Although transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is safe and effective, mortality and bleeding events post procedure are important. The present study investigated the changes in hematologic parameters to evaluate whether they predict mortality or major bleeding. We enrolled 248 consecutive patients (44.8% male; mean age 79.0 ± 6.4 years) undergoing TAVR. In addition to demographic and clinical examination, blood parameters were recorded before TAVR, at discharge, 1 month and 1 year. Hemoglobin levels before TAVR 12.1 ± 1.8 g/dL, 10.8 ± 1.7 g/dL at discharge, 11.7 ± 1.7 g/dL at first month, 11.8 ± 1.4 g/dL at first year (Hemoglobin values compared with pre-TAVR, P <.001, P =.019, P =.047, respectively). Mean platelet volume (MPV) before TAVR 8.72 ± 1.71 fL, 8.16 ± 1.46 fL at discharge, 8.09 ± 1.44 fL at first month, 7.94 ± 1.18 fL at first year (MPV values compared with pre-TAVR, P <.001, P <.001, P <.001, respectively). Other hematologic parameters were also evaluated. Hemoglobin, platelet count, MPV, and red cell distribution width before the procedure, at discharge, and at the first year did not predict mortality and major bleeding in receiver operating characteristic analysis. After multivariate Cox regression analysis, hematologic parameters were not independent predictors of in-hospital mortality, major bleeding, and death at 1 year after TAVR. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: The aim of this study was to assess the impact of aortic angulation (AA) on periprocedural and in-hospital complications as well as mortality of patients undergoing Evolut™ R valve implantation. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 264 patients who underwent transfemoral-approach transcatheter aortic valve replacement with self-expandable valve at our hospital between August 2015 and August 2022. These patients underwent multislice computer tomography scans to evaluate AA. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement endpoints, device success, and clinical events were assessed according to the definitions provided by the Valve Academic Research Consortium-3. Cumulative events included paravalvular leak, permanent pacemaker implantation, new-onset stroke, and in-hospital mortality. Patients were divided into two groups, AA ≤ 48° and AA > 48°, based on the mean AA measurement (48.3±8.8) on multislice computer tomography. Results: Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to identify predictors of cumulative events, utilizing variables with a P-value < 0.2 obtained from univariable logistic regression analysis, including AA, age, hypertension, chronic renal failure, and heart failure. AA (odds ratio [OR]: 1.73, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.89-3.38, P=0.104), age (OR: 1.04, 95% CI: 0.99-1.10, P=0.099), hypertension (OR: 1.66, 95% CI: 0.82-3.33, P=0.155), chronic renal failure (OR: 1.82, 95% CI: 0.92-3.61, P=0.084), and heart failure (OR: 0.57, 95% CI: 0.27-1.21, P=0.145) were not found to be significantly associated with cumulative events in the multivariable logistic regression analysis. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that increased AA does not have a significant impact on intraprocedural and periprocedural complications of patients with new generation self-expandable valves implanted.

