BACKGROUND Although previous studies showed that pregnancy with heart disease is associated with significant complications, few focused on patients with valvular heart disease in sub-Saharan Africa. METHODS We report maternal and foetal outcomes in 50 pregnant women with heart disease admitted to the Department of Cardiology of the University of Dakar, during an 8-year period. RESULTS Rheumatic heart disease was observed in 46 women, seven of whom had previously been operated on. Among the remaining 39, 32 had mitral stenosis (isolated or associated with other valvular lesions). At admission, 36 women presented with pulmonary oedema, two with pulmonary embolism and 18 with arrhythmia. There were 17 maternal deaths (34%). Maternal death was associated with: mitral stenosis (P=0.03); severe tricuspid regurgitation (P=0.001); New York Heart Association functional class III or IV (P=0.001); symptoms of heart failure (P<0.001). A favourable maternal outcome was associated with: prior cardiac events (P<0.001); prior surgical valve replacement (P=0.03); cardiac prosthetic valve (P=0.03). There were 30 live births, six foetal deaths and five therapeutic abortions; nine women were lost to follow-up. Delivery was vaginal in 19 out of 30 cases and by caesarean section in 11 cases. Median gestational age at delivery was 28weeks (range, 8-38weeks). Five births occurred preterm. There were four stillbirths (neonatal mortality, 7.6%). CONCLUSIONS Heart disease severely impacts maternal and foetal outcome in our study. Pregnant women who underwent appropriate valve replacement before pregnancy had a better prognosis.

Background The incidence of cardiovascular disease is growing worldwide and this is of major public health concern. In sub-Saharan Africa, there is a lack of epidemiological data on the prevalence and distribution of risk factors of cardiovascular disease. This study aimed at assessing the prevalence of hypertension and other cardiovascular risk factors among an urban Senegalese population. Methods Using an adaptation of the WHO STEPwise approach to chronic disease risk-factor surveillance, we conducted a population-based, cross-sectional survey from 3 to 30 May 2010 on 1 424 participants aged over 15 years. Socio-demographic and behavioural risk factors were collected in step 1. Physical anthropometric measurements and blood pressure were documented in step 2. Blood tests (cholesterol, fasting blood glucose, and creatinine levels) were carried out in step 3. Results The prevalence of hypertension was 46% (95% CI: 43.4–48%), with a higher prevalence in females (47.9%) than males (41.7%) (p = 0.015), and 50% of these hypertensive were previously undiagnosed. Mean age was 53.6 years (SD: 15.8). In known cases of hypertension, the average length of its evolution was 6 years 9 months (range 1 month to 60 years). Hypertension was significantly associated with age (p = 0.001), socio-professional category (p = 0.003), dyslipidaemia (p < 0.001), obesity (p < 0.001), physical inactivity (p < 0.001), diabetes (p < 0.001) and stroke (p < 0.001). Conclusion We found a high prevalence of hypertension and other cardiovascular risk factors in this population. There is need of a specific programme for the management and prevention of cardiovascular disease in this population.

UNLABELLED The aims of this work are to study the nursery futures during idiopathic myocardiopathy of peripartum (IMPP), to measure the prevalence of thromboses and spontaneous contrast during the IMPP and to determine their evolution. METHODOLOGY It is about a longitudinal exploratory study carried out with the Aristide-Le-Dantec teaching hospital of Dakar, beginning January 2001 to November 2004, having included 33 patients. RESULTS The average age of the patients was 26 years; the average pregnancy was of 3.39 gestures. The signs of cardiac insufficiency were constant and four patients (12%) had presented an ischemic cerebral vascular accident. We had raised an auricular case of fibrillation and tachycardia atrial multifocal. The transthoracic echography (ETT) noted an aspect of hypokinetic myocardiopathy dilated with deterioration of the systolic function of the left ventricle, a thrombus in ten patients (30.3%) and a spontaneous contrast in two cases (6%). The transoesophageal echocardiography (ETO) was superposable with the ETT with regard to dimensions of the cardiac cavities and the presence of thrombus but its sensitivity was higher (100% against 66%) with regard to the detection of contrasts spontaneous. All the patients had the treatment of a congestive heart failure associated to an anticoagulant treatment. The evolution was marked by an improvement of the heart failure. The thrombus and spontaneous contrast had disappeared in all the patients. The absence of anaemia and the presence of spontaneous contrast (p=0.003) were correlated with the presence of thrombosis (p=0.05). CONCLUSION The idiopathic myocardiopathy of the peripartum is a relatively frequent affection in zone Soudano-Sahelian. Occurrence of thromboses is frequent at the time of this affection. Our study confirms the superiority of the echocardiography transoesophageal in the detection of intracardiac spontaneous contrast. The evolution can be favourable subject to a rigorous care and a regular surveillance.

