| rheumatic heart disease case presentation ppt: Rheumatic Fever and Rheumatic Heart Disease World Health Organization, 2004-02-04 Rheumatic heart disease presents a major public health challenge (particularly for children) and major determinants are poverty, malnutrition, overcrowding, poor housing and a shortage of health-care resources. Although cost effective prevention and control strategies are available, they remain underused in most developing countries. This publication contains the report of a WHO expert consultation, held in Geneva in October 2001, which reviewed the current scientific knowledge of rheumatic fever and rheumatic heart disease, as well as the medical and public health related practices. It suggests practical recommendations for an evidence-based approach to the prevention and management of the disease and for cost-effective programmes for their control. |

| rheumatic heart disease case presentation ppt: Promoting Cardiovascular Health in the Developing World Institute of Medicine, Board on Global Health, Committee on Preventing the Global Epidemic of Cardiovascular Disease: Meeting the Challenges in Developing Countries, 2010-06-29 Cardiovascular disease (CVD), once thought to be confined primarily to industrialized nations, has emerged as a major health threat in developing countries. Cardiovascular disease now accounts for nearly 30 percent of deaths in low and middle income countries each year, and is accompanied by significant economic repercussions. Yet most governments, global health institutions, and development agencies have largely overlooked CVD as they have invested in health in developing countries. Recognizing the gap between the compelling evidence of the global CVD burden and the investment needed to prevent and control CVD, the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) turned to the IOM for advice on how to catalyze change. In this report, the IOM recommends that the NHLBI, development agencies, nongovernmental organizations, and governments work toward two essential goals: creating environments that promote heart healthy lifestyle choices and help reduce the risk of chronic diseases, and building public health infrastructure and health systems with the capacity to implement programs that will effectively detect and reduce risk and manage CVD. To meet these goals, the IOM recommends several steps, including improving cooperation and collaboration; implementing effective and feasible strategies; and informing efforts through research and health surveillance. Without better efforts to promote cardiovascular health, global health as a whole will be undermined. |

| rheumatic heart disease case presentation ppt: The Story of Yoga Alistair Shearer, 2020-02-15 How did an ancient Indian spiritual discipline turn into a $20+ billion-a-year mainstay of the global wellness industry? What happened along yoga's winding path from the caves and forests of the sages to the gyms, hospitals and village halls of the modern West? This comprehensive history sets yoga in its global cultural context for the first time. It leads us on a fascinating journey across the world, from arcane religious rituals and medieval body-magic, through muscular Christianity and the British Raj, to the Indian nationalist movement and the arrival of yoga in the twentieth-century West. We discover how the practice reached its present-day ubiquity and how it became embedded in powerful social currents shaping the world's future, such as feminism, digital media, celebrity culture, the stress pandemic and the quest for an authentic identity in the face of unprecedented change. Shearer's revealing history boasts a colorful cast of characters past and present, who tell an engaging tale of scholars and scandal, science and spirit, wisdom and waywardness. This is the untold story of yoga, warts and all. |

| rheumatic heart disease case presentation ppt: Pharmacotherapy of Heart Failure S. K. Gupta, 2005 Heart failure has been traditionally explained as a reduction in cardiac pumping capacity, caused by problems in the blood. Till now the therapy prescribed has been symptomatic, involving the use of diuretics, muscular stimulation and blood vessel relaxants. But recent research has focussed on the circumstances leading up to heart failure, which includes abnormal hemodynamics, atherosclerosis, dietary and nutritional anomalies, obesity, immunity and other metabolic disorders. This book brings together such research in one volume, including molecular and cellular aspects of heart failure and its pathophysiology. It is a significant contribution to the understanding and prevention of heart failure, and will be welcomed by cardiologists, pharmacologists, biochemists, and all those who practice and research the subject. The contributors from around the world include Australia, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, India, and USA. |

| rheumatic heart disease case presentation ppt: RHEUMATIC HEART DISEASE: STILL A CAUSE OF PEDIATRIC STROKE Marta Rosu00e1rio, 2017 BackgroundRheumatic heart disease (RHD) has declined in the developed countries but remains a major cause of cardiovascular disease. Progressive valvular disease develops in the years following one or more episodes of acute rheumatic fever (ARF), most of the cases being asymptomatic. Some possible complications of RHD are atrial fibrillation, pulmonary hypertension, heart failure and less commonly stroke.Case Presentation SummaryA 10 year-old boy was admitted to the emergency department due to sudden headache, blurred vision and gait imbalance. Neurological exam showed a limited supraversion of the right eye, diplopia, head tilt to the right, and gait ataxia. Initial brain CT was normal but 2 days later brain MRI showed left thalamic and mesencephalic ischemic lesions. 9 months earlier, a de novo murmur had led to a mitral valve (MV) regurgitation diagnosis. Transesophageal echocardiography confirmed a myxomatous MV with regurgitation. Immunologic, hematologic, infectious and vascular investigation were unremarkable, and a prothrombin G20210A gene mutation was detected. We discovered that 2 years before he had an untreated pharyngeal infection followed by migratory arthralgia, high CPR and ASO of 2968 U/ml. In the present context, this is highly suggestive of ARF with valvular involvement. The boy was discharged two weeks later with a normal neurological examination treated with monthly benzathine benzylpenicillin and warfarin for stroke secondary prevention.Learning Points/DiscussionThis patient probably had cardioembolic stroke due to RHD. A history of an untreated pharyngitis, arthritis and elevated ASO raised the high suspicion of a missed ARF. The prothrombin gene mutation likely increased the risk for a thrombus. This case reminds us to remain alert to complications of untreated streptococcal pharyngitis in an era of judicious antibiotic use campaign. |
