Journal ArticleDOI
Prediction of mortality and morbidity with a 6-minute walk test in patients with left ventricular dysfunction. SOLVD Investigators
Vera Bittner,Debra H. Weiner,Salim Yusuf,William J. Rogers,Kevin M. McIntyre,Shrikant I. Bangdiwala,Marvin W. Kronenberg,John B. Kostis,Robert M. Kohn,Maureen Guillotte,Barry Greenberg,Patricia A. Woods,Martial G. Bourassa +12 more
TL;DR: The 6-minute walk test is a safe and simple clinical tool that strongly and independently predicts morbidity and mortality in patients with left ventricular dysfunction.
Journal ArticleDOI
The hemodynamic response to pulmonary embolism in patients without prior cardiopulmonary disease
TL;DR: The hemodynamic status of 20 patients free of prior cardiopulmonary disease was related to the degree of pulmonary embolic obstruction estimated by selective pulmonary angiography, suggesting that angiographically detectable emboli virtually do not occur without producing systemic hypoxemia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relation of neurohumoral activation to clinical variables and degree of ventricular dysfunction: A report from the registry of studies of left ventricular dysfunction
Claude R. Benedict,David E. Johnstone,Debra H. Weiner,Martial G. Bourassa,Vera Bittner,Richard Kay,Philip C. Kirlin,Barry H. Greenberg,Robert M. Kohn,John M. Nicklas,Kevin M. McIntyre,Miguel A. Quinones,Salim Yusuf +12 more
TL;DR: Neurohumoral activation in patients with heart failure is related to severity of left ventricular functional depression, and this relation is independent of functional class or concomitant drug therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
The electrocardiogram in acute pulmonary embolism
Paul D. Stein,James E. Dalen,Kevin M. McIntyre,Arthur A. Sasahara,Nanette K. Wenger,Park W. Willis +5 more
TL;DR: Hemodynamic correlations, made for the first time in patients, suggest that acute ventricular dilatation, possibly in combination with hypoxemia, is a causative factor of the electrocardiographic changes in acute massive or submassive pulmonary embolism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of quality of life as observed from the baseline data of the Studies of Left Ventricular Dysfunction (SOLVD) trial quality-of-life substudy.
Larry Gorkin,Nancy Norvell,Raymond C. Rosen,Ed Charles,Sally A. Shumaker,Kevin M. McIntyre,Robert J. Capone,John B. Kostis,Raymond Niaura,Patricia A. Woods,James D. Hosking,Carlos Garces,Eileen M. Handberg,David K. Ahern,Michael J. Follick +14 more
TL;DR: By demonstrating strong internal consistencies, reliability based on physician reports, and independence of ejection fraction levels, use of this quality-of-life assessment battery in this and other clinical trials of compromised ventricular functioning is supported.
