Multiple Algorithms System Of All Scores in Embolism (MOSE)

Venous ThromboembolismRisk Assessment1 more

The aim of this study is to overcome the current limits of the scoring systems used to predict both the thrombotic (VTE) and hemorrhagic (BLD) risk for the patient. The main problem of these scoring systems is due to the high rigidity related to the score assigned at each risk item. The presence of an item assigns the full score for that item, without the possibility to moderate that item's score. The final class of risk, for the patient, is the sum of the scores of the selected items. The approach used for the assessment is based on the presence or absence of certain items that will be summed. Starting from scoring system currently used for VTE (PADUA, CAPRINI, KHORANA) and also for BLD (IMPROVE), we will integrate all common items in a single scoring system managed by risk management algorithms that can identify the different classes of risk.

Evaluation of Lung Doppler Signals in Patients Presenting to EMD

Acute CardiovascularPneumonia3 more

Historically, ultrasound has been unable to provide interpretable data from the lung parenchyma, mainly because of the high total ultrasound energy attenuation and scattering by the air in the lungs. Recently it has been shown that clear reproducible Doppler signals can be recorded from the lung parenchyma by means of a pulsed Doppler ultrasound system incorporating a special signal processing package (transthoracic parametric Doppler, TPD, EchoSense Ltd., Haifa, Israel). These lung Doppler signals (LDS) are in full synchrony with the cardiac cycle and can be obtained from the lungs, including areas remote from the heart and main pulmonary vessels. The LDS waves typically have peak velocities of up to 30 cm/s and are of relatively high power, making it possible to detect them despite the aforementioned attenuation by the air in the lungs. The LDS are thought to represent the radial wall movement of small pulmonary blood vessels, caused by pressure pulse waves of cardiac origin which propagate throughout the lung vasculature. The LDS may contain information of significant diagnostic and physiological value regarding the pulmonary parenchyma and vasculature, as well as the cardio-vascular system in general. Preliminary data from ongoing studies employing the TPD in chronic diseases such as CHF, COPD and pulmonary hypertension, show promise regarding the diagnostic potential of the lung Doppler signals (unpublished data). However, lung Doppler signals in acute disease states were not investigated so far. It is reasonable to speculate that the pathological processes underlying acute cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases will affect the LDS. Therefore, the TPD may have diagnostic potential in these conditions. For example, during acute pulmonary embolism a portion of the pulmonary vascular system is occluded; therefore it's reasonable to assume that the LDS will disappear in the affected area, enabling to confirm the diagnosis without using ionizing radiation (as in CT or lung scan). Another example is COPD exacerbation, during which there is usually air trapping in the lungs; thus, the LDS may be attenuated by the increase of air volume in the lungs.

Clinical Echography in Emergency Prognostic Evaluation of Pulmonary Embolism: ECU -EP Study.

EmbolismPulmonary

Pulmonary Embolism (PE) is a frequent disease, the third cause of cardiovascular death after stroke and myocardial infarction. According to European guidelines of European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and of European Respiratory Society (ERS), the prognostic stratification of PE severity is mandatory as soon as PE is diagnosed. This stratification includes the hemodynamic status, and specific tools : the assessment of the sPESI score, and the evaluation of PE's impact on right ventricle (RV) : increased biomarkers (troponin, BNP) and right ventricle/left ventricle (RV/LV) ratio. the RV/LV ration may be evaluated ideally by transthoracic echo (TTE), or by CT scan. Unfortunately, only 10% of patients with PE are evaluated with TTE by a cardiologist in the initial time of PE diagnosis. Hence, the CT scan is the most frequent way to assess RV/LV ratio. However, CT is not possible for all patients (patients with contra-indication) or may have difficulties to provide a clear assessment because of technical issues. Then, there is a need for morphological evaluation of RV as soon as PE is diagnosed, in every clinical setting. The improvement in technologies allowed the development of clinical echography (CE) in emergency departments. CE is already available, non-invasive, less expansive, and may be a good way to assess RV/LV ratio in patients with PE diagnosed in emergency departments. The investigators propose a prospective, multicenter study to assess the sensitivity of CE in patients with PE, compared to CT scan to detect RV/LV ≥0.9.

Registry Of Acute meDical Emergencies in Brazil

Acute Coronary SyndromesHeart Failure6 more

Critical patients in emergency room are seriously situations that need quickly diagnosis and treatment. Different predictors of prognosis can be related with mortality and morbidity in-hospital and in long-term. In Brazil, this kind of registry is not available. The aim of the study is analysis and report data about critical patients in Emergency Departments over all country, showing demographic, clinical and prognosis data about that in Brazil.
