Restenosis

Restenosis is the development of a repeated narrowing of 50% or more at the site of percutaneous coronary intervention. Restenosis is usually accompanied by a recurrence of angina, which often requires repeated interventions.

Painless ischemia

Painless ischemia - detection during instrumental research methods (Holter ECG monitoring - HMECG, stress tests) of signs of myocardial ischemia that are not accompanied by attacks of angina pectoris or their equivalent.

What to do when you have low blood pressure?

The question of what to do with low blood pressure arises only for those who, against the background of abnormally low blood pressure figures, complain of a decrease in vitality.

PQ interval shortening

Our article contains introductory information about a medical term that is often encountered when evaluating a cardiogram – shortening of the PQ interval.

Lymphostasis

Lymphostasis is a disorder of lymph outflow, accompanied by edema. The volume of the limb increases in this condition. Severe lymphostasis is called elephantiasis. The impetus for the development of lymphostasis can be an injury (bruise, injury, fracture, burn), often the disorder of lymph outflow occurs after operations.

Treatment of mitral valve prolapse

Treatment of mitral valve prolapse involves eliminating the symptoms of cardialgia, palpitations, increased fatigue and anxiety.

Diagnosis of dilated cardiomyopathy

Diagnosis of dilated cardiomyopathy should be based on the exclusion of other causes of heart failure, such as coronary heart disease, congenital and acquired heart defects, and arterial hypertension.

Arrhythmogenic dysplasia of the right ventricle

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), or arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia, is a disease in which the normal myocardium of the right ventricle is replaced by fatty or fibrofatty tissue.

Diagnosis of mitral valve prolapse

Diagnosis of mitral valve prolapse is carried out on the basis of a comprehensive clinical and instrumental examination, including an analysis of subjective manifestations, typical auscultatory data and echocardiographic signs.
