Öğe Cardiac Involvement is the Reason for Persistent Dyspnea in Post COVID-19 Patients without Pulmonary Sequelae: A Retrospective Study(OrtadogŸu Reklam Tanitim Yayincilik Turizm Egitim Insaat Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S., 2022) Çöllüoglu, T.; Acat, M.; Özsaraç, Ö.; Akin, Y.; Önalan, O.Objective: Several forms of cardiovascular involvement have been described in acute coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) infection and also it has been shown that acute infection is responsible for cardiac symptoms. However, the data on cardiac involvement and associated symptoms in chronic phase remains unclear. Recent evidence have shown that the reason for persistent dyspnea can be persistent cardiac dysfunction in post COVID-19 infection. The aim of our study was to investigate the relationship between persistent dyspnea and cardiac involvement in post COVID-19 patients without pulmonary sequelae. Material and Methods: In our study, we recruited 30 post COVID-19 patients with dyspnea between January 2021 and July 2021. In all patients, the absence of pulmonary sequelae was detected with PFT and chest- CT. 2D-TTE, 2D-STE and MPS were performed for each case. Results: Left ventricular dysfunction was detected in 63.3% of patients and also 93.3% of patients had extensive abnormal GLS at 3 month follow-up. Of the patients, 33.3% had myocardial perfusion defect (MPD) and all MPDs were observed to be reversible defects. MPD was obviously seen in anterior wall (60%) and mid (20%) to apical (70%) segments. As compared with patients without MPD, patients with MPD had higher CK-MB (p: 0.016) and troponin I (p: 0.011), lesser PW thickness (p:0.020) and lower peak systolic strain rate at A2C view (p:0.031). Patients with NYHA III had more impaired GLS than patients with NYHA II (p:0.035). Conclusion: Our study suggests ischemic or non-ischemic cardiac dysfunction may be associated with persistent dyspnea in post- COVID- 19 patients without lung sequelae. © 2022 by Türkiye Klinikleri.Öğe Evaluation of structural valve deterioration and bioprosthetic valve failure utilizing the new European consensus definition in patients undergoing TAVI with first-generation devices: Outcomes beyond 5 years from a single center in Turkey(Turkish Society of Cardiology, 2021) Sentürk, B.; Dursun, H.; Çöllüoglu, T.; Özdamar, H.; Ekin, T.; Tanriverdi, Z.; Kaya, D.Objective: The long-term durability of transcatheter aortic bioprosthetic valves continues to be a major concern. Standardized criteria of the structural valve deterioration (SVD) and bioprosthetic valve failure (BVF) have recently been defined. Limited studies have evaluated the long-term durability of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) according to these new definitions. We aim to analyze the durability of TAVI beyond 5 years and to report the frequency of SVD and BVF. Methods: A total of 89 patients who had undergone TAVI and had theoretically completed at least 5 years after the procedure were included. Either a Medtronic CoreValve or an Edwards SAPIEN XT valve were implanted in the patients. New standardized definitions were used to evaluate SVD and BVF. Results: The mean age of the patients was 78.70±6.95 years. SVD occured in 4 (4.5%) patients during 6 years of follow-up. Severe SVD was observed in 2 patients (2.2%), and these patients had the New York Heart Association class II symptoms. Both patients with severe SVD also met the criteria of BVF. Moderate SVD was observed in 2 patients (2.2%), and these patients had no valve-related symptoms. Of the 4 SVD cases, 2 were associated with increased mean transaortic gradients, whereas the remaining 2 cases were associated with intraprosthetic aortic regurgitation. All patients with SVD are still alive, and none of them have required aortic valve reintervention. Conclusion: Although first-generation TAVI devices were used, we determined the low rate of SVD and BVF at the 6-year follow-up. It may be suggested that there is no major concern associated with TAVI even with first-generation devices regarding long-term durability. © Copyright 2021 by Turkish Society of Cardiology - Available online at www.anatoljcardiol.com