Objective: The main purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the in-hospital, 1-month and 1-year post-procedure outcomes of patients treated with Evolut-R 34 mm and Evolut-R 23/26/29 mm devices. Additionally, the study aimed to identify factors that could predict the occurrence of = mild paravalvular leaks (PVL). Methods: Between April 2015 and May 2022, 269 consecutive patients who underwent transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) with Evolut-R 34 mm (n = 66, 24.5%) and Evolut-R 23/26/29 mm (n = 203, 75.5%) devices in a single center were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Patients in the Evolut-R 34 mm group had a lower female sex ratio (16.7% vs. 66.5%, P < .001, respectively), ejection fraction (50.7 ± 10.1% vs. 54.5 ± 9.3%, P = .016, respectively), and mean aortic gradient (7.4 ± 3.3 vs. 9.2 ± 5.0, P = .026, respectively) compared to the Evolut-R 23/26/29 mm group. The groups did not exhibit any statistically significant distinctions with regard to technical success, the need for a permanent pacemaker, occurrences of stroke, major vascular complications, PVL, major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, or mortality. Peak velocity was confirmed as a significant predictor of =mild PVL in both patient groups in the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. In logistic regression analysis; In patients with Evolut-R 34 mm valve, pre-TAVI aortic valve peak velocity (odds ratio (OR) = 23.202; P = .019) and calcium volume 800 Hounsfield Units (mm3) (OR = 1.017; P < .001) were independent predictors of =mild PVL. Conclusion: The Evolut-R 34 mm valve has shown comparable in-hospital results with smaller valve sizes. Pre-TAVI aortic valve peak velocity and calcium volume predicted = mild PVL in Evolut-R 34 mm patients. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of oral anticoagulant drugs and time in therapeutic range in patients receiving warfarin in addition to the epidemiological trial of non-valvular atrial fibrillation previously conducted in Turkey (The Atrial Fibrillation: Epidemiological Registry trial). Furthermore, the prevalence of major adverse events and mortality rates of the patients were evaluated during the long-term follow-up period. Methods: We created a national data registry for non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients, reflecting all geographic regions by population density. In that context, the study included all consecutive atrial fibrillation patients older than 18 years of age who were admitted to the cardiology outpatient clinic except for patients those with prosthetic heart valves and rheumatic mitral valve stenosis. Results: This study included 2592 patients from 35 different centers. The mean age was 68.7 ± 11.1 years, and 55.5% of the patients were female. The most common comorbid diseases were chronic kidney disease (69%) and hypertension (65.5%). The time in therapeutic range rate in the general population was 40%, and the mortality rate at 5-year follow-up was 29.4%. Conclusion: The Atrial Fibrillation: Epidemiological Registry 2 study showed higher use of anticoagulant in non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients than in previous national studies. Furthermore, this study demonstrated that most of the non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients are in the high-risk group and the time in therapeutic range rates are still low in Turkey. As a result, this is a significant reason for switching from warfarin to non-K vitamin-dependent new oral anticoagulant treatments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: We aimed to evaluate our clinical experience and short-term results of percutaneous closure of secundum type atrial septal defects (ASD) in adults. Methods: We studied 71 patients (49 female, 22 male, mean age 35±14 years) undergoing percutaneous closure of ASD between January 2010-October 2012 in our clinic. All procedures were performed under sedoanalgesia without balloon sizing. Clinical characteristics of patients, properties of percutaneous closure intervention, complications and short-term results are evaluated. Results: Defect diameter measured by transesophageal echocardiographic examination was 19.8±6.4 mm. Device size used for percutaneous closure was 24.7±6.7 mm. Procedure was successfully performed in 67 patients (94%). Four patients were referred for surgery because of procedural failure. During procedure, a patient developed transient 2nd degree AV block, and another developed device thrombosis. Residual shunt was detected in three patients at first day control echocardiographic examination. In the follow-up of 13±8 months, no residual shunt, embolic or arrhythmic complications were observed. Conclusion: Percutaneous closure of secundum ASD is a safe and effective method with high success and low complication rates in experienced centers. J Clin Exp Invest 2013; 4 (1): 67-72, Amaç: Bu çalışmada erişkinlerde sekundum atriyal septal defektlerin (ASD) perkütan yolla kapatılması işlemindeki klinik deneyimlerimiz ve erken dönem sonuçlarımızı değerlendirmeyi amaçladık. Yöntemler: Kliniğimizde Ocak 2010-Ekim 2012 tarihleri arasında sekundum ASD tanısı ile perkütan kapatma işlemi uygulanan 49\'u kadın 22\'si erkek toplam 71 hasta (ortalama yaşı 35±14 yıl) çalışmaya dâhil edildi. Hastalara sedoanaljezi eşliğinde ve balon ölçümü işlemi uygulanmadan perkütan ASD kapatma işlemi uygulandı. Hastaların klinik özellikleri, yapılan perkütan kapatma girişimlerinin özellikleri, gelişen komplikasyonlar ve erken dönem sonuçları değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Transözofageal ekokardiyografik incelemede hastaların ASD çapı 19,8±6,4 mm olarak ölçüldü. Bu hastalarda kullanılan kapatma cihazı çapı ortalaması 24,7±6,7 mm olarak saptandı. Toplam 71 hastadan 67\'sinde (%94) işlem başarılı oldu. Dört hastada işlem başarısız olarak kabul edilerek cerrahi tedavi kararı alındı. İşlem sırasında bir hastada geçici 2. derece AV blok gelişirken başka bir hastada ise cihaz üzerinde trombüs gelişimi izlendi. Üç hastada birinci gün kontrollerinde rezidü ASD geçişi izlendi. Ortalama 13±8 ay (1-31) boyunca izlenen hastalarda rezidü geçiş, aritmi ve embolik komplikasyonlar izlenmedi. Sonuç: Perkütan ASD kapatma işlemi deneyimli merkezlerde yüksek başarı ve düşük komplikasyon oranları ile etkin ve güvenli bir tedavi yaklaşımıdır.

İmplante edilen kardiyoverter defi brilatörler primer ve sekonder korumada ani ölümü önlemek amacıyla yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Bu cihazlar gerektiği zaman doğru akım şoku uygulayarak ventriküler taşikardi ve ventriküler fi brilasyon ataklarını sonlandırmaktadır. Ancak bu yararlı etkilerine rağmen uygunsuz şok implante edilen kardiyoverter defi brilatörlerin önemli bir yan etkisi olarak kalmaya devam etmektedir. Uygunsuz implante edilen kardiyoverter defi brilatör şokları hastalarda ağrı ve psikolojik yan etkilere neden olarak yaşam kalitesini bozmakta, hatta yeni aritmi gelişimini indükleyebilmektedir. Bu yazıda tremorun neden olduğu uygunsuz implante edilen kardiyoverter defi brilatör şoku alan bir olgu sunulmaktadır. Implantable cardioverter defi brillators are widely used for primary and secondary prevention from sudden death. These devices terminate attacks of ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fi brillation by applying direct current shock, if it necessary. Despite these benefi cal effects, inappropriate shocks are important side effects of implantable cardioverter defi brillators. Inappropriate implantable cardioverter defi brillator shocks impair life quality by causing pain and psychological side-effects, and even induce new arrhytmias. In this paper we present a case of inappropriate implantable cardioverter defi brillator shock due to tremor.

