    Abstract Background: In Mexico, the epidemiology of heart failure is still not well understood. However, it is known that the primary cause of hospital admissions in patients with heart failure is pulmonary and systemic congestion.
    Objective: To estimate congestion status and assess cardiac function using portable ultrasound in patients with heart failure.
    Method: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted. Patients who attended the Heart Failure Clinic at the Ignacio Chávez National Cardiology Institute in Mexico City between May and August 2022 were selected. They underwent ultrasonographic evaluation using a portable device to assess pulmonary and systemic congestion, as well as cardiac function and structure.
    Results: One-hundred patients diagnosed with heart failure were prospectively included during the study period; 76% were male, with an average age of 59 years (range: 50-68 years). The recorded LVEF median was 34% (IQR: 27-43.5%). When evaluating pulmonary congestion, 78% of the patients showed a pattern A and 22% a pattern B. Following the VExUS protocol, 92% of the patients were at grade 0, 2% at grade 1, and 6% at grade 2.
    Conclusions: The use of the portable ultrasound facilitated the quantitative characterization of the echocardiographic features of the studied population. This device could provide better clinical characterization which, in turn, might allow for optimized drug prescription for heart failure and dose adjustments of diuretics based on echocardiographic congestion findings.

    Abstract Background The T-wave alterations are suggestive of ischemia, among them there is the pseudo-normalization (positivization of the T-wave, previously negative, during stress exercise). Myocardial single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) at rest and stress is usually performed with Technetium 99 (Tc-99), which has high sensitivity and specificity for the detection of ischemic heart disease. In this study, we decided to investigate the patients who pseudo-normalized the T-wave in the stress test to correlate with the existence of ischemia diagnosed by myocardial perfusion study, specifically myocardial SPECT in perfusion and rest with Tc-99. Methodology T - wave pseudo-normalization patients who underwent a myocardial perfusion SPECT between January 2018 and June 2019 were included in this retrospective study. We analyzed 81 patients: 50 patients with pseudo-normalization of T-waves and 31 patients, as a control group, without pseudo-normalization. A descriptive analysis of the quantitative variables was performed using Student's t-test or Mann-Whitney U test, and for the qualitative variables, the χ2 test or Fisher's exact test was performed. Results The degree of ischemia according to the presence or absence of pseudo-normalization of the T-wave. The pseudo-normalization of the T-wave in the group without ischemia (48.4% vs. 36%), for the mild degree the proportions were the same (38.7% vs. 38%), the moderate degree it was slightly higher in the pseudo-normalization of the T-wave (9.7% vs. 18%) and severe (3.2% vs. 6%). Conclusions In this study, the relationship between pseudo-normalization of the T waveform and ischemia, predominantly moderate to severe, was demonstrated. However, it was not statistically significant due to the size of the sample studied.

    Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic decreed by the World Health Organization (WHO) since March 12, 2020 is wreaking havoc globally and it is a true economic, social and health challenge. Although the clinical manifestations of COVID-19 are respiratory symptoms, some patients also have cardiological symptoms. Among patients with cardiological conditions2 they represent a group of higher risk and, in fact, they are a particularly vulnerable group, due to their higher risk of contagion and greater severity in case of acquiring the disease1 those with heart failure (HF), including heart transplant (CT) and ventricular assists, as well as patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). HF is the main chronic cardiovascular disease and patients in this group are the most vulnerable for the development of more serious clinical symptoms after suffering the infection, and to a greater extent cases with advanced HF3. In fact, HF is one of the most frequent complications in patients with COVID-194. Likewise, transplant patients who require immunosuppressants to avoid graft rejection, constitute a population especially susceptible to infection and to develop more serious processes. This situation has made the National Association of Cardiologists of Mexico (ANCAM) and the Mexican Society of Cardiology (SMC) together with their respective chapters, have prepared the following recommendations for medical personnel, who participate in the care of this special group of patients in the different clinical settings, who suffer or not, of COVID-19.

    Abstract Chronic heart failure continues to be one of the main causes of impairment in the functioning and quality of life of people who suffer from it, as well as one of the main causes of mortality in our country and around the world. Mexico has a high prevalence of risk factors for developing heart failure, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and obesity, which makes it essential to have an evidence-based document that provides recommendations to health professionals involved in the diagnosis and treatment of these patients. This document establishes the clinical practice guide (CPG) prepared at the initiative of the Mexican Society of Cardiology (SMC) in collaboration with the Iberic American Agency for the Development and Evaluation of Health Technologies, with the purpose of establishing recommendations based on the best available evidence and agreed upon by an interdisciplinary group of experts. This document complies with international quality standards, such as those described by the US Institute of Medicine (IOM), the National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE), the Intercollegiate Network for Scottish Guideline Development (SIGN) and the Guidelines International Network (G-I-N). The Guideline Development Group was integrated in a multi-collaborative and interdisciplinary manner with the support of methodologists with experience in systematic literature reviews and the development of CPG. A modified Delphi panel methodology was developed and conducted to achieve an adequate level of consensus in each of the recommendations contained in this CPG. We hope that this document contributes to better clinical decision making and becomes a reference point for clinicians who manage patients with chronic heart failure in all their clinical stages and in this way, we improve the quality of clinical care, improve their quality of life and reducing its complications.
