Obstructive Sleep Apnea Causing Chest Pain and Cardiac Arrhythmias-Juniper Publishers

Journal of Cardiology & Cardiovascular Therapy-Juniper Publishers

Chest pain is one of the most common complaints for patients presenting to the hospital. It can be a manifestation of coronary artery disease, acid peptic disease, pleuritis, or musculoskeletal problems. Patients with obstructive sleep apnea may present with chest pain and heart block but lack typical features such as day-time sleepiness, poor concentration, fatigue, and restlessness. Obstructive sleep apnea can cause these problems due to episodes of transient nocturnal hypoxia.

Physical Condition for the Coronary Artery Disease Patients-Juniper Publishers

Image
JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF CARDIOLOGY & CARDIOVASCULAR THERAPY Keywords: Aerobic exercise; Cardiac output; Maximal oxygen uptake Coronary Artery Disease Considerations A systematic review estimated that inactivity is responsible for 6% of the burden of disease from coronary heart disease worldwide [1]. CAD influence on work capacity and physical performance has been widely investigated. Myocardial functional changes include declines in maximum heart rate, stroke volume, left ventricular contractility and an increase in peripheral vascular resistance. Oxygen demand and supply for the Myocardium are normally balanced. Oxygen demand above quiescent needs of the Myocardium is determined by number of factors: Heart rate-the greater the frequency of contractions, the greater the oxygen demand. Myocardial wall tension is a function of both left ventricular systolic pressure and the ventricular radius [2]. The contractility of the heart-relates to the ...

Undetected pulmonary Artery Aneurysms Secondary to Prolonged Right-sided Endocarditis in a Patient with Corrected Tetralogy of Fallot-Juniper Publishers

Image
JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF CARDIOLOGY & CARDIOVASCULAR THERAPY Abstract Mycotic pulmonary artery aneurysms are a rare complication of right-sided endocarditis most often associated with congenital heart disease or intravenous drug addiction. We report a case of undetected mycotic pulmonary artery aneurysms secondary to prolonged right-sided endocarditis in a 25-years old patient with corrected tetralogy of Fallot /pulmonary atresia. An attempt to explain the delayed diagnosis of endocarditis with subsequent mycotic aneurysms formation is made and the clinical and imaging findings of this rare complication during a long-term follow up are presented, contributing to our knowledge on the natural history of this disease. Keywords: Mycotic aneurysms; Tetralogy of Fallot /pulmonary atresia; Right heart endocarditis; Kocuria varians Abbreviations: CT: Computed Tomography; TTE: Trans Thoracic Echocardiogram; MRI: Magnetic Resonance Imaging; MRA: Magne...