Öz: Giriş: Ankilozan spondilit kronik infl amatuvar bir hastalık olup, kardiyovasküler komplikasyonlarla ilişkili olabilmektedir. Bu çalışmada amacımız, kardiyak tutulum olmayan ankilozan spondilit hastalarında aortun elastik özellikleri ile serum asimetrik dimetilarjinin (ADMA) düzeylerinin araştırılmasıdır.Hastalar ve Yöntem: Elli beş ankilozan spondilit hastasıyla benzer yaş ve cinsiyette 30 sağlıklı birey çalışmaya alındı. Açlık glukoz, serum lipidleri, C-reaktif protein (CRP), eritrosit sedimentasyon hızı (ESH) ve ADMA düzeyleri çalışıldı. Aortik strain, distensibilite ve sertlik indeksi transtorasik ekokardiyografi de aort çapı ölçümleri ve eş zamanlı kan basıncı ölçümleriyle hesaplandı. Bulgular: Ankilozan spondilit grubunda ESH ve CRP düzeyleri yüksekti. Serum ADMA düzeyleri ankilozan spondilit grubunda kontrol grubuna göre anlamlı olarak yüksekti (0.76 ± 0.19 ve 0.55 ± 0.12, p< 0.001). Alt grup analizinde, anti-TNF-alfa tedavisi alan grupta konvansiyonel tedavi grubuna göre daha düşük ADMA düzeyi ölçüldü (0.68 ± 0.15 ve 0.87 ± 0.18, p< 0.001). Ortalama aortik strain ve distensibilite değerleri ankilozan spondilit grubunda daha düşük iken, sertlik indeksi daha yüksek saptandı. Korelasyon analizinde ADMA düzeyleri ile aortun elastik özellikleri arasında ilişki izlenmezken, ankilozan spondilit grubunda hastalık süresi ile aortik strain ve distensibilite arasında ters yönde anlamlı korelasyon izlendi.Sonuç: Çalışmamızda elde ettiğimiz sonuçlar kardiyak tutulumun olmadığı ankilozan spondilit hastalarında aortik elastisitenin bozulduğunu ve ADMA düzeylerinin arttığını göstermektedir. Ayrıca, aortun elastik özellikleri ile ADMA düzeyleri arasında anlamlı ilişki saptanamamıştır. Abstract: Introduction: Ankylosing spondylitis is a chronic infl ammatory disease which may be associated with cardiovascular complications. The aim of the study was to investigate aortic elastic properties and serum asymetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) levels in patients with ankylosing spondylitis without any cardiac involvement.Patients and Methods: Fifty-fi ve ankylosing spondylitis patients and 30 age/gender matched healthy subjects were enrolled into this study. Fasting glucose, serum lipids, C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and ADMA were studied. Aortic strain, distensibility and stiffness index were calculated from aortic diameters measured by transthoracic echocardiography and simultaneous blood pressure measurements.Results: ESR and CRP were higher in patients group. Serum ADMA levels were also higher in ankylosing spondylitis than in controls (0.76 ± 0.19 vs. 0.55 ± 0.12, p< 0.001). In subgroup analysis, ADMA was signifi cantly lower in anti-TNF-alfa treatment group than conventional treatment group (0.68 ± 0.15 vs. 0.87 ± 0.18, p< 0.001). Mean aortic strain and distensibility were lower and stiffness index was higher in ankylosing spondylitis group than controls. No correlation between ADMA and aortic elastic properties was observed. In ankylosing spondylitis group, a negative signifi cant correlation was found between duration of ankylosing spondylitis and aortic strain and distensibility.Conclusion: Our study suggest that patients with ankylosing spondylitis without cardiac involvement, aortic elasticity was impaired and ADMA levels were increased, while there was no signifi cant correlation between aortic elastic properties and ADMA levels.

