    Kurzfassung: OBJECTIVE:The goal of this study is to predict the long term LV function in RV apical paced patients. BACKGROUND:We have used the GLS measured by 2D STE, as a tool to predict the patients who are at high risk of developing pacing induced LV dysfunction (PIVD) or pacing induced cardiomyopathy (PCMP). METHOD: A prospective study conducted in the cardiology departmen t of Government Rajaji Hospital, Madurai, including 47 patients of AV block or sinus node dysfunction with preserved ejection fraction undergoing RV apical pacing. This study population was followed up with serial trans thoracic 2D echocardiography with GLS by STE for a period of 12 months for the development of PIVD (PCMP). RESULTS: Of the study population, 42.5% (n=20) developed PIVD at 12 months and these patients had a signicant fall in their GLS values at one month post pacing. (GLS -16.94% vs -17.60%; p=0.02). CONCLUSION: GLS, a novel echocardiographic parameter can be used as a tool in predicting the decline in ejection fraction following pacemaker implantation with potential to predict the development of PIVD. GLS at one month post pacing had a high predictive accuracy for identifying those who developed PIVD later in the follow up.

    Kurzfassung: Background: Febrile thrombocytopenia due to various etiologies is very common in India. Its clinical manifestations range from asymptomatic infections to severe disease. Cardiac involvement in such systemic illness should be evaluated. Aim of present study is to evaluate cardiac involvement in patients with Febrile thrombocytopenia with platelets count less than 50,000/µL with the help of handheld echocardiography.Methods: Two hundred patients who had fever with thrombocytopenia were enrolled in the study. ECG and echocardiogram were done to all the patients. One-way ANOVA, Chi square test and correlation coefficient from Pearson correlation and P value of 〈 0.05 was taken as significant.Results: Out of 200 patients there were 146 males and 56 females. The mean age was 24.12yrs in males 28.32yrs in females .Rhythm abnormalities were present in 60 patients and the most common abnormality was sinus tachycardia; 17 patients had ascites and right pleural effusion; 24 patients presented with pericardial effusion and incidental diagnosis of CHD, RHD, and CAD were made; two patients had myocarditis as evidenced by global hypokinesia of left ventricle. All of those cardiac manifestations were common in Dengue Shock Syndrome.Conclusions: Cardiovascular manifestation in Febrile thrombocytopenia is relatively common ranging from pericarditis to myocarditis. Clinician should routinely screen patients with pyrexia with thrombocytopenia for cardiac manifestations. Early diagnosis at bed side may improve the outcome. Management of patients with pre-existing cardiac diseases should be individualized.

    Kurzfassung: Background: Acute myocardial infarction (MI) is a significantly raising problem particularly in India. The various aspects of myocardial infarction such as risk factor profiles, clinical presentations and prognosis differ significantly in south Indian people when compared to others. This study was undertaken to study the association of socio-demographic and life-style factors with acute myocardial infarction in South India.Material: This was a prospective study included 100 patients admitted in ICCU for acute MI in Government Rajaji Hospital Madurai over a period of 1 year. History, ECG, CPK-MB, and 2-D Echo was done to diagnose MI.Results: In this study, 68% patients were males. In this study, 34% patients had diabetes, 42% had hypertension, 58% were smokers. In our study 70% patients had BMI between 25-30kg/m2. In this study, 86% patients had TGL more than 200mg/dl, 28% patients had LDL more than 100 mg/dl and 78% patients had NON-HDL more than 130 mg/dl. In this study, 9 patients had depression. In our study 61% male patients had waist hip ratio more than 〉 1 and in females 69% patients had waist hip ratio more than 〉 0.85. In our study, 22% patients had hemoglobin 〉 16g/dl.Conclusion: Prevention of coronary artery syndrome by modifying the risk factors were crucial. Serum cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, BMI were not significant to predict ACS in our study Waist Hip ratio, Triglyceride, Non-HDL cholesterol, smoking and Depression were significant to predict acute coronary syndrome in this study.
