  • This study found that the device was associated with fewer deaths among people recovering from a heart attack with low ejection fraction. (acc.org)
  • It was designed to test whether this device could effectively reduce sudden death in patients who had recently suffered a heart attack and had reduced heart function (defined as a low ejection fraction of 35 percent or less) where the heart wasn't able to pump sufficient blood to the rest of the body, which is indicative of a sizable heart attack. (acc.org)
  • Second, in many cases someone's ejection fraction will improve in the ensuing months post-heart attack. (acc.org)
  • In VEST, for example, 60 percent of people with low ejection fraction in the first three months after heart attack recovered and no longer met the criteria for an ICD at 90 days. (acc.org)
  • The trial enrolled 2,300 adult patients admitted to the hospital for heart attack with an ejection fraction of ≤ 35 percent across more than 100 trial sites in four countries. (acc.org)
  • The first heart sound (S1) is the vibrational sound made by the heart during tensing of the mitral valve. (justia.com)

  • The aims of this study were to evaluate the use of comprehensive Doppler echocardiography as a guide during Biv pacemaker optimization in patients after cardiac resynchronization therapy and to evaluate the feasibility of S 3 intensity to be a cost-efficient parameter for Biv pacemaker optimization compared with Doppler echocardiography. (thoracickey.com)
  • Comprehensive echocardiographically guided Biv pacemaker optimization produces significant improvement in Doppler echocardiographic hemodynamics, a reduction in S 3 intensity, and an improvement in functional class in patients after cardiac resynchronization therapy. (thoracickey.com)
