Epidemiologic and clinical characteristics and course of acute heart failure and cardiogenic shock diagnosed in emergency departments.
Emergencias
December 2024
Servicio de Urgencias, Hospital Clínic Barcelona, IDIBAPS, Universitat de Barcelona, España.
Objective: To describe the characteristics of patients diagnosed with acute heart failure (AHF) in emergency departments (EDs) who develop cardiogenic shock (CS) not associated with ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (STACS).
Methods: Information for patients diagnosed with AHF in 23 Spanish EDs and registered between 2009 and 2019 were included for analysis if the patients developed symptoms consistent with CS. We described baseline clinical characteristics related to cardiac decompensation and CS, as well as 30-day mortality.
Biomechanical analysis of spinal misalignment during Vehicular extrication maneuvers performed by professional rescue teams.
Heliyon
October 2024
New Technologies in Health, UCAM Universidad Católica de Murcia, Spain.
Objective: To compare spinal misalignment and execution time of 3 rescue maneuvers for casualties in traffic accidents.
Materials And Methods: Biomechanical analysis using inertial sensors to measure the range of spinal misalignment and execution time of 3 maneuvers: 1) standard manual rescue (SMR); 2) rapid extrication device (RED); 3) extrication device (ED). The sample consisted of 117 rescue professionals (firefighters) from 14 Autonomous Communities in Spain.
Relationship between clinical congestion and worsening renal function after intravenous initiation of furosemide in patients with acute heart failure.
Intern Emerg Med
October 2024
Emergency Department, Institut d'Investigacions Biomèdiques August Pi I Sunyer (IDIBAPS), Hospital Clínic, University of Barcelona, C/ Villarroel 170, 08036, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain.
To investigate if worsening renal function (WRF) appearing in some patients with acute heart failure (AHF) after intravenous furosemide initiation is influenced by severity of congestion. We conducted a retrospective secondary analysis of consecutive patients diagnosed with AHF and prospectively included in 10 Spanish emergency departments (EDs) for whom serum creatinine at ED arrival and after 2-7 days of intravenous furosemide initiation were available. Congestion was clinically evaluated by identification of 7 signs/symptoms and by chest X-ray.

Int J Cardiol
January 2025
Emergency Department, Hospital Clínic, Institut d'Investigacions Biomèdiques August Pi i Sunyer (IDIBAPS), University of Barcelona, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain.
Objectives: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the impact of chronic treatment with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) on short-term clinical outcomes after an episode of AHF.
Methods: A secondary analysis of patients included in the EAHFE (Epidemiology of Acute Heart Failure in Emergency Departments) cohort, which includes patients diagnosed with AHF in 45 Spanish Emergency Departments (EDs). The primary outcome was all-cause in-hospital mortality.
Hepatitis C virus detection in hospital emergency departments.
Emergencias
June 2024
Servicio de Urgencias, Hospital Clínico San Carlos, Madrid, España.
The prevalence of active hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is higher in hospital emergency departments (EDs) than in the general population. Numerous patients who seek emergency care are unaware that they have detectable viremia, yet they fall outside established ED protocols for HCV screening. Often they belong to groups with difficult access to health care who use the ED as their point of entry to the system.
