Many of these patients develop venous leg ulcer as a sequel of the disease. In advance chronic venous disease such as development of ulcer, single or multilayer dressings are usually used. \u0000Objective: To find out a compression therapy (single layer crepe/short stretch bandage and multilayer/four layer bandage) in patients with venous leg ulcer. Materiel & Methods: This study was conducted on 200 patients with in last two years, march 2017 to february 2019 at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Department of vascular surgery. In which 100 patients with venous leg ulcer where treated with four layer bandage and another 100 patients with same condition were treated with single layer crepe bandage. Before application of bandage, proper history of patient was taken and duplex scan was done. The primary outcome was measured by time duration of ulcer healing. Secondary outcome included incidence and number of adverse events in every patient. Results: Healing time of venous ulcers was accessed with periodic interval. The four layer bandage was associated with significantly shorter time of healing. P value reached from unpaired t-test. Primary outcome shows 68% of patients who received four layer bandages achieved healing within one month. On the other hand, 12% of patients who received single layer/crepe bandage did so. \u0000Conclusion: Four layer bandages heals venous leg ulcer more rapidly than the single layer crape bandage. These data suggest that the benefits observed the consistent despite prognosis is different. Patients with large ulcers have poor healing prognosis regardless of its treatment modalities. \u0000University Heart Journal Vol. 16, No. 2, Jul 2020; 78-85","PeriodicalId":23424,"journal":{"name":"University Heart Journal","volume":"57 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87558017","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}

Clinical trials have demonstrated mortality and morbidity benefits of mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) in patients with heart failure. These studies have used either eplerenone or spironolactone as the MRA. Eplerenone is a selective aldosterone antagonist expected to have a lower incidence of hormonal side effects than spironolactone. The present study is designed to compare these two drugs in chronic heart failure patients as no head to head trial between these two drugs is found regarding improvement of systolic function, tolerability and safety. The aim of this study is to compare the effects of eplerenone and spironolactone on LV systolic function in patients with chronic heart failure in a single center. \u0000Methods:It was a randomized clinical trial single blind study. A total of 224 cases of chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and NYHA class III or IV were selected by random sampling, from July 2017 to June 2018. Each patient was randomly allocated into either of the two arms, and was continued receiving treatment with either spironolactone (Arm-I) or eplerenone(Arm-II). Each patient was evaluated clinically, biochemically and echocardiographically at the beginning of treatment (baseline) at 1 month and at the end of 6th month. Echocardiography was performed to find out change in left ventricular systolic function. \u0000Result: After 6 months of treatment, ejection fraction was found higher in the eplerenonearm (40.3 ± 6.5 versus 38.3 ± 4.6%; P < 0.05). Ejection fraction (EF) changes were 6.2% in eplerenone group and 4.1% in spironolactonearm. A significant reduction in left ventricular end-systolic volume (21.9±2.5 in group I versus 14.9±5.7 in group II; P < 0.05) and left ventricular systolic diameter (48.7±4.0 in arm I versus 45.2±4.9 in arm II; P<0.05) occurred after 6 months of treatment. But no significant differences were observed in left ventricular end-diastolic volume (187.8±37.4 versus 184.5±33.9; P=0.101) and left ventricular diastolic diameter (60.1±4.5 versus 61.0±4.9; P=0.0818) between arms. Assessment of blood pressure six months after treatment shows, systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were improved in both arms but difference between two arms were statistically non-significant (p>0.05). \u0000Conclusion: In this study, the improvement in systolic function was more in eplerenone arm, which also had fewer adverse side effects when compared to spironolactone arm. So, it can be concluded that eplerenone can be advised in patient with chronic heart failure in addition to other drugs that are used to treat heart failure. \u0000University Heart Journal Vol. 16, No. 2, Jul 2020; 65-70","PeriodicalId":23424,"journal":{"name":"University Heart Journal","volume":"36 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74550605","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}

