THE HEMODYNAMIC CORNER • Aortic Stenosis Severity: Rhythm Makes a Difference

The assessment of aortic valve stenosis (AS) severity based on Doppler velocity and pressure gradient is flow dependent. Both velocity and pressure gradient increase with elevated transaortic flows and decrease with reduction in flow rates for a given aortic valve orifice area. In this case repo...

REVIEW • Cardiac Imaging for Diagnosis and Management of Infective Endocarditis

In-hospital mortality of infective endocarditis (IE) remains approximately 20%, and 1-year mortality approaches 40%. Decision-making in patients with IE is often complex, requiring collaboration among cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, and infectious disease specialists, among others. Although echocar...

CASE REPORT • The Dance of Death: Cardiac Arrest, Mitral and Tricuspid Valve Prolapses, and Biannular Disjunctions

Despite advances in resuscitation techniques, out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCAs) remain a pressing global health issue with poor outcomes. In this case report, the authors describe a patient with OHCA secondary to ventricular fibrillation that was found to have the classical features of MVP, MA...
