Öğe The association between mean platelet volume and coronary collateral circulation(Verduci Publisher, 2013) Islamoglu, Y.; Ertas, F.; Acet, H.; Elbey, M. A.; Evliyaogllu, O.; Tekbas, E.; Cil, H.BACKGROUND: Platelets are important in the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic complications. Higher mean platelet volume (MPV) levels are related to greater in vitro aggregation, and have been identified as an independent risk factor for myocardial infarction, and for death or recurrent vascular events. AIM: To determine the relationship between MPV and the coronary collateral circulation. METHODS: The sample consisted of 96 patients with coronary artery disease, and patients were separated into two groups according to their poorly developed or well-developed collateral circulation. Coronary collateral vessels were analyzed according to the Cohen and Rentrop grading system of 0-3. RESULTS: All analyses were conducted using SPSS 11.5 (SPSS for Windows 11.5, Chicago, IL, USA). Continuous variables were expressed as mean +/- SD, and categorical variables were expressed as percentages. Comparison of categorical and continuous variables between the group with well-developed coronary collateral vessels and the group with poorly developed vessels was performed using the chi-squared test and independent samples t-test, respectively. Platelet count and MPV values were similar between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS: Our study found that MPV levels are not related to coronary collateral circulation.Öğe ENTRAPPED THROMBUS IN PATENT FORAMEN OVALE COMPLICATED BY PULMONARY EMBOLISM(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2011) Elbey, M.

A.[Abstract Not Available]Öğe The medical approaching to a pellet injury of the heart(Verduci Publisher, 2012) Elbey, M. A.; Yavuz, C.; Cil, H.; Islamoglu, Y.A 55-year-old man with multiple pellet injuries was brought to the Emergency room. In his physical examination, there were multiple wounds in face, neck, shoulders, arms, thorax and upper abdomen. The therapeutic options include pericardial drainage, conservative treatment, and surgical removal of the pellet. But, he was successfully managed with conservative medical treatment. This case showed that the treatment of heart injuries due to shotgun pellet should be individualized.Öğe Noncompaction of the left ventricular myocardium diagnosed during ventriculography(Verduci Publisher, 2012) Elbey, M. A.; Atilgan, Z.; Kaya, H.; Ertas, F.[Abstract Not Available]Öğe QTc prolongation and torsade de pointes ventricular tachycardia in a small dose voriconazole therapy(Verduci Publisher, 2012) Elbey, M. A.; Cil, H.; Onturk, E.; Islamoglu, Y.Torsade de pointes (TdP) is a life-threatening arrhythmia that can result from long QT syndrome. Drug-induced QT prolongation is a potentially dangerous adverse effect of some drug combinations. A 34-year-old woman with history of nephrotic syndrome and rheumatic mitral valve disease was admitted to our Hospital because of high fever. The patient continued to be febrile until antifungal treatment was switched to voriconazole. The electrocardiogram demonstrated sinus tachycardia and a prolonged QTc interval of 580 ms. Patient was resuscitated with electrical cardioversion and had an emergent temporary pacemaker placed. We recommend careful monitoring for QTc prolongation and arrhythmia in patients who are receiving voriconazole, particularly those who have significant electrolyte disturbances.Öğe Relation of interatrial duration and p wave terminal force as a novel indicator of severe mitral regurgitation(Verduci Publisher, 2012) Elbey, M. A.; Oylumlu, M.; Akil, A.; Demirtas, S.; Ertas, F.; Erdogan, E.; Tasal, A.OBJECTIVES: Interatrial duration is defined as prolonged p wave on electrocardiogram. p waves with a negative terminal phase recorded in V1 enclosing an area of one small square on the electrocardiogram is significantly and strongly correlated with interatrial duration. The aim of study was to investigate whether interatrial duration with p terminal force can be used as reflection of echocardiographic severity of mitral regurgitation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixty two consecutive patients with mitral regurgitation. were prospectively studied. Age/gender matched 57 subjects who had normal mitral structure and did not have mitral regurgitation. Patients with mitral regurgitation referred to a single cardiac center for echocardiography and who met the entry criteria documented moderate or severe mitral regurgitation with sinus were included. The interatrial duration was defined on the routine 12-lead electrocardiogram (50 mm/s, 10 mm/mV) using the greatest duration of p waves from D2, D3, AVF and V1. RESULTS: There was a positive correlation between interatrial duration (>= 110 ms) and effective regurgitant orifice (r = 0.3, p < 0.001). However, left atrial diameter and brain natriuretic peptide were significantly higher in cases with mitral regurgitation. There was also strong correlation between interatrial duration (>= 110 ms) and p terminal force and left atrial diameter. ROC analysis revealed that interatrial duration of > 110 msec. could predict of severe mitral regurgitation with 88% sensitivity and 100% specificity. CONCLUSIONS: Severe mitral regurgitation, left atrial diameter was correlated with p terminal force and interatrial duration. Significant interatrial duration (>= 110 ms) and p terminal force might be considered as novel indicators of severe mitral regurgitation.Öğe SAFETY AND EFFICACY OF IBUTILIDE DURING ATRIAL FIBRILLATION ABLATION(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2011) Aktas, M.
