This project aims to promote the early detection of subclinical rheumatic carditis by echocardiography using the innovative criteria proposed by the World Heart Federation in 2012, joining echocardiographic, clinical, phonocardiography and immunological findings.The prevalence of this neglected disease will be estimated, filling a gap in our literature. This project has socioeconomic impo…
Aortic Stenosis is one of the most common valvular heart disease in adulthood. It corresponds to over 4.5% of the elderly, resulting in a high number of older people who needs cardiac surgery. One of the highest challenges of clinical practice is how to recognize the cases which will most benefit from aortic valve replacement. The challenge seems to be even higher in those who present sma…
With the aging of the population, degenerative aortic valve stenosis has become increasingly common, resulting in an increase in valve prosthetic implants. However, some patients continued to have an increasing transvalvular gradient in the immediate postoperative period. This elevation may be a consequence of a Prosthesis-patient mismatch (PPM), which occurs when the valve's effective re…
Pericardial effusion postpericardiotomy is a common complication and could result in different symptoms in the postoperative period, such as pleuritic chest pain and supraventricular arrhythmias. In some patients, pericardial effusion could restrict cardiac filling and may cause serious complications such as cardiac tamponade. In some institutions, pericardial effusion postpericardiotomy …
Aortic valve disease is increasing with the aging of the world population. The increase in the number of aortic valvopathy cases is traditionally related to the arteriosclerotic disease. However, recent studies have observed a great prevalence of congenital aortic diseases, moreover in developed nations2. Therefore, it is possible the traditional relation between degenerative etiology and…