For the diagnosis of coronary artery disease, the 12 leads electrocardiogram (ECG) is the most readily available non invasive test by which, in addition of diagnosis, localizing and estimating the size of myocardial ischemia can be determined. Abnormally high QT dispersion has been correlated with risk of arrhythmic death in various cardiac diseases including CAD. An increase in QTd is reported to predict the occurrence of life-threatening ventricular tachyarrhythmias and sudden cardiac death in patients with ischemic heart disease. Materials and Methods: This Cross sectional analytical study was conducted in Department of Cardiology, National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases, Dhaka from January 2013 to December 2013. A total of 100 consecutive patients with angina based on predefined enrollment criteria were included in the study. .All patients were evaluated by history, clinical examination, biochemical analysis, and coronary angiogram (CAG) which was performed during index hospital admission. PCI was done only if the vessel was significantly stenosed.i,e. for LMCA e”50%, for LAD, LCX and RCA it was e”70% as significant stenosis. Severity of stenosis of the involved vessels were categorized as severe( e”90%) and moderate(<90%). Results: Among the study population 76 (76%) patients were male and 24 (24%) patients were female. The left anterior descending artery (LAD) group comprised 37 patients and there were significant differences between before and after PCI QTc dispersion (90.5±38.9 vs 70.4±39.6 ms, p=0.001). The left circumflex artery (LCX) group was comprised of 6 patients and there were significant differences between before and after PCI QTc dispersion (62.2±41.9 vs 50.2±37.2 ms, p=0.001). The right coronary artery (RCA) group consisted of 18 patients, there being significant differences between before and after PCI QTc dispersion (84.9±40.7 vs 69.1±41.5 ms, p=0.001) Conclusion: PCI reduces QTc dispersion significantly among patients with angina. This QTc dispersion change is not influenced by sex, smoking, beta-blockers, hypertension, diabetes, renal impairment, stable or unstable angina but it depends upon the severity of coronary artery stenosis, involvement of coronary vessel and number of vessels.Reduction of QTc dispersion is a good sign of successful PCI that indicates successful reperfusion which carries an excellent prognostic value of revascularization.Further long term follow up will establish it.","PeriodicalId":23424,"journal":{"name":"University Heart Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"33-39"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82368115","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}

ACS patients with renal impairment during hospitalization are associated with adverse in-hospital outcomes in the form of heart failure, cardiogenic shock, arrhythmia, dialysis requirement and mortality. Objective: To compare the in-hospital adverse outcomesof patients with ACS with or without AKI.Materials and Methods: This prospective comparative study was conducted in the Department of Cardiology, BSMMU, Dhaka, during the period of August 2017 to July 2018. A total of 70 eligible patients were included in this study of which 35 patients were included in group A (ACS with AKI) and 35 patients were included in group B (ACS without AKI). AKI was diagnosed, on the basis of increased serum creatinine level 0.3mg/dL from baseline within 48 hours after hospitalization. They were subjected to electrocardiography, blood test for serum creatinine (on admission, 12 hours, 48 hours and at the time of discharge), lipid profile, 2-D echocardiography along with serum troponin, CK MB and electrolytes. Results: It was observed that mean age was 58.0±8.5 years in group A and 55.6±12.3 years in group B. Heart failure was more common in group A than in Group B (74.3% vs 34.2% p=0.001 respectively) and arrhythmia was more common in group A than in Group B (100% vs 74.2% respectively). 7(20%) patients of group A required dialysis. The mean duration of hospital stay was significantly higher in Group A than in the Group B (9.4±2.3 vs 7.2±0.6; p=0.001) days. Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that heart failure, cardiogenic shock, duration of hospital stay were found to be the independently significant predictors of outcome of the patients with AKI with odds ratio being 5.53 (p=0.001), 4.353 (p=0.001) and 6.92 (p=0.001) Conclusion: This study shows that, heart failure, cardiogenic shock, arrhythmia, dialysis requirement, were more common in the patients with AKI (group A) than in the patients without AKI (group B).
