Journal ArticleDOI
Multislice computed tomography for detection of patients with aortic valve stenosis and quantification of severity.
Gudrun Feuchtner,Wolfgang Dichtl,Guy Friedrich,Mathias Frick,Hannes Alber,Thomas Schachner,Johannes Bonatti,Ammar Mallouhi,Thomas Frede,Otmar Pachinger,Dieter zur Nedden,Silvana Müller +11 more
TL;DR: Multislice computed tomography may provide an accurate, noninvasive imaging technique for detection of patients with AS and quantification of AVA in comparison to the accepted diagnostic standard transthoracic echocardiography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transvenous Pacemaker Lead Removal Is Safe and Effective Even in Large Vegetations: An Analysis of 53 Cases of Pacemaker Lead Endocarditis
Elfriede Ruttmann,Herbert Hangler,Juliane Kilo,Daniel Höfer,Ludwig Müller,Florian Hintringer,Silvana Müller,Günther Laufer,Herwig Antretter +8 more
TL;DR: The aim of this study was to investigate whether transvenous lead removal is safe and effective in patients with lead vegetations greater than 1 cm in size.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sixty-Four Slice CT Evaluation of Aortic Stenosis Using Planimetry of the Aortic Valve Area
Gudrun Feuchtner,Silvana Müller,Johannes Bonatti,Thomas Schachner,Corinna Velik-Salchner,Otmar Pachinger,Wolfgang Dichtl +6 more
TL;DR: MDCT allows accurate planimetry of the aortic valve area in patients with aorti stenosis and in patients referred for 64-slice CT coronary angiography, concomitant aortIC stenosis can be identified and evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Natriuretic Peptides as Markers of Mild Forms of Left Ventricular Dysfunction: Effects of Assays on Diagnostic Performance of Markers
Angelika Hammerer-Lercher,Wilma Ludwig,Gerda Falkensammer,Silvana Müller,Elke Neubauer,Bernd Puschendorf,Otmar Pachinger,Johannes Mair +7 more
TL;DR: The performance of BNP for the diagnosis of systolic or diastolic LVD is not affected by the assay used, whereas the performance of NT-proBNP for thediagnosis of isolated diastolics LVA is assay dependent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prognosis and Risk Factors in Patients With Asymptomatic Aortic Stenosis and Their Modulation by Atorvastatin (20 mg)
Wolfgang Dichtl,Hannes Alber,Gudrun Feuchtner,Florian Hintringer,Markus Reinthaler,Thomas Bartel,Alois Süssenbacher,Wilhelm Grander,Hanno Ulmer,Otmar Pachinger,Silvana Müller +10 more
TL;DR: TASS could demonstrate a poor clinical outcome in patients with asymptomatic calcified aortic stenosis which can be predicted by new risk factors such as strong AVC or increased plasma levels of CRP or NT-proBNP, but the study does not support the concept that treatment with a HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor (20 mg atorvastatin once daily) halts the progression of calcify aorta stenosis.