Objective: We sought to analyze short-term clinical, echocardiographic, and hemodynamic consequences of percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty (PMBV) in the treatment of rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS) in our clinic. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 53 patients (49 females, 5 males; mean age 38±11 years) who underwent PMBV for moderate or severe MS between January 2010 and October 2014. Procedural success was defined as the reaching a mitral valve area (MVA) >1.5 cm2 and absence of grade 3 mitral regurgitation. Results: We were able to perform PMBV in 48 of 53 patients (91%) and all the procedures that were completed were successful. PMBV couldn\'t be performed in 3 patients due to inability to pass the mitral valve, 1 patient due to membranous obstructive vena cava and 1 patient due inability to perform septostomi. Two patients who underwent successful PMBV became symptomatic after an average of 14 months follow-up and mitral valve replacement was performed due to moderate-to-severe MS. Patients were followed for an average of 13 ± 8 months and atrial fibrillation development or embolic complications were not observed. Conclusion: Percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty procedure is a safe and effective treatment approach with high success and low complication rates in experienced centers., Amaç: Bu çalışmada kliniğimizdeki romatizmal mitral darlıklı (MD) erişkin hastalara uygulanan perkütan mitral balon valvüloplastinin (PMBV) erken dönem klinik, ekokardiyografik ve hemodinamik sonuçlarını değerlendirmeyi amaçladık. Yöntemler: Kliniğimizde Ocak 2010-Ekim 2014 tarihleri arasında orta ya da ciddi MD nedeniyle PMBV uygulanan 53 hasta (49 kadın, 5 erkek; ortalama yaş 38±11 yıl) geriye dönük olarak değerlendirildi. İşlem başarısı, işlem sonrası mitral kapak alanının (MKA) >1,5 cm2 olması ve 3. derece mitral yetersizlik (MY) olmaması olarak kabul edildi. Bulgular: Toplam 53 hastadan 48\'inde (%91) PMBV işlemi uygulanabildi ve tamamlanabilen tüm işlemler başarılı oldu. Hastalardan 3\'üne kapak geçilememesi, 1\'ine membranöz obstrüktif vena kava, 1\'ine de septostomi yapılamaması nedeniyle PMBV uygulanamadı. Başarılı PMBV uygulanan 2 hastaya ortalama 14 ay sonra semptomatik orta-ciddi MD nedeniyle mitral kapak replasmanı yapıldı. Ortalama 13±8 ay boyunca izlenen hastalarda atrial fibrilasyon gelişmesi veya embolik komplikasyonlar izlenmedi. Sonuç: Perkütan mitral balon valvüloplasti işlemi deneyimli merkezlerde yüksek başarı ve düşük komplikasyon oranları ile etkin ve güvenli bir tedavi yaklaşımıdır.

Acute cardiac tamponade requires urgent diagnosis and treatment. We report a case of a 43-year-old man who was receiving warfarin treatment for 8 months following mitral valve replacement. The patient had complaint of dyspnea and fatigue for a few days. Cardiac tamponade was diagnosed, and the INR at that time was 10.4. Urgent pericardiocentesis were undertaken and 1400 ml of pericardial blood was drained. Following surgery the patient\'s recovery was uneventful. An intravenous vitamin K injection and fresh frozen plasma transfusion were administered to reverse the patient\'s over-anticoagulated state. The final pathology revealed chronic inflammation and there was no malignancy, and no bacteria or mycobacterium were seen. Emergency physicians should remember that over-anticoagulation with warfarin may contribute to certain complications, including hemopericardium, and that strict control of target INR should be the goal for patients who require continuous warfarin treatment. J Clin Exp Invest 2013; 4 (2): 229-233, Akut kardiyak tamponad acil tanı ve tedavi gerektirir. Biz 43 yaşında, erkek ve mitral valv replasmanı sonrası sekiz aydır warfarin tedavisi alan bir olguyu aldık. Hastanın birkaç gündir başlayan nefes darlığı ve halsizlik şikayetikleri mevcuttu. Kardiyak tamponad tanısı konuldu ve 1400 ml mai perikardiyosentezle acil olarak drene edildi. Tanı sırasında İNR değeri çok yüksek olan hastaya Vitamin K antagonistleri ve taze donmuş plazma verilerek yuksek koagülasyon durumu geriye döndürüldü. Patolojik inceleme sonucunda enfeksiyon ve malingnensi saptanmadı. Hastada kronik inflamasyon düşünüldü. Sonuç olarak warfarin overdoz acil bir durum olup hemoperikardiyumla tamponada yol açabilmektedir. Bunun için warfarin tedavisi başlanılan hastalarda warfarin dozu ve hedef İNR değerleri sıkı kontrol edilmelidir.

Objectives: Our aim was to evaluate whether more than one observer or fractional flow reserve has the same results in assessing coronary lesion severity in intermediate lesions. Methods: Our hospital\'s database was searched for fractional flow reserve procedures and then these patient\'s lesions were assessed visually by three experienced interventional cardiologist. Results: 8 of 46 patients were (17.4%) female and 38 of 46 were (82,6%) male. Average age was 61±11 years (Male: 60±11 / Female: 70±7 years). One observer could only detect 66.7% of severe lesions and 76.2% of non-severe lesions. When two observers agreed about lesion severity, true detection of severe lesions was (max) 76.7%, and true detection of non-severe lesions was (max) 66.7%, so a decrease in true detection of non-severe lesions was observed. When one of the observers called a lesion âsevereâ and the lesion was assumed as âsevereâ, detection of a severe lesion was 83.3% (p=0.017); if all of the observers agreed that the lesion was ânon-severeâ then true detection of a non-severe lesion was 90.5% (p, Amaç: Koroner arter hastalığında orta dereceli lezyonların ciddiyetinin değerlendirilmesinde, çok gözlemci ile yapılan değerlendirmenin fraksiyonel akım rezervi ile benzer sonuçlar elde edip edemeyeceği belirlenmek istenmiştir. Yöntemler: Hastanemizin veritabanı fraksiyonel akım rezervi işlemleri açısından tarandı ve hastalara ait lezyonlar üç deneyimli girişimsel kardiyolog tarafından görsel olarak değerlendirildi. Bulgular: 46 olgunun 8\'i (%17,4) kadın ve 38\'i (%82,6) erkekti. Yaş ortalaması 61±11 yıl idi. (Erkek: 60±11 / Kadın: 70±7 yıl). Tek gözlemcinin ciddi lezyonların ancak %66,7\'sini saptayabildiği, ciddi olmayan lezyonların ise en fazla %76,2\'sini saptayabildiği gözlendi. İki gözlemcinin ortak kararına bakıldığında ise ciddi lezyonları saptama olasılığının maksimum %76,7, ciddi olmayan lezyonları saptama olasılığının ise maksimum %66,7 olduğu saptandı, yani iki gözlemcinin ortak kararı ile ciddi olmayan lezyonların değerlendirilmesinde yanlışlık olasılığının arttığı görüldü. Üç gözlemciden biri lezyona ciddi dediğinde ciddi çıkma ihtimalinin %83,3 e yükseldiği (p=0,017), üç gözlemcinin de ciddi değil olarak değerlendirdiği lezyonların ciddi çıkmama olasılığının %90,5\'e yükseldiği (p

