IMT em Diabéticos

CONCLUSIONS Carotid IMT is a significant predictor of CVD in asymptomatic type 2 diabetic patients, and the combination of FRS and IMT improves the prediction of CVD in these patients.…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. Durante o mestrado, fiz centenas de exames de carótidas de diabéticos convicto que não serviria para nada. Agora esse estudo revela valor adicional ao Escore de Framingham! . De acordo com os achados recentes de que parte dos diabéticos não evoluem mal no sistema cardiovascular…………………………………………………………………… Talvez a IMT possa identificar esses pacientes ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….

EMBOLIA PULMONAR AO ECO.

AQUI LINK………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. Echocardiography can be used for rapid and accurate risk stratification of patients with pulmonary embolism to appropriately direct the therapeutic strategies for those at high risk. Echocardiography is an ideal risk stratification tool in this regard because of its easy portability to the emergency room or to the bed side. It can be performed at a relatively low cost and at no risk to the patient. Furthermore, echocardiography allows repetitive noninvasive assessment of the cardiovascular and hemodynamic status of the patient and the response to the therapeutic interventions. Right ventricular hypokinesis, persistent pulmonary hypertension, a patent foramen ovale, and a free floating right heart thrombus are echocardiographic markers that identify patients at a higher risk for morbidity and mortality. Such patients warrant special consideration for thrombolysis or embolectomy. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