UNLABELLED The complications of infective endocarditis (IE) are frequent and severe. Our objectives were to analyze the clinical, paraclinical, and prognostic features of IE vascular complications observed in two cardiology units, in Dakar. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively studied 90 patients presenting with of IE, hospitalized between January 2005 and February 2011. The diagnostic criteria for IE were modified Duke University criteria. We selected in our study population, patients with vascular complications. RESULTS Seventeen patients (18.8%) presented with one or more vascular complications of IE: eight male and nine female patients, with a mean age of 28 years. Infective endocarditis occurred on an abnormal valve in 15 cases. We identified 22 vascular lesions: ten neurological complications, seven arterial complications in the limbs, two myocardial infarctions, two cases of pulmonary embolism, and one splenic infarction. The vascular complication revealed an IE in seven cases. The vascular complication occurred during antibiotic treatment, in 15 cases including seven cases before the 14th day, nine of the 17 patients died. Death was related to vascular complications in six cases, in one case it was related to septic shock. CONCLUSION Vascular complications of IE are frequent, the most common are neurological. Their prevention requires early and adequate management of IE.

INTRODUCTION Permanent cardiac pacing is a technique whose indications have increased in the last 20 years. As with any foreign body, pacemaker implantation is associated with the risk of infection. The objective of this study was to describe the clinical, paraclinical and treatment options of infections secondary to pacemaker implantation at the Cardiology Department of the Aristide le Dantec Teaching Hospital (CHU Aristide le Dantec) in Dakar, Senegal. METHODS We conducted a retrospective study over a period of three years (from January 2005 to December 2007) during which pacemaker implantation was carried out in 107 patients. All patients with local and/or systemic signs of infection were included in our study. RESULTS The prevalence of infection in patients with pacemakers was 5.6% in our series and infection occurred in three women and three men, with a mean age of 66.2 years (range 23-83). The delay time for the onset of clinical signs of infection was 6.6 months, with a range of eight days to 12 months. The clinical signs were externalisation of the pacemaker with suppuration (five cases), fever (one case) and inflammatory signs (one case). Factors favouring the occurrence of infection were co-morbidity (four cases), pre-operative length of stay (average eight days), use of temporary cardiac pacing (three cases), the number of people in the theatre (average 4.5), postoperative haematoma (one case) and repeating the surgical procedure (three cases). Staphylococcus epidermidis (two cases), Staphylococcus aureus (two cases) and Klebsiella pneumonia (one case) were the organisms isolated at the local site. Transthoracic echocardiography showed no objective signs of endocarditis. The treatment was antibiotic therapy for an average duration of 50.4 days after debridement of the infected site (six cases). We noted four recurrences at six months and one death from sepsis at 12 months. CONCLUSION Infections secondary to pacemaker implantation are rare but serious. Their management is difficult and requires the removal of the implanted material, hence the importance of prevention of infection, or the removal and re-implantation of the pacemaker at another site in cases of infection. This is particularly important in our region where pacemakers are very expensive.

BACKGROUND Whereas the coronary artery disease death rate has declined in high-income countries, the incidence of acute coronary syndromes (ACS) is increasing in sub-Saharan Africa, where their management remains a challenge. AIM To propose a consensus statement to optimize management of ACS in sub-Saharan Africa on the basis of realistic considerations. METHODS The AFRICARDIO-2 conference (Yamoussoukro, May 2015) reviewed the ongoing features of ACS in 10 sub-Saharan countries (Benin, Burkina-Faso, Congo-Brazzaville, Guinea, Ivory Coast, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Senegal, Togo), and analysed whether improvements in strategies and policies may be expected using readily available healthcare facilities. RESULTS The outcome of patients with ACS is affected by clearly identified factors, including: delay to reaching first medical contact, achieving effective hospital transportation, increased time from symptom onset to reperfusion therapy, limited primary emergency facilities (especially in rural areas) and emergency medical service (EMS) prehospital management, and hence limited numbers of patients eligible for myocardial reperfusion (thrombolytic therapy and/or percutaneous coronary intervention [PCI]). With only five catheterization laboratories in the 10 participating countries, PCI rates are very low. However, in recent years, catheterization laboratories have been built in referral cardiology departments in large African towns (Abidjan and Dakar). Improvements in patient care and outcomes should target limited but selected objectives: increasing awareness and recognition of ACS symptoms; education of rural-based healthcare professionals; and developing and managing a network between first-line healthcare facilities in rural areas or small cities, emergency rooms in larger towns, the EMS, hospital-based cardiology departments and catheterization laboratories. CONCLUSION Faced with the increasing prevalence of ACS in sub-Saharan Africa, healthcare policies should be developed to overcome the multiple shortcomings blunting optimal management. European and/or North American management guidelines should be adapted to African specificities. Our consensus statement aims to optimize patient management on the basis of realistic considerations, given the healthcare facilities, organizations and few cardiology teams that are available.

