Clinical and echographical control protocol of haemarthrosis in haemophilia patients with inhibitors: evaluation of the efficacy of recombinant facto…

2008

Summary.  The intention of the ‘clinical and echographical protocol of evaluation the efficacy of recombinant activated factor VII in the haemarthrosis’ (EFFISEVEN protocol) was to provide an extensive study of the evolution of haemarthrosis, and second, of its repercussions on the degenerative process of joints. The clinical evaluation of haemarthroses and their evolution is based on a well-established methodology, although very few studies have sought to determine the correlation between pain, mobility and the objective data regarding the haemorrhage. We believe that it is necessary to unify criteria and that the EFFISEVEN protocol may contribute data that improve standards which, in turn…

Progression From Paroxysmal to Persistent Atrial Fibrillation. Clinical Correlates and Prognosis

2010

Objectives: We investigated clinical correlates of atrial fibrillation (AF) progression and evaluated the prognosis of patients demonstrating AF progression in a large population. Background: Progression of paroxysmal AF to more sustained forms is frequently seen. However, not all patients will progress to persistent AF. Methods: We included 1,219 patients with paroxysmal AF who participated in the Euro Heart Survey on AF and had a known rhythm status at follow-up. Patients who experienced AF progression after 1 year of follow-up were identified. Results: Progression of AF occurred in 178 (15%) patients. Multivariate analysis showed that heart failure, age, previous transient ischemic attac…
