Catheters are used to measure translesional pressure gradients in the stenosed coronary arteries. Catheter insertions during coronary angioplasty cause flow obstructions. A narrowed flow cross section with catheter present effectively introduced a tighter stenosis than the enlarged residual stenoses after balloon angiplasty. In general, the form of stenoses are no uniform. Sometimes, these are occurred the irregularly eccentricity If the analyses are conducted for uniform stenosed artery, the results will be underestimated. Thus, in this study, three dimensional computer simulations are conducted to investigate the flow blockage effects due to the catheter insertion during the coronary angioplasty. The results for the eccentric stenosed artery are compared with those of the concentric stenosed artery.

Computational modeling is presented to investigate the hemodynamics of coronary circulation for the cardiac arrest model during the operation of an ECLS called T-PLS. A lumped parameter model is utilized to delineate the hemodynamics of coronary circulation. For verification of the present method, we compute the coronary circulation for normal case and compare those results with the existing data. Numerical results on the cardiac arrest model show that T-PLS can increase LAD flow significantly.

Isolated anomalous right coronary artery originating from the pulmonary artery (ARCAPA) is a rare congenital coronary anomaly that is asymptomatic and discovered incidentally in most cases. ARCAPA is generally not considered a fatal defect in infancy or childhood, although cases of sudden death have been reported. Here, we report a 2-month-old female infant who presented with a prolonged fever that was determined to be caused by rhinovirus infection. Myocardial ischemia of the left ventricular posterior wall was already seen on echocardiography, and ARCAPA was discovered incidentally. The patient underwent successful surgical reimplantation of the right coronary artery to the aortic root to re-establish dual ostial circulation.

Coronary artery diseases are very important agenda in the insurance medicine. Insurance medicine is defined as using medical knowledge for insurance administration such as underwriting, claims, and customer satisfaction. This review article contains review of coronary artery disease in terms of insurance medicine. Estimation of extra-risks for acute myocardial infarction are MR of 349% and EDR of 41‰. In medical underwriting, individual life applicants can be assessed by Framingham's CHD risk assessment model. In claims, medical claims review is a useful method of consulting for claims staffs. Several diagnostic criteria of acute myocardial infarction are introduced in time. The universal definition of myocardial infarction by ESC/ACCF/WHF was demonstrated the most valuable predictor of 10-year mortality. Contents for State-Of-The-Art of the coronary artery disease are current antithrombotics. There are many novel anti-thrombotic agents such as ticagrelol, dabigatran, rivaroxaban, and pegnivacogin.

27세 남자 환자가 오토바이 사고로 인한 급성전벽 심근경색증으로 내원하였다. 흉부에 손상의 흔적은 없었으며 심초음파검사상 전벽의 이상운동증과 미미한 심낭삼출액이 보였다. 관상동맥조영술상 좌전하행지 근위부에 박리가 있었고, 좌심실조영술상 심첨부에 좌심실류 및 혈전이 관찰되어 관상동맥우회술을 시행하였다.

We report a redo coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in a 55-year-old man. Angina recurred 7 years after the initial surgery. Coronary angiography showed all patent grafts except a faint visualization of the in situ right gastroepiploic artery (RGEA) graft, which was anastomosed to the posterior descending coronary artery, associated with celiac axis stenosis. Redo-CABG was performed at postoperative 10 years because of aggravated angina and decreased perfusion of the inferior wall in the myocardial single photon emission computed tomography. The saphenous vein graft was interposed between the 2 in situ grafts used previously; the right internal thoracic artery and RGEA grafts. Angina was relieved and myocardial perfusion was improved.

The incidence of single coronary artery is extremely rare in a review of congenital anomalies of the coronary arteries. This 27-year-old male patient was referred for the evaluation of cardiac condition showing exertional dyspnea[NYHA class II-III] and chest discomfort for about 1 year. A complete catheterization study including angiogram disclosed large single coronary artery arising from left aortic sinus [Ogden classification L-4] associated with bicuspid aortic valvular stenosis and low grade supravalvular aortic stenosis. Calcified stenotic aortic valve was fully removed with caution and the 19mm St. Jude Medical valve was then implanted in the small nortic annulus. The patient had an uneventful recovery and was discharged on 13th postoperative day.

The radial artery is generally the preferred access route in coronary angiography and coronary intervention. However, small size, spasm, and anatomical variations concerning the radial artery are major limitations of transradial coronary intervention (TRI). We describe a successful case involving a patient with coronary artery disease who underwent TRI via a well-developed radial recurrent artery branch from the radioulnar alpha loop using a sheathless guiding catheter.

Purpose: This study investigated the mediating effect of perceived stress in the relationship between subjective health and depression in patients with coronary artery disease. Methods: This secondary analysis study used data from the 2016-2018 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES). Study participants included 466 patients over 20 years of age with coronary artery disease. Measures included questions about general characteristics, subjective health, perceived stress, and depression. The data were analyzed using complex sample design, descriptive analysis, Rao-Scott ��2 statistic, and multivariate logistic regression analysis with the SPSS 24.0 program. Results: Subjective health influenced depression, and perceived stress partially mediated it. Conclusion: To prevent depression in patients with coronary artery disease, it is necessary to develop effective stress management strategies.
