Öğe Acute myocardial infarction shortly after valve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve implantation successfully managed with challenging percutaneous coronary intervention(Turkish Soc Cardiology, 2018) Yalta, Kenan; Kaya, Caglar; Aksoy, Yuksel; Yilmaztepe, Mustafa; Kardas, FatihIn recent years, transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has been considered a novel option for the management of surgically high-risk patients requiring aortic valve replacement. Presently described is a case of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) managed with a challenging primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) shortly after a valve-in-valve TAVI intervention. This case highlights 2 important issues: PCI may be an option for the management of coronary heart disease in patients after TAVI even in the setting of demanding features associated with coronary osteal engagement, and secondly, TAVI may serve as a potential risk factor for future coronary ischemic syndromes, largely due to its potential adverse effects on coronary flow dynamics, etc. However, the latter notion is quite speculative, and should be tested in further studies.Öğe Earthquakes and Acute Cardiovascular Conditions: A Focus on Takotsubo Syndrome(Galenos Publ House, 2023) Kardas, Fatih; Kaya, Caglar; Yalta, Kenan[Abstract Not Available]Öğe THE ETIOLOGY AND AGE-RELATED PROPERTIES OF PATIENTS WITH DELIRIUM IN CORONARY INTENSIVE CARE UNIT AND ITS EFFECTS ON INHOSPITAL AND FOLLOW UP PROGNOSIS(Literatura Medica, 2020) Altay, Servet; Gurdogan, Muhammet; Kaya, Caglar; Kardas, Fatih; Zeybey, Utku; Cakir, Burcu; Ebik, MustafaObjective - Delirium is a syndrome frequently encountered in intensive care and associated with a poor prognosis. Intensive care delirium is mostly based on general and palliative intensive care data in the literature. In this study, we aimed to investigate the incidence of delirium in coronary intensive care unit (CICU), related factors, its relationship with inhospital and follow up prognosis, incidence of age-related delirium and its effect on outcomes. Methods - This study was conducted with patients hospitalized in CICU of a tertiary university hospital between 01 August 2017 and 01 August 2018. Files of all patients were examined in details, and demographic, clinic and laboratory parameters were recorded. Patients confirmed with psychiatry consultation were included in the groups of patients who developed delirium. Patients were divided into groups with and without delirium developed, and baseline features, inhospital and follow up prognoses were investigated. In addition, patients were divided into four groups as <65 years old, 65-75 yo, 75-84 yo and> 85 yo, and the incidence of delirium, related factors and prognoses were compared among these groups. Results - A total of 1108 patients (mean age: 64.4 +/- 13.9 years; 66% men) who were followed in the intensive care unit with variable indications were included in the study. Of all patients 11.1% developed delirium in the CICU. Patients who developed delirium were older, comorbidities were more frequent, and these patients showed increased inflammation findings, and significant increase in inhospital mortality compared to those who did not develop delirium (p<0.05). At median 9-month follow up period, rehospitalization, reinfarction, cognitive dysfunction, initiation of psychiatric therapy and mortality were significantly higher in the delirium group (p<0.05). When patients who developed delirium were divided into four groups by age and analyzed, incidence of delirium and mortality rate in delirium group were significantly increased by age (p<0.05). Conclusion - Development of delirium in coronary intensive care unit is associated with increased inhospital and follow up morbidity and mortality. Delirium is more commonly seen in geriatric patients and those with comorbidity, and is associated with a poorer prognosis. High-risk patients should be more carefully monitored for the risk of delirium.Öğe The Inflammation-Based Glasgow Prognostic Score as a Prognostic Factor in Patients with Intensive Cardiovascular Care Unit(Mdpi, 2019) Altay, Servet; Gurdogan, Muhammet; Keskin, Muhammed; Kardas, Fatih; Cakir, BurcuBackground: The Glasgow prognostic score (GPS), which is obtained from a combination of C-reactive protein (CRP) and serum albumin level, predicts poor prognoses in many cancer types. Systemic inflammation also plays an important role in pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of inflammation-based GPS on in-hospital and long-term outcomes in patients hospitalized in intensive cardiovascular care unit (ICCU). Methods: A total of 1004 consecutive patients admitted to ICCU were included in the study, and patients were divided into three groups based on albumin and CRP values as GPS 0, 1, and 2. Patients' demographic, clinic, and laboratory findings were recorded. In-hospital and one-year mortality rates were compared between groups. Results: Mortality occurred in 109 (10.8%) patients in in-hospital period, 82 (8.1%) patients during follow-up period, and thus, cumulative mortality occurred in 191 (19.0%) patients. Patients with a high GPS score had a higher rate of comorbidities and represented increased inflammatory evidence. In the multivariate regression model there was independent association with in-hospital mortality in GPS 1 patients compared to GPS 0 patients (Odds ratio, (OR); 5.52, 95% CI: 1.2-16.91, p = 0.025) and in GPS 2 patients compared to GPS 0 patients (OR; 7.01, 95% CI: 1.39-35.15, p = 0.018). A higher GPS score was also associated with a prolonged ICCU and hospital stay, and increased re-hospitalization in the follow-up period. Conclusion: Inflammation based GPS is a practical tool in the prediction of worse prognosis both in in-hospital and one-year follow-up periods in ICCU patients.
