Journal ArticleDOI
Safety and efficacy of a new transpulmonary ultrasound contrast agent: initial multicenter clinical results.
Steven B. Feinstein,Jorge Cheirif,Folkert J. Ten Cate,Paul R. Silverman,Paul R. Silverman,Paul A. Heidenreich,Candace Dick,Ranley M. Desir,William F. Armstrong,Miguel A. Quinones,Pravin M. Shah +10 more
TL;DR: The safety and preliminary efficacy of intravenous injections of Albunex were well tolerated and no serious side effects were noted in any of the patients, and the degree of ventricular cavity opacification appeared to be dose and concentration related.
Journal ArticleDOI
Opacification and border delineation improvement in patients with suboptimal endocardial border definition in routine echocardiography: results of the Phase III Albunex Multicenter Trial.
Linda Crouse,Jorge Cheirif,Denise E. Hanly,Joseph Kisslo,Arthur J. Labovitz,Joel S. Raichlen,Ronald W. Schutz,Pravin M. Shah,Mikel D. Smith +8 more
TL;DR: In patients with incomplete echocardiographic endocardial definition, sonicated human serum albumin is a safe, effective contrast agent that, when administered intravenously, produces left ventricular chamber opacification, improves endocardIAL depiction and enhances regional wall motion analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dobutamine stress echocardiography for assessing coronary artery disease after transplantation in children.
Ranae L. Larsen,Patricia M Applegate,Dan Dyar,Paulo A Ribeiro,Sharon D. Fritzsche,Neda F. Mulla,Girish S Shirali,Micheal A Kuhn,Richard E. Chinnock,Pravin M. Shah +9 more
TL;DR: DSE is a feasible, safe and accurate screening method for TxCAD in children and predicts short-term freedom from such events, as well as identifying patients at increased risk of TXCAD-related cardiac events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Echocardiographic diagnosis of mitral valve prolapse.
TL;DR: It is hoped that this or a similar classification would clarify some of the confusion surrounding the diagnosis of mitral valve prolapse and result in better anatomic correlations of the echocardiographic findings in this condition and potentially result in improved patient care.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diastolic heart failure.
Pravin M. Shah,Ramdas G. Pai +1 more
TL;DR: Although no single laboratory test is identified for making a confident diagnosis of diastolic dysfunction as the pathogenetic mechanism for heart failure, a constellation of echocardiographic and radionuclear findings are helpful in most cases.
