Cardiac amyloidosis is an infiltrative restrictive cardiomyopathy secondary to extracellular amyloid deposition. Di - fferent cardiac imaging techniques allow noninvasive evaluation. Echocardiography plays a central role in diagnos-tic and prognostic evaluation and helps to guide treatment. The aim of this review is to describe the different tools provided by echocardiography, with emphasis on speckle tracking strain and to describe its role in the diagnosis of this pathology.

Introduction: anemia and iron deficiency are frequent in candidates for cardiac surgery and are associated with poorer postoperative results. Its therapeutic approach is not standardized. There are no local data on prevalence and prognosis. Objective: to assess whether non-severe anemia and iron deficiency are associated with poorer postoperative re - sults in elective cardiac surgery in our patients. Method: prospective cohort study in two centers. Patients > 18 years of age who underwent elective cardiac surgery were included. Three groups were formed: 1) control, 2) isolated iron deficiency and 3) non-severe anemia. Preopera - tive, intraoperative and postoperative clinical and paraclinical outcomes were recorded. Univariate and multivaria - te analyzes were performed to determine statistical significance (p < 0.05). Results: 167 patients were included, 68 years [60-74], 61.68% men. Mean LVEF 59% [45-60], EuroSCORE II 0.96 [0.76-1.35]. 96 revascularizations (57.49%), 39 valve replacements (23.35%) and 30 combined (17.96%), one throm-bectomy and one aortic tube were carried out. The prevalence of isolated iron deficiency was 15.57%, total anemia 40.72% and anemia and/or iron deficiency 56.29%. The control group had fewer days of hospitalization (p = 0.0018) and the ferropenia group needed more red blood cells transfusions (p = 0.045). In the univariate analysis, groups 2 and 3 were associated with higher compound postoperative events (OR 2.86, p = 0.03, and OR 2.11, p = 0.03, respec - tively). Group 3 was associated with a higher probability of postoperative infection (OR 8.63, 1.03-72.12, p = 0.049). In the multivariate analysis, the hematocrit values were associated with renal failure (OR 1.14, 95% CI 1.02-1.28, p = 0.02). Conclusions: the prevalence of non-severe anemia and iron deficiency was high, it was associated with greater complications in the postoperative period and a longer hospital stay. It is necessary to protocolize its therapeutic approach.

Resumen La tecnología digital móvil (mSalud), recurso aún subutilizado, tiene el potencial para transformarse en un auxiliar imprescindible en la práctica clínica, en particular en Cardiología. La fibrilación auricular es la arritmia más frecuente, cuya prevalencia aumenta con la edad y tiene como complicación más temida el accidente cerebrovascular. Su prevención depende de un diagnóstico oportuno, una adecuada estratificación de riesgo y el uso de anticoagulantes orales. Sin embargo, es con frecuencia paroxística y asintomática, lo que dificulta su diagnóstico. El aporte de la tecnología mediante el desarrollo de aplicaciones para celulares, relojes, dispositivos portátiles o implantables que registran el ritmo cardíaco y permiten el monitoreo prolongado, ambulatorio y a distancia facilitan su detección. Se repasan las principales evidencias que justifican la aplicación de estas estrategias de tamizaje, cuando está indicado realizarlo, cómo y a quiénes hacerlo. Por último, se plantea también la utilidad de estas estrategias de monitoreo prolongado en el manejo y la prevención de la fibrilación auricular. Palabras clave: salud móvil