Objective: We aimed to investigate short term effects of oral and infusion dosages of amiodarone on thyroid function. Methods: A hundred and fifty-five prospectively consecutive patients with a diagnosis of atrial or ventricular arrhythmias admitted to our clinic whom amiodarone were applied enrolled to our study. 134 patients received 16 mg/kg amiodarone iv infusion for 24 hours and oral 500±100 mg/day amiodarone as the maintenance dose for one month. 21 patients received only oral 500±100 mg/day amiodarone dose for one month. Follow up visit was performed in the first month of amiodarone therapy. Results: In this study 68% of patients were male and the average age of the patients was 62.8±13.5. The indications for amiodarone treatment were atrial fibrillation (41%), ventricular tachycardia (41%), and preoperative (5%), supraventricular tachycardia (5%), atrial flutter (5%), and ventricular fibrillation (3%). At the first month of follow up 83% of patients were in euthyroid state, 17% of the patients had amiodarone induced thyroid dysfunction (TD), 5% of patients had subclinical hyperthyroidism, 5% of patients had manifest hypothyroidism, 7% of patients had subclinical hyperthyroidism, and 1% of the patients developed overt hyperthyroidism. Conclusion: In this study we showed that amiodarone can cause adverse effects on thyroid function in a short time of period. For this reason patients should be followed in the first, third, sixth and twelfth months of amiodarone therapy and thyroid function should be evaluated. J Clin Exp Invest 2014; 5 (2): 280-285, Amaç: Bu yazıda amiodaronun tiroid fonksiyonları üzerindeki kısa dönem etkilerini, oral ve infüzyon dozlarınının tiroid fonksiyonları üzerindeki etkisini araştırmak amaçlanmıştır. Yöntemler: Kliniğimize atrial ve ventriküler aritmilerle başvurup amiodaron başlama endikasyonu olan ardışık 155 ötroid hasta çalışmaya alındı. Hastaların 134\'üne 16 mg/kg dozunda 24 saat IV amiodaron infüzyonu takiben bir ay boyunca oral 500±100 mg/gün, geriye kalan 21 hastaya ise sadece oral 500±100 mg/gün amiodaron başlandı. Hastalar tedavinin birinci ayında kontrole çağrıldı. Bulgular: Çalışmaya alınan hastaların %68\'i erkek olup hastaların ortalama yaşı. 62,8±13,5 idi. Amiodaron başlama endikayonu olan hastaların %41\'i atrial fibrilasyon, % 41\'i ventriküler taşikardi, %5\'i preoperatif, %5\'i supraventriküler taşikardi, %5\'i atriyal flutter, %3\'ü ventriküler fibrilasyondu. Birinci ay kontrolünde %83 hastada ötiroid durum, % 17 hastada ise amiodarona bağlı tiroid disfonksiyonu (TD) saptandı. TD saptanan hastaların %5\'i subklinik hipotiroidi, %5\'i aşikar hipotiroidi, %7\'si subklinik hipertiroidi, %1\'inde de aşikar hipertiroidi gelişmişti. Sonuçlar: Bu çalışmada amiodaronun kısa dönemde de tiroid fonksiyonları üzerinde olumsuz etki yapabileceğini gösterdik. Bu nedenle amiodaron tedavisi başlanan hastalar birinci ay, üçüncü ay, altıncı ay ve onikinci ay kontrole çağrılmalıdır. Böylece amiodaron tedavisi alması zorunlu hastalarda gelişecek olan TD erkenden tespit edilebilecek ve uygun tedavi başlanabilecektir.

