Abstract INTRODUCTION: Concern regarding the cardiotoxicity of antimalarials has been renewed because of their potential to cause QT/QTc interval prolongation related to torsade de pointes (TdP). Artemisinin-piperaquine (AP) is considered an effective artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT) for mal...

A prevenção cardiovascular é tema fundamental, pois as doenças cardiovasculares que têm como substrato a aterosclerose, têm grande impacto na morbidade e mortalidade cardiovascular no Brasil e no mundo. Estima-se que 80% dos casos de doença arterial co-ronariana resultam da presença isolada ou em...
ABSTRACT The left ventricular noncompaction is a congenital cardiomyopathy characterized by the presence of abnormal trabeculations in the left ventricle. The present study describes the case of a 14-year-old female Para athlete, who plays goalball. She was asymptomatic, with history of congenital nystag...
Las enfermedades cardiovasculares son la principal causa de muerte en Chile. Los Síndromes Coronarios Agudos (SCA), obligan a los sistemas de salud a destinar recursos de elevado costo para su diagnóstico. Procedimientos como el electrocardiograma (ECG) y la cinecoronariografía (CCG) orientan en el di...

Abstract Cardiorenal syndrome type 1 (CRS 1) occurs when acute heart failure leads to acute kidney injury. There are several etiologies of CRS 1, including Chagas disease. Here, we present the first case report of CRS 1 in a patient with acute Chagas disease. Electrocardiography, transthoracic echocardio...
Abstract Objective: The effects of energy source on the maintenance of sinus rhythm and the contribution of demographic characteristics to the case selection in patients submitted to ablation performed concurrently with mitral valve surgery were analyzed. Methods: Cryothermal (n=42; 43.8%) and radiofre...

Resumen Introducción y objetivos . La activación eléctrica artificial del corazón en pacientes con arcapasos implantados en el ventrículo derecho es causante de disincronía ventricular. Synchromax® es un monitor de electrocardiografía que com prueba de manera no invasiva e instantánea el grado ...
Background: Percutaneous left atrial appendage (LAA) occlusion may be an alternative therapy for atrial fibrillation (AF) patients with contraindication for anti-coagulation therapy. However, the influence of LAA occlusion on left atrial (LA) performance has not been studied. Objective: Our aim was t...
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia is a classic form of chronic myocardial disease with a broad phenotypical spectrum. We report an atypical case of a patient with biventricular arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy. Although the current diagnosis criteria are the most widely accepted ones, they focus s...
