Book excerpt: This book is the ultimate reference on patent foramen ovale (PFO), a defect in the septum of the heart estimated to be present in more than twenty percent of the adult population and a proven cause of systemic embolism. All chapters have been written by internationally recognized experts in the field and cover PFO genetics and anatomy in addition to the effect PFO can have on various different organs and its supposed involvement in several conditions and clinical syndromes such as migraine, diving incidence, platynea orthodeoxia, economy class syndrome, sleep apnea and persistent desaturations in mild right ventricular dysfunction. As PFO anatomy varies significantly between individuals, chapters have also been included on the diagnostic tools, methods and techniques for appropriate assessment, detection and characterization of PFO. Furthermore, the multitude of available closure devices and techniques for PFO closure are discussed together with current and ongoing trial data. The book concludes with guidance and instruction on establishing a successful PFO program. Patent Foramen Ovale will be an essential text for the whole adult and pediatric interventional community, general cardiologists, internists, primary care physicians, neurologists and device companies in addition to medical students, graduate students and fellows in training.

Download or read book Methods in Comparative Effectiveness Research written by Constantine Gatsonis and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-02-24 with total page 547 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comparative effectiveness research (CER) is the generation and synthesis of evidence that compares the benefits and harms of alternative methods to prevent, diagnose, treat, and monitor a clinical condition or to improve the delivery of care (IOM 2009). CER is conducted to develop evidence that will aid patients, clinicians, purchasers, and health policy makers in making informed decisions at both the individual and population levels. CER encompasses a very broad range of types of studies—experimental, observational, prospective, retrospective, and research synthesis. This volume covers the main areas of quantitative methodology for the design and analysis of CER studies. The volume has four major sections—causal inference; clinical trials; research synthesis; and specialized topics. The audience includes CER methodologists, quantitative-trained researchers interested in CER, and graduate students in statistics, epidemiology, and health services and outcomes research. The book assumes a masters-level course in regression analysis and familiarity with clinical research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction: The role of patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure to prevent ischemic stroke recurrence remains controversial. Its efficacy for the prevention of recurrence after cryptogenic stroke has been proven in recently published clinical trials, especially in young patients when large shunts are observed. Children have been excluded from these trials.Methods: Case report.Results: A nine years old girl had a cryptogenic ischemic stroke in the left thalamus. Cardioembolic sources, carotid stenosis or thrombophilia were not found. She was discharged without sequelae and started treatment with aspirin. Four years later, she was admitted to hospital with sudden onset dizziness, vomiting and right limb and gait ataxia. Magnetic resonance showed an acute right cerebellar infarction. She had favourable clinical outcome in few days with complete remission of symptoms. Transcranial doppler and transesophageal echocardiography showed presence of PFO with large interatrial shunt (>30 microbubbles). PFO closure was performed during admission. She was discharged on dual antiplatelet therapy and she was switched to clopidogrel alone after two months. No further recurrence have been recorded during follow up. Conclusions: In selected cases, children with cryptogenic stroke may be considered to perform PFO closure to prevent ischemic stroke recurrence.