İmplante edilen kardiyoverter defi brilatörler primer ve sekonder korumada ani ölümü önlemek amacıyla yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Bu cihazlar gerektiği zaman doğru akım şoku uygulayarak ventriküler taşikardi ve ventriküler fi brilasyon ataklarını sonlandırmaktadır. Ancak bu yararlı etkilerine rağmen uygunsuz şok implante edilen kardiyoverter defi brilatörlerin önemli bir yan etkisi olarak kalmaya devam etmektedir. Uygunsuz implante edilen kardiyoverter defi brilatör şokları hastalarda ağrı ve psikolojik yan etkilere neden olarak yaşam kalitesini bozmakta, hatta yeni aritmi gelişimini indükleyebilmektedir. Bu yazıda tremorun neden olduğu uygunsuz implante edilen kardiyoverter defi brilatör şoku alan bir olgu sunulmaktadır., Implantable cardioverter defi brillators are widely used for primary and secondary prevention from sudden death. These devices terminate attacks of ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fi brillation by applying direct current shock, if it necessary. Despite these benefi cal effects, inappropriate shocks are important side effects of implantable cardioverter defi brillators. Inappropriate implantable cardioverter defi brillator shocks impair life quality by causing pain and psychological side-effects, and even induce new arrhytmias. In this paper we present a case of inappropriate implantable cardioverter defi brillator shock due to tremor.

BSTRACT Objective: the neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), the platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and uric acid (UA) are inflammatory markers in cardiovascular disease. However, there are not enough data on infarct-related artery (IRA) patency in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We aimed to investigate the association of NLR, PLR, and UA with IRA patency before percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in STEMI. Methods: the study was designed as a retrospective study. Three hundred and twenty-four consecutive patients with STEMI were divided into two groups according to pre-PCI Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction flow grade (TIMI). Patients with a TIMI flow grade of into the spontaneous reperfusion (SR) group, while patients with TIMI flow grade of 0, 1 and 2 were placed into the non-SR group. the χ2 and independentsamples t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, multivariate logistic regression analysis, and receiver-operator characteristic (ROC) curve analysis were used for the statistical analysis. Results: PLR, NLR, and UA values in the SR group were lower than in the non-SR group (p190, UA>5.75 mg/dL, and NLR>4.2 predicted non-SR. the sensitivity and specificity of the association between low IRA TIMI flow grade and PLR were 88% and 84%, 72% and 66% for UA, and 74% and 44% for NLR, respectively. Conclusion: We determined that PLR and UA are novel predictors of IRA patency before PCI. We suggest that PLR and UA may be used in riskstratifying STEMI. (

Kalp ve Kalp Damar Sistemi - Abstract
Amaç: Atriyum fibrilasyonu (AF) önlenebilir iskemik inmenin en sık nedenlerinden biri olup artmış kardiyovasküler morbidite ve mortaliteyle ilişkilidir. Ülkemizde yeni oral antikoagülan kullanım sıklığı, vitamin K antagonisti kullanan hastalarda Uluslararası Düzeltme Oranının (INR) etkin düzeyde kalma oranı ve AF tedavi yönetimi ile ilgili büyük bir çalışma mevcut değildir. Bu çok merkezli çalışmada amacımız nonvalvüler AF hastalarında epidemiyolojik verilerin analizi, takibi ve değerlendirilmesidir. Çalışma planı: Kırk iki merkezden elektrokardiyografisinde en az bir defa AF atağı tespit edilmiş ardışık 4100 erişkin hasta çalışmaya alınacaktır. Romatizmal mitral darlığı ve protez kapak hastalığı olan AF hastaları çalışmaya alınmayacaktır. Hastalar birinci yılın sonunda majör kardiyak sonlanım noktaları (ölüm, geçici iskemik atak, inme, sistemik tromboembolizm, majör kanama ve hastane yatışı) açısından değerlendirilecektir. Bulgular: İlk sonuçlar Haziran 2015 yılında bekleniyor. Majör kardiyak sonlanım noktaları açısından veriler Ocak 2016da elde edilecektir. Sonuç: AFTER-2 çalışması ile ülkemizdeki non-valvüler AF hastalarının oral antikoagülan tedavi kullanım sıklığı ve çeşidi, varfarin alan hastalarda etkin INR düzeylerinde kalma oranı ve benimsenen tedavi yönetimi belirlenecektir. Ayrıca, ülkemizde AFli hastalarda majör istenmeyen olay sıklığı ve bu olayların bağımsız belirteçleri de ortaya çıkarılacaktır (AFTER-2 Study ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT02354456). Anahtar Kelimeler: Antikoagülan ilaç; atriyum fibrilasyonu/epidemiyoloji; ilaç kullanımı; elektrokardiyografi; uluslararası düzeltme oranı; varfarin. Objectives: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is one of the most common causes opreventable ischemic stroke and is related to increased cardiovasculamorbidity and mortality. There is a lack of data in Turkey on the use onew oral anticoagulants (NOACs), and time in therapeutic INR range (TTR) in vitamin K antagonist users and AF management modalityIn this multi-center trial, we aimed to analyze, follow and evaluate the epidemiological data in non-valvular AF patients. Study design: Four thousand one hundred consecutive adulpatients from 42 centers with at least one AF attack identified on electrocardiography will be included in the study. Patients with rheumatic mitral valve stenosis and prosthetic valve disease will be excluded from the study. At the end of one year, the patients will be evaluated in terms of major cardiac end points (death, transient ischemic attack, strokesystemic thromboembolism, major bleeding and hospitalization). Results: First results are expected in June 2015. Data about majocardiovascular end-points will be available in January 2016. Conclusion: The rates and kind of oral anticoagulant use, TTR in vitamin K antagonist users and main management modality applied in non-valvular AF patients will be determined by AFTER-2 studyIn addition, the rate of major adverse events (MACEs) and the independent predictors of these MACEs will be detected (AFTER-2 Study ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT02354456.).

