Between 30 and 50% of patients who contract COVID 19 will be asymptomatic or oligosymptomatic. This fact will not give rise to the consult, and will directly affect a notorious sub-registration of the cases.
The second, even more disturbing, premise is that these patients are as contagious as the
Acute takotsubo cardiomyopathy is characterised by sudden onset left ventricular dysfunction precipitated by major stress. The researchers have shown that recovery is more protracted than previously appreciated, and is associated with persistent major morbidity and a long-term heart failure
Heart Failure
Heart Failure (HF) is a complex syndrome consequence of any structural or functional abnormality that impairs the capacity of filling or ejected of the heart. (1, 2).
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressive, systemic, and
Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) reduces physical function and muscle mass and increases fatigue. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), when used as a stand-alone intervention, improves muscle strength and muscle mass in non-cancer patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most common heart valve condition in the world. MR occurs when the mitral valve does not close properly, allowing blood to leak back into the upper chamber of the heart. As a result, the heart may try to pump harder in order to compensate for the decrease in blood
NAME OF THE RESEARCH: The Effectiveness of Inspiratory Muscle Training and Nintendo Wii Fit Applications in Elderly Patients with Heart Failure
JUSTIFICATION AND BASIS OF THE RESEARCH: Heart failure is a multisystem syndrome characterized by the body's inability to pump or increase the filling
Sleep breathing disorders are a frequent and serious health problem in the Polish population. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disorder. The essence of OSA is repeated episodes of airway obstruction that occur repeatedly during sleep, resulting in a decrease in the level of partial oxygen
Written informed consent must have been provided voluntarily by each subject before any study specific procedure is initiated.
A physical examination (including examination of heart, lungs, abdomen, neck and assessment of peripheral circulation and oedema) must be performed; vital signs (blood
Patients who are in stage II-III with sarcoidosis diagnosed pulmonary involvement who are admitted to the Department of Chest Diseases of Cerrahpaşa Medical Faculty Hospital of Istanbul University will be included in the 30-70 age group 6 months after systemic treatment or no treatment. Patients

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive and heterogeneous fibrotic lung disease. It is universally fatal, with an average time to death between two to five years.
Patients with IPF experience significantly diminished quality of life and increased symptom burden. Besides dyspnea, cough,
OBJECTIVE To evaluate changes in muscle architecture by ultrasound, before and after an intervention with physical exercise directed in water in frail individuals; and determine the correlation of the image findings with the changes detected in their morbidity, functionality and quality of

Setting Primary Care Centres belonging to the Autonomous Communities of Catalonia, (329), Madrid (262) and the Canary Islands (102).
Study Population: patients
Atrial fibrillation is the most frequent chronic arrhythmia with an increasing prevalence in developed and developing countries. Estimated number of individuals living with chronic atrial fibrillation is 33 million globally. In developed and developing countries, the number of elderly individuals
Heart failure (HF) is a growing epidemic related to significant morbidity and mortality.
The prevalence of the disease continuously increases due to the ageing population and success in treating cardiovascular diseases that often precede HF.
Lifetime risk of HF is still high with 20-45% and strongly
