Using Deep Neural Networks for Survival Prediction in VA-ECMO

Using Deep Neural Networks for Survival Prediction in VA-ECMO

Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is a complex and high-risk life support modality used in severe cardiorespiratory failure. ECMO survival scores are used clinically for patient prognostication... read more

Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation in Hypertrophic and Restrictive Cardiomyopathy

Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation in Hypertrophic and Restrictive Cardiomyopathy

Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation in patients with advanced heart failure due to hypertrophic or restrictive cardiomyopathy (HCM/RCM) presents technical and physiologic challenges. We conducted a systematic... read more

Septic Cardiomyopathy

Septic Cardiomyopathy

Septic cardiomyopathy is an important contributor to organ dysfunction in sepsis. Guided treatment of septic cardiomyopathy may affect patients' prognosis, especially when their cardiac index is substantially decreased. The... read more

Moderate Exercise and Oxygen Consumption in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Moderate Exercise and Oxygen Consumption in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

This randomized clinical trial assesses whether moderate-intensity exercise training, compared with usual activity, improves exercise capacity in adults with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. During a 5-year period, 728 adult... read more