Introduction: In patients with rheumatoid arthritis, cardiovascular involvement is common, may have serious consequences, and can contribute to worsening of patient’s outcome. The realization of systematic electrocardiogram can help to detect earlier cardiac abnormalities and place in a logical secondary prevention. Our purpose of this study was to investigate the electrocardiographic abnormalities in a population of Senegalese patients with rheumatoid arthritis without clinically evident cardiovascular manifestations. Patients and methods: The study was performed as a cross-sectional study, which included prospectively 73 patients of both sexes aged at least 18 years in the internal medicine department of University Hospital Center Aristide Le Dantec in Dakar, Senegal, fulfilling the criteria for definite or classical rheumatoid arthritis according to the criteria of the American Rheumatism Association. It focused on a sample of following clinical examination, we conducted laboratory tests (CRP, fibrinogen, ESR, Rheumatoid factors, Latex and Waaler Rose, Anti-CCP, antinuclear factors and antibodies anti-ENA), a standard ECG. Data were analyzed using a descriptive study of the different variables with the calculation of proportions for categorical variables, and the positional parameters and dispersion for quantitative variables. Results: All patients had normal ECG and no cardiac symptoms or dyspnoea on effort. The study included 73 patients (68 females and 5males) with rheumatoid arthritis without obvious cardiac events meet the criteria of definition of the ACR 1987. The mean age was 44.17 ± 14.43 years with extremes of 18 and 75 years. The mean duration of RA was 5.93 ± 4.78 years. The concept of family inflammatory arthritis was reported in 35.60% of cases and almost one in six patients had at least a factor of cardiovascular risk (16.96%). Electrocardiographic abnormalities found were dominated by left ventricular hypertrophy encountered in 34 patients (46.57%), left atrial enlargement in 32.90% of cases, 16.44% of patients had left axis deviation. The myocardial hyper excitability was present in 8 patients (11.19%), including 6 (8.45%) ventricular premature beats found in patients with active RA. Twenty-six patients had signs consistent with an ischemia and/or myocardial injury is a rate of 35.61%. Conclusion: The realization of the electrocardiogram in patients with rheumatoid arthritis without clinically evident cardiovascular manifestations allows highlighting cardiovascular abnormalities related to the natural course of the disease.

Little is known about the biological, epidemiological, and clinical risk factors for thrombosis and venous thromboembolism (VTE) among Black Africans. We undertook a study of the prevalence of VTE risk factors for thrombosis in a Senegalese population. A three-year cross-sectional and case-control study involving 105 cases and 200 controls was conducted in various hospitals in Dakar (Senegal). Our results demonstrate that oral contraception, immobilization by casts, surgery, and blood group were significantly associated with VTE occurrence. Additionally, 16 cases and 2 controls had protein S (PS) values of less than 48.4% (M-2SD), exhibiting a highly significant difference (P < 1 x 10−4). The number of cases with a low protein C (PC) level was significantly higher than the respective number of controls. Using logistic regression methods, we established a correlation between significantly associated variables and deep venous thrombosis (DVT) occurrence. Age, obesity, sickle cell disease, and PC deficiency were not significantly associated with thrombosis. In contrast, gender, PS deficiency, varicose veins, surgery, non-O blood type, and the presence of anti-phospholipid antibodies were significantly and independently associated with DVT. These findings are extremely useful for clinical management of patients suffering from DVT and can help to reduce the high recurrence rate observed in our study.

