Background: Pulmonary embolism (PE) is one of the three leading causes of cardiovascular mortality worldwide. In early 2026, the American Heart Association (AHA) and the American College of Cardiology (ACC), in collabora...
According to the 2025 recommendations of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and the 2024 consensus statement of the American College of Cardiology (ACC), multimodality imaging has become the cornerstone in the diag...
A 79-year-old male with a history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, and two-vessel coronary artery disease, previously treated with percutaneous coronary intervention of the left circumflex artery one mon...
Atrial septal defect is commonly treated with percutaneous closure due to its high efficacy and safety; however, late complications may still occur. We report a case of a 49-year-old male who underwent closure of a secun...
Mitral stenosis (MS) remains one of the most prevalent valvular heart diseases in Vietnam, predominantly attributable to rheumatic heart disease sequelae. Percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty (PBMV) is the preferred...
We report a case of a 63-year-old female patient diagnosed with a large secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) (22×29 mm) accompanied by symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) (EHRA class III), moderate-to-severe p...
Background: Severe coronary artery calcification (SCAC) remains one of the most challenging lesion subsets in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), affecting approximately 20–30% of patients undergoing coronary revas...
Objective: To determine the mortality rate, 1-year survival rate, and related factors in patients with PH due to left-sided valvular disease. Methods: A descriptive longitudinal cohort study (retrospective and prospectiv...
Objective: To evaluate right ventricular function using echocardiography in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) complicated by cardiogenic shock, and to investigate the association between ri...
Objective: Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is an important marker of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Although echocardiography is the diagnostic standard, its limited availability in many Asian settings—includ...
Objective: To describe the clinical and paraclinical characteristics and high-sensitivity Troponin I (Troponin I hs) levels in patients with acute ischemic stroke at Bach Mai Hospital. Methods: A cross-sectional descrip...
Objective: To describe the clinical and paraclinical characteristics of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and to compare differences between two age groups: patients aged ≥80 years and those aged
Objective: To determine the prevalence of prehypertension and hypertension and to identify associated factors among relatives of cardiovascular patients receiving treatment at the Department of Cardiology, Thanh Hoa Gene...
Objective: To evaluate the association between epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) thickness on echocardiography and left ventricular diastolic function (LVDF) in patients with hypertension (HTN). Methods: A cross-sectional...
Objectives: To evaluate the association between admission hyperglycemia and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) within 6 months in patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing percutaneous coronary interve...
Objectives: To evaluate short-term and mid-term outcomes of systemic Alteplase thrombolysis in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (APE) treated at the Vietnam National Heart Institute – Bach Mai Hospital. Methods: A...
Objective: To investigate the association between SCAI classification and 30-day and 3-month mortality in patients hospitalized for acute decompensated heart failure at the Vietnam National Heart Institute – Bach Mai Hos...
