Journal ArticleDOI
Usefulness of Pulse-Wave Doppler Tissue Sampling and Dobutamine Stress Echocardiography for the Diagnosis of Right Coronary Artery Narrowing
Riccardo Rambaldi,Don Poldermans,Paolo M. Fioretti,Folkert J. ten Cate,Wim B. Vletter,Jeroen J. Bax,Jos R.T.C. Roelandt +6 more
TL;DR: Pulse-wave Doppler tissue sampling during DSE was able to diagnose significant RCA narrowing and provided analyzable data in 100%, whereas the visual assessment of gray-scale images was possible only in 90%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cost-effectiveness of differing perioperative beta-blockade strategies in vascular surgery patients.
TL;DR: Perioperative beta-blockade is both cost effective as well as efficacious from a short-term provider perspective, although the optimal strategy of treatment for patients who do not present to surgery already on Beta-blockers requires further study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiac chronotropic responsiveness to beta-adrenoceptor stimulation is not reduced in the elderly
Don Poldermans,Eric Boersma,Paolo M. Fioretti,Hero van Urk,Frans Boomsma,Arie J. Man in 't Veld +5 more
TL;DR: No evidence for reduced beta-adrenoceptor responsiveness to dobutamine was found in "healthy" elderly subjects and this phenomenon could be explained by a decrease in efferent cardiac baroreflex sensitivity, as has been observed during acute myocardial ischemia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Association of COPD with carotid wall intima-media thickness in vascular surgery patients
Yvette R.B.M. van Gestel,Willem-Jan Flu,Jan-Peter van Kuijk,Sanne E. Hoeks,Jeroen J. Bax,Don D. Sin,Don Poldermans +6 more
TL;DR: Investigation of the association between COPD and carotid wall intima-media thickness (IMT) in patients undergoing vascular surgery and its relationship with mortality in patients with COPD suggests that carOTid wall measurements may be a good biomarker for morbidity and mortality in these patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Agreement and disagreement between "metabolic viability" and "contractile reserve" in akinetic myocardium.
Jan H. Cornel,Jeroen J. Bax,Abdou Elhendy,Frans C. Visser,Eric Boersma,Don Poldermans,Gernt W. Sloof,Paolo M. Fioretti +7 more
TL;DR: A substantial number of segments with preserved viability on SPECT do not exhibit contractile reserve, indicating underestimation of viability by dobutamine echocardiography compared with F18-fluorodeoxyglucose imaging.