INTRODUCTION Diabetes is a major risk factor for coronary artery disease witch may develop insidiously. Several non-invasive methods are used to detect silent myocardial ischaemia, especially in diabetic patients at high cardiovascular risk. We project to screen, by dobutamine stress echocardiography, silent myocardial ischaemia in type 2 diabetics in Senegal. METHODOLOGY We randomly recruited in hospital in Senegal type 2 diabetics aged at least 40 years and a dobutamine stress echocardiography was performed in those selected according to the French Society of Cardiology and the French Language Association for the Study of Diabetes and Metabolic Diseases. RESULTS Dobutamine stress echocardiography was performed in 79 diabetics at high cardiovascular risk, including 56 women. The average age was 58.8±11.8 years. The exam was positive in 67.1% of cases (53/79), with a predominance of motion abnormalities in anterior territory (83%). Cardiovascular risk factors associated with positivity of test were microalbuminuria (p=0.0001), inactivity (p=0.0001), dyslipidemia (p=0.0002), arterial hypertension (p=0.001), smoking (0.003) and male sex (p=0.004). CONCLUSION In Africa, dobutamine stress echocardiography has the advantage of its accessibility and its feasibility. Early detection of silent myocardial ischaemia in diabetics at high risk could optimize their care.

INTRODUCTION Arterial hypertension (HTA) in the elderly is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Our study aims to describe the clinical, electrocardiographic and echocardiographic aspects of Arterial hypertension in elderly patients. METHODS We conducted a descriptive, cross-sectional study from January to September 2013. Hypertensive patients =60 years treated in Outpatient Cardiology Department at the Principal Hospital in Dakar were included in the study. Statistical data were analyzed using Epi Info 7 software and a p-value < 0.05 was taken as significant. RESULTS A total of 208 patients were enrolled in the study. The average age was 69.9 years with a female predominance (sex ratio 0.85). Average blood pressure was 162/90 mm Hg. HTA was under control in 13% of cases. The ECG showed evidence of rhythm disturbance (17.78%), left atrial enlargement (45.19%), left ventricular hypertrophy (28.85%) and complete atrioventricular block in 2 cases. Holter ECG revealed non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (Lown class IVb) in 4 cases, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in 6 cases and paroxysmal atrial flutter in 1 case. Echocardiography performed in 140 patients showed mainly concentric left ventricular hypertrophy in 25 patients, occuring more frequently in males (p=0,04) and dilated left atrium in 56,42% of cases, occuring more frequently in elderly patients (p= 0,01). CONCLUSION Electrocardiographic and echocardiographic aspects in elderly hypertensive population are characterized by concentric left ventricular hypertrophy and by the frequency of arrhythmias sometimes revealed by long-term continuous external electrocardiographic recording.Introduction L’hypertension artérielle (HTA) du sujet âgé est un facteur indépendant de maladie cardio-vasculaire. Nos objectifs étaient de décrire les aspects cliniques, électrocardiographique et échocardiographiques de l’HTA du sujet âgé. Méthodes Nous avons mené une étude descriptive et transversale de Janvier à Septembre 2013. Etaient inclus les sujets hypertendus âgés d’au moins 60 ans suivis en ambulatoire au service de cardiologie de l’Hôpital Principal de Dakar. Les données statistiques étaient analysées par le logiciel Epi Info 7 et une valeur de p < 0,05 était retenue comme significative. Résultats Au total, 208 patients étaient inclus. L’âge moyen était de 69,9 ans avec une prédominance féminine (sex-ratio de 0,85). La pression artérielle moyenne était de 162/90mmHg. L’HTA était contrôlée dans 13% des cas. A l’électrocardiogramme, on notait un trouble du rythme (17,78%), une hypertrophie auriculaire gauche (45,19%), une hypertrophie ventriculaire gauche (28,85%) et 2 cas de bloc auriculo-ventriculaire complet. Le Holter ECG révélait 4 cas de tachycardie ventriculaire non soutenue (IVb de Lown), 6 cas de fibrillation atriale paroxystique et 1 cas de flutter atrial paroxystique. L’échocardiographie réalisée chez 140 patients retrouvait une HVG à prédominance concentrique chez 25 patients, plus fréquente chez les hommes (p=0,04) et une dilatation de l’oreillette gauche dans 56,42% des cas, plus fréquente chez les patients plus âgés (p= 0,01). Conclusion Les aspects électrocardiographiques et échocardiographiques dans la population hypertendue âgée sont caractérisés par l’hypertrophie ventriculaire gauche notamment concentrique, la fréquence des arythmies révélées quelques fois par l’enregistrement électrocardiographique de longue durée.