- Abstract
AbstractKawasakidisease is usually self-limited, but it can lead to aneurysm, stenosis, thrombosis, and myocardial infarction in the coronary arteries. The most important complication of Kawasakidisease is coronary artery aneurysm. Coronary artery aneurysm or ectasia may be seen in 15–25% of patients who do not receive treatment. It develops in 5% of children who receive intravenous immunoglobulin at the appropriate time. Acute myocardial infarction is the most important cause of morbidity and mortality in Kawasakipatients with giant aneurysms. We present a 10-year-old girl who had a history of giant aneurysm in the coronary arteries and underwent percutaneous coronary intervention due to anterior myocardial infarction.

Objective: We sought to evaluate our clinical experience and short-term results of percutaneous closure of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). Methods: We studied 20 patients (17 female, mean age 24±8 years) undergoing percutaneous closure of PDA between March 2010-March 2013 in our clinic. Amplatzer duct occluder (ADO) I was used in 13 patients and ADO II was used in 7 patients for PDA closure. Clinical characteristics of patients, properties of percutaneous closure intervention, complications and short-term results are evaluated. Results: The mean ductus waist diameter measured by angiographic examination was 5±2 mm (2-9 mm). Procedure was successfully performed in all patients. Occluder device embolization was occurred in one patient in whom device was retrieved by snare catheter and PDA was successfully closed with same device. The early total occlusion rate was 85%. Occlusion rate as determined by echocardiographic control performed the day after was 95% whereas 100% at first month. In the follow-up of 19±9 months, no complications were observed. Conclusion: Percutaneous closure of PDA using ADO I and II devices are safe and effective., Amaç: Bu çalışmada erişkinlerde patent ductus arteriosusların (PDA) perkütan yolla kapatılması işlemindeki klinik deneyimlerimiz ve erken dönem sonuçlarımızı değerlendirmeyi amaçladık. Yöntemler: Kliniğimizde Mart 2010-Mart 2013 tarihleri arasında PDA tanısı ile perkütan kapatma işlemi uygulanan 20 hasta (ortalama yaşı 24±8 yıl, 17 kadın) çalışmaya dahil edildi. PDA kapatma işleminde 13 hastada Amplatzer duct ocluder (ADO) I cihazı, 7 hastada ise ADO II cihazı kullanıldı. Hastaların klinik özellikleri, yapılan perkütan kapatma girişimlerinin özellikleri, gelişen komplikasyonlar ve erken dönem sonuçları değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Anjiografik ölüçümde duktus en dar yeri ortalaması 5±2 mm (2-9 mm) ölçüldü. İşlem tüm hastalarda başarılı sonuçlandı. Yalnızca bir hastada ADO I cihazı bırakıldıktan hemen sonra embolize oldu. Embolize olan cihaz yakalayıcı kateter kullanılarak başarılı bir şekilde geri alındı ve aynı cihaz ile başarılı bir şekilde PDA kapatıldı. İşlem sonrası erken kapanma oranı %85, birinci gün ekokardiyografi kontrolünde tam kapanma oranı %95, 1. ay kontrolde kapanma oranı %100 izlendi. Ortalama 19±9 ay (2-37 ay) boyunca izlenen hastalarda herhangi bir komplikasyon izlenmedi. Sonuç: ADO I ve ADO II cihazlarıyla perkütan PDA kapatma işlemi başarılı ve güvenilir bir yöntemdir.

PATIENTS AND METHODS: 2242 consecutive patients admitted to the Cardiology Outpatient Clinics of 17 different tertiary Health Care Centers with at least one AF attack determined on electrocardiographic examination, were included in the study. Among the patients included in the study, 631 individuals aged 75 years and older were analyzed. RESULTS: The mean age of the patients was determined as 80.3 +/- 4.2 years. The most frequent type of AF in geriatric population was the persistent-permanent type with a percentage of 88%. 60% of the patients with AF were female. Hypertension was the most common co-morbidity in patients with AF (76%). While in 16% of patients a history of stroke, transient ischemic attack or systemic thromboembolism was present, a history of bleeding was present in 14% of the patients. 37% of the patients were on warfarin treatment and 60% of the patients were on aspirin treatment. In 38% of the patients who were on oral anticoagulant treatment, INR level was in the effective range. CONCLUSIONS: The rate of anticoagulant use in the elderly with AF was 37% and considering the reason of this situation was the medication not being prescribed by the physician, one should pay more attention particularly in the field of treatment.

