AU)


Although SARS-CoV-2 mainly affects the respiratory system, its impact on other systems is becoming increasingly evident. Cardiovascular involvement is highly significant in the form of acute myocardial damage (AMD) and thromboembolic complications due to the hypercoagulable state produced by this infection. This clinical case presents the coexistence of several cardiovascular complications in a young patient, with no previous disease and recent COVID-19 infection. It also highlights the need for screening for cardiovascular complications by imaging techniques due to the increase in their incidence. (AU)

RESUMO

Resumen La hipertensión arterial pulmonar (HAP) requiere procesos estructurados de diagnóstico y estratificación de riesgo, siendo la función del ventrículo derecho (VD) un marcador pronóstico central. Los principales objetivos terapéuticos en la HAP son mejorar y/o intentar revertir la disfunción del VD y mantener condición de bajo riesgo. Actualmente existen múltiples fármacos con diferentes mecanismos de acción cuya combinación en doble o triple terapia ha mostrado mejores resultados que la monoterapia. Evidencia actual demuestra la importancia de incorporar tempranamente prostanoides parenterales al esquema, mejorando la funcionalidad del VD y la supervivencia. En esta revisión se refleja el papel de la función del VD en el diagnós tico, pronóstico y seguimiento de la HAP. Se recomienda la evaluación sistemática y estandarizada del VD, así como el inicio temprano de tratamiento combinado en riesgo intermedio-alto para obtener las metas de alcanzar y mantener un riesgo bajo y/o evitar la progresión de la HAP.


Abstract Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) requires structured processes of diagnosis and risk stratifica tion, being the function of the right ventricle (RV) a hallmark prognosis determinant. The main therapeutic goals in PAH are to improve and try to revert RV dysfunction and maintaining a low risk. Currently, there are multiple treatments with different mechanisms of action, the combination of which in double or triple therapy has shown improved results compared to monotherapy. Recent clinical evidence shows the importance of early incorpora tion of parenteral prostanoids to the scheme, improving RV function and survival. In this review, we discuss the role of the RV function in the diagnosis, prognosis, and follow-up of PAH. We recommend the systematic and standardised evaluation of the RV as well as the early initiation of combined treatment in cases of intermediate-high risk to try to reach and keep the patient with PAH at a low risk and / or avoid the progression of PAH.

RESUMO

Resumen El túnel aorto-ventricular derecho es una anomalía congénita que consiste en un canal que conecta la aorta ascendente a la cavidad del ventrículo derecho. El diagnóstico se corrobora, en la mayoría de los casos, por ecocardiografía. El cierre quirúrgico se considera el tratamiento de elección y solo se han reportado dos casos previos en los que se ha logrado el cierre mediante intervencionismo. Se presenta el caso de una lactante con diagnóstico de túnel aorto-ventricular derecho, tratada por intervención percutánea con dispositivo de cierre percutáneo, que tuvo buena evolución clínica. La paciente, además, presentó un ductus permeable, el cual fue tratado en una segunda oportunidad por intervencionismo. La factibilidad de la técnica de cierre por procedimiento percutáneo y su baja tasa de complicaciones en comparación con el cierre por cirugía abierta pueden hacer de este el procedimiento de elección en la mayoría de los casos para esta infrecuente condición.


Abstract The aorto-right ventricular tunnel is a congenital anomaly that consists of a channel that connects the ascending aorta to the right ventricular cavity. The diagnosis is usually made by transthoracic echocardiography. Surgical closure is usually considered the treatment of choice and only two previous cases have been reported in which closure has been achieved by percutaneous intervention. We report a case of an infant with a diagnosis of aorto-right ventricular tunnel treated using a percutaneous device with good clinical evolution. The patient had also a patent ductus which was later treated by interventionism. The feasibility of the technique and its low rate of complications compared to the closure by open surgery can make it the procedure of choice in most cases for this rare condition.

RESUMO

Resumen En el siguiente reporte se expone un caso complejo en el que coexisten malformaciones cardiacas congénitas de presentación atípica con un doble tracto de salida del ventrículo derecho, en un paciente con múltiples anomalías menores en la exploración física y un cariotipo normal. La atipia de cada una de estas y su coexistencia hacen pensar en posibles alteraciones genéticas que aún son desconocidas. Lo anterior supone un reto terapéutico con el fin de restaurar una fisiología cardiaca compatible con la vida, lo cual se logra en este caso mediante un cerclaje exitoso de la arteria pulmonar.


Abstract The following report presents a complex case in which congenital cardiac malformations of atypical presentation coexist with a double outlet right ventricle, in a patient with multiple minor abnormalities on the physical examination and a normal karyotype. The atypia of these and their coexistence suggest possible genetic alterations that are still unknown. Therefore, a therapeutic challenge in order to restore a cardiac physiology compatible with life is proposed, which is achieved in this case through a successful banding of the pulmonary artery.
