Dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) is a commonly used tool for cardiac risk stratification, but its predictive utility in this population remains controversial.Objective: To evaluate the role of DSE in predicting 30-day cardiac morbidity and mortality in ESLD patients undergoing LT.Methods: This was a prospective observational study conducted at a tertiary care centre from June 2020 to November 2021. Ninety-four patients aged ≥40 years with ≥2 cardiovascular risk factors underwent DSE as part of their pre-LT evaluation. Patients were categorized based on DSE results as ischemic, non-ischemic, or indeterminate. Outcomes measured included 30-day mortality, major adverse cardiac events (MACE), ICU stay, and inotrope requirement.Results: The study included 94 patients (mean age 53.4 ± 7.8 years; 81 males). DSE results were non-ischemic in 83 (88.3 %), indeterminate in 9 (9.6 %), and ischemic in 2 (2.1 %) patients. Both ischemic and indeterminate cases had non-significant coronary disease. There were 10 deaths (10.6 %) in 30 days, one attributed to cardiac cause. Two MACES were recorded in DSE-negative patients (ACS, HF). Sensitivity of DSE for mortality prediction was 0 %, specificity 97.4 %, and NPV 89.2 %.Conclusion: DSE demonstrated high specificity but limited sensitivity in predicting short-term cardiac events in ESLD patients undergoing LT. The utility of DSE as a sole screening in this population appears limited.","PeriodicalId":13384,"journal":{"name":"Indian heart journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144274765","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Today, modern day DM and DNB Cardiology training needs to seamlessly amalgamate traditional teaching methodologies with the rapidly evolving technology based educational tools now available to us for personalized and adaptive learning. The contemporary cardiology curricula need to incorporate ALL components of clinical competency including cognitive, psychomotor and affective skills to enable the next generation of cardiologists to provide truly holistic care to their patients. In addition, a greater focus on impactful cardiology research with an intent to publish it while in training, is likely to encourage at least some of the young trainees to pursue careers in academia. Most importantly, the exit examination patterns need to be restructured. We need to decide whether we need cardiologists who simply follow textbooks and are trained in procedures -or we need those who have the ability to themselves write the next chapters in cardiology, have the precision of thought, the depth of empathy, and the courage to question.","PeriodicalId":13384,"journal":{"name":"Indian heart journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144198965","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite recent advancements in understanding MINOCA, its prognosis and predictors remain uncertain, necessitating further research into its pathogenesis. The diverse underlying causes of MINOCA mean that traditional treatment of the \"one-size-fits-all\" approach used for MICAD may not be appropriate, emphasizing the need for individualized treatment strategies based on accurate diagnosis. There is an urgent need to raise awareness among healthcare providers, implement standardized diagnostic protocols, and conduct targeted research to improve patient outcomes. Multi-centered studies and clinical trials are essential to establish evidence-based therapies and optimize management strategies for MINOCA, ensuring better long-term outcomes.","PeriodicalId":13384,"journal":{"name":"Indian heart journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144191726","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