Amaç: Atriyum fibrilasyonu (AF) klinik pratiğimizde en sık rastlanan ritm bozukluğu olup ülkemizde bu konuda yapılmış çok merkezli bir epidemiyolojik çalışma bulunmamaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı ülkemizde ilk kez yapılmış olan çok merkezli, ileriye dönük Atrial Fibrillation in Turkey: Epidemiologic Registry (AFTER) çalışmasının kayıtlarından yararlanarak AFye klinik yönden yaklaşımımızı değerlendirmektir. Çalışma planı: Ülkemizde nüfus dağılımı göz önünde bulundurularak 17 ayrı üçüncü basamak merkezden, elektrokardiyografisinde en az bir defa AF atağı tespit edilmiş olan ardışık 2242 hasta çalışmaya alındı. Acil polikliniğine başvuran ya da yatmakta olan hastalar çalışmadan dışlandı. Hastaların epidemiyolojik verileri ve uygulanan tedaviler değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Çalışma popülasyonunu oluşturan hastaların %60ı kadındı, hastaların ortalama yaşı 66.812.3 yıl olarak saptandı. Türk nüfusunda en sık görülen AF tipi non-valvular AF (%78) olup, AFli hastaların %81i ısrarcı-kalıcı AFli idi. AFye en sık eşlik eden komorbid durum hipertansiyon (%67) olarak bulundu. Hastaların %15.3ünde inme, geçici iskemik atak ve sistemik tromboemboli hikayesi mevcut iken kanama öyküsü hastaların %11.2sinde kaydedildi. Çalışma süresinde hastaların %50si warfarin, %53ü de aspirin kullanıyordu. Oral antikoagülan ilaç kullanan hastaların %41.3ünde etkin INR düzeyi saptandı. Oral antikoagülan ilaç kullanmamanın en sık nedeni (%69) hekim ihmali olarak saptandı. Sonuç: Bu veriler klinik pratiğimizde özellikle AFli hastaların antitrombotik tedavileri konusunda daha dikkatli olunması gerektiğini göstermektedir., Objectives: Although atrial fibrillation (AF) is one of the most com- mon rhythm disorders observed in clinical practice, a multicenter epidemiological study has not been conducted in our country. This study aimed to assess our clinical approach to AF based upon the records of the first multicenter prospective Atrial Fibrillation in Tur- key: Epidemiologic Registry (AFTER) study. Study design: Taking into consideration the distribution of the population in our country, 2242 consecutive patients with at least one AF attack determined by electrocardiographic examination in 17 different tertiary health care centers were included in the study. Inpatients and patients that were admitted to emergency depart- ments were excluded from the study. Epidemiological data of the patients and the treatment administered were assessed. Results: The mean age of the patients was determined as 66.8±12.3 years with female patients representing 60% of the study popula- tion. While the most common AF type in the Turkish population was non-valvular AF (78%), persistent/permanent AF was determined in 81% of all patients. Hypertension (%67) was the most common co- morbidity in patients with AF. While a stroke or transient ischemic at- tack or history of systemic thromboembolism was detected in 15.3% of the patients, bleeding history was recorded in 11.2%. Also, 50% of the patients were on warfarin treatment and 53% were on aspi- rin treatment at the time of the study. The effective INR level was detected in 41.3% of the patients. The most frequent cause of not receiving anticoagulant therapy was physician neglect. Conclusion: These results demonstrate the necessity for improved quality of physician care of patients with AF, especially with regards to antithrombotic therapy.

Objectives: In this study, we aimed to compare the effects of infarct localization in patients with ST Elevated Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) on the right ventricular (RV) functions by using advanced echocardiographic methods. Materials and methods: A total of 89 patients with STEMI were included into the study and patients were divided to three groups as anterior, isolated-inferior and inferior+RV MI groups. In addition to standard echocardiographic mesurements, RV tissue doppler, RV Ejection Fraction (RVEF), Myocardial performance index (MPI) and TAPSE measurements of all patients were performed between 24-72 hours after the event. Results: Compared to groups, RV functions in inferior MI with RV involvement group were deteriorated. Tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) value for the inferior MI with RV involvement (19±1mm) group were lower than those for Inferior MI group without RV involvement (23±1mm) and anterior MI (23±1mm) (p, Amaç: Bu çalışmada amacımız ST elevasyonlu miyokard infarktüsü (STEMİ) hastalarında ileri ekokardiyografik metodlar kullanarak infarkt lokalizasyonunun sağ ventrikül fonksiyonları üzerindeki etkilerini karşılaştırmaktır.Gereç ve yöntem: Çalışmaya toplam 89 STEMİ hastası alındı. Hastalar infarkt lokalizasyonuna göre anteriyor, izole inferior ve inferior+sağ ventrikül miyokard infarktüsü (Mİ) olmak üzere üç gruba ayrıldı. Tüm hastalara ilk 2472 saat içinde ekokardiografik inceleme yapılarak rutin ekokardiografik ölçümlere ek olarak sağ ventrikül doku Doppler, sağ ventrikül ejeksiyon fraksiyonu (SağVEF), miyokard performans indeksi (MPİ) ve Triküspit Anüler Düzlem Sistolik Hareketlerinin (TAPSE) ölçümleri alındı.Bulgular: Gruplar karşılaştırıldığında, sağ ventrikül tutulumu olan inferior Mİ grubunda sağ ventrikül fonksiyonlarının bozulmuş olduğu görüldü. TAPSE, sağ ventrikül tutulumu olan inferior MI (19±1mm) grubunda izole inferior MI (23±1mm) ve anterior MI (23±1mm) gruplarına göre daha düşüktü (p
