   Keywords : Myocardial injury; hypotension; machine learning; non-cardiac surgery; F1; Myokardiell skada; hypotension; maskininlärning; icke-kardiell kirurgi; F1;

   Abstract : Myocardial injury is the leading cause of death in Europe following non-cardiac surgery. Its causes, diagnosis, and treatment are still under investigation by the scientific community. Some research groups have hypothesized a connection between myocardial injury and hypotension during surgery. READ MORE

3. 2. Deep Learning for Prediction of Falling Blood Pressure During Surgery : Prediction of Falling Blood Pressure

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Navid Zandpour; [2022]
   Keywords : Arterial Blood Pressure; Convolutional Neural Network; Supervised Learning; Hypotension; Prediction; Arteriellt Blodtryck; Faltningsnätverk; Övervakad Inlärning; Hypotension; Prediktion;

   Abstract : Perioperative hypotension corresponds to critically low blood pressure events during the pre, intra and postoperative periods. It is a common side effect of general anaesthesia and is strongly associated with an increased risk of postoperative complications, such as acute kidney injury, myocardial injury and in the worst case death.

4. 3. The value of cardiac MRI texture analysis in patients with clinically suspected myocarditis

   University essay from

   Author : Evin Ina Papalini; [2021-05-10]
   Keywords : Medical physics; Myocarditis; Cardiac magnetic resonance; Texture analysis;

   Abstract : Purpose: The aim of this proof-of-concept study was to assess the diagnostic value of texture analysis (TA) based on conventional balanced steady-state-free precession (bSSFP), late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) and T2-weighted cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) in patients with clinically suspected myocarditis. Method: A retrospective cohort study was performed based on 30 patients who underwent a comprehensive CMRI due to clinically suspected myocarditis between 2013 and 2018 at the Sahlgrenska University Hospital: 10 patients with clinical signs and positive myocardial biomarkers (Troponin T, indicating myocardial injury) as well as positive CMRI findings according to Lake Louise Criteria (LLC; group 1), 10 patients with clinical signs and positive myocardial biomarkers but negative CMRI findings according to LLC (group 2), and 10 patients with clinical signs but both negative myocardial biomarkers as well as CMRI findings according to LLC (control group).
