AI Article Synopsis

  • A limited number of cases have been documented where severe rhabdomyolysis led to cardiac arrest in adult males with undiagnosed McArdle disease.
  • In this particular case, advanced medical interventions, including veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO), were necessary for treatment.
  • The use of a cytokine adsorption filter (CytoSorb®) was critical in achieving a full recovery for the patient.

Article Abstract

Few cases have been reported to date, in which a massive rhabdomyolysis causes a cardiac arrest in a male adult suffering from undiagnosed McArdle disease. Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and cytokine adsorption filter (CytoSorb®) were required to reach a complete and successful recovery.

Inheritance of Imaging Parameters of Arrhythmic Risk in Mitral Valve Prolapse: A Pedigree Study.

Circ Cardiovasc Imaging

January 2025

Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco (L.C., S.D., D.B., J.J.T., Q.F., L.T., A.H.R., R.J., S.H., H.H.H., Z.H.T., N.B.S., F.N.D.).

Background: A subset of patients with mitral valve prolapse (MVP), a highly heritable condition, experience sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) or sudden cardiac death (SCD). However, the inheritance of phenotypic imaging features of arrhythmic MVP remains unknown.

Methods: We recruited 23 MVP probands, including 9 with SCA/SCD and 14 with frequent/complex ventricular ectopy.

The guide extension-facilitated ostial stenting (GEST) technique uses a guide extension catheter (GEC) to improve stent delivery during primary coronary angioplasty (PCI). GECs are used for stent delivery into the coronary arteries of patients with difficult anatomy due to tortuosity, calcification, or chronic total occlusion (CTO) vessels. Stent and balloon placement has become challenging in patients with increasing lesion complexity due to tortuosity, vessel morphology, length of the lesion, and respiratory movements.

Trustworthiness of a machine learning early warning model in medical and surgical inpatients.

JAMIA Open

February 2025

Kern Center for the Science of Health Care Delivery, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN 55905, United States.

Objectives: In the general hospital wards, machine learning (ML)-based early warning systems (EWSs) can identify patients at risk of deterioration to facilitate rescue interventions. We assess subpopulation performance of a ML-based EWS on medical and surgical adult patients admitted to general hospital wards.

Materials And Methods: We assessed the scores of an EWS integrated into the electronic health record and calculated every 15 minutes to predict a composite adverse event (AE): all-cause mortality, transfer to intensive care, cardiac arrest, or rapid response team evaluation.

Comparison of hypothermic and normothermic targeted temperature management in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients with acute coronary syndrome: a nationwide retrospective study.

Crit Care

January 2025

Division of Environmental Medicine and Population Services, Department of Social and Environmental Medicine, Graduate School of Medicine, Osaka University, Osaka, Japan.

Background: Targeted temperature management (TTM) is considered a beneficial treatment for improving outcomes in patients with OHCA due to acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The comparative benefits of hypothermic TTM (32-34°C) versus normothermic TTM (35-36°C) are unclear. This study compares these TTM strategies in improving neurological outcomes and survival rates in OHCA patients with ACS.
