The cardiac sonography workforce in New Zealand
Buckley, Belinda A.; White, Steve; Poppe, K.K.; Whalley, Gillian (Minnis Communications, 2013)Abstract Introduction: The aim of this paper is to investigate the cardiac sonography workforce characteristics and registration requirements in New Zealand (NZ), with a comparison to similar workforces internationally. ... -
Differing prognostic value of pulse pressure in patients with heart failure with reduced or preserved ejection fraction: results from the MAGGIC individual patient meta-analysis
Jackson, Colette E.; Castagno, Davide; Maggioni, A.P.; Køber, Lars; Squire, I.B.; Swedberg, Karl; Andersson, Bert; Richards, A.M.; Bayes-Genis, Antoni; Tribouilloy, Christophe; Dobson, Joanna; Ariti, Cono A.; Poppe, K.K.; Earle, Nikki; Whalley, Gillian; Pocock, Stuart J.; Doughty, Robert N.; McMurray, John J.V. (European Society of Cardiology, 2015-01-23)AIMS: Low pulse pressure is a marker of adverse outcome in patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced ejection fraction (HFREF) but the prognostic value of pulse pressure in patients with HF and preserved ejection ... -
Gender and survival in patients with heart failure: interactions with diabetes and aetiology. Results from the MAGGIC individual patient meta-analysis
Martínez-Sellés, Manuel; Whalley, Gillian; Doughty, Robert N.; Poppe, K.K.; Earle, Nikki; Tribouilloy, Christophe; McMurray, John J.V.; Swedberg, Karl; Køber, Lars; Berry, Colin; Squire, I.B. (2012)While the populations of patients with heart failure (HF) studied in clinical trials are dominated by men, in routine clinical practice half or more of all patients with HF are women.1,2 Whether prognosis differs for men ... -
Heart failure in younger patients: the Meta-analysis Global Group in Chronic Heart Failure (MAGGIC)
Wong, Chih M.; Hawkins, Nathaniel M.; Petrie, Mark C.; Jhund, Pardeep S.; Gardner, Roy S.; Ariti, Cono A.; Poppe, K.K.; Earle, Nikki; Whalley, Gillian; Squire, I.B.; Doughty, Robert N.; McMurray, John J.V. (Oxford University Press on behalf of European Society of Cardiology, 2014-06-17)Aim Our understanding of heart failure in younger patients is limited. The Meta-analysis Global Group inChronic Heart Failure (MAGGIC) database, which consisted of 24 prospective observational studies and 7 randomized ... -
Known and missing left v entricular ejection fraction and survival in patients with heart failure : a MAGGIC meta-analysis report
Poppe, K.K.; Squire, I.B.; Whalley, Gillian (2013-06-26)Aims Treatment of patients with heart failure (HF) relies on measurement of LVEF. However, the extent to which EF isrecorded varies markedly. We sought to characterize the patient group that is missing a measure of EF, and ... -
Predicting survival in heart failure : a risk score based on 39 372 patients from 30 studies
Pocock, Stuart J.; Ariti, Cono A.; McMurray, John J.V.; Maggioni, A.P.; Køber, Lars; Squire, I.B.; Swedberg, Karl; Dobson, Joanna; Poppe, K.K.; Whalley, Gillian; Doughty, Robert N. (Oxford University Press, 2012-10-24)Aims: Using a large international database from multiple cohort studies, the aim is to create a generalizable easily used risk score for mortality in patients with heart failure (HF). Methods and results: Using a large ... -
Redefining normal reference ranges for echocardiography: a major new individual person data meta-analysis
Poppe, K.K.; Doughty, Robert N.; Whalley, Gillian (2013)Current recommended reference ranges for echocardiographic measurements may not be relevant to the diverse world population they are applied to. A new study, the echocardiographic normal reference ranges of the left heart ... -

Regional differences in echocardiography provision in New Zealand—results from the 2013 SCANZ Workforce Survey
Buckley, Belinda A.; Poppe, K.K.; Farnworth, Mark; Whalley, Gillian (New Zealand Medical Association, 2015-01-30)Summary A 2013 survey of NZ public hospital echocardiography services demonstrates unequal regional distribution relating to regional population size and demographics (age, ethnicity and socioeconomic status). Additionally ... -
Relationship of serum sodium concentration to mortality in a wide spectrum of heart failure patients with preserved and with reduced ejection fraction: an individual patient data meta-analysis
Whalley, Gillian; Rusinaru, Dan; Tribouilloy, Christophe; Berry, Colin; Richards, A.M.; Earle, Nikki; Poppe, K.K.; Guazzi, Marco; Macin, Steller M.; Komajda, Michael; Doughty, Robert N. (2012)Hyponatraemia (usually defined as a serum sodium concentration,135 mmol/L)1 is observed in 20% of patients admitted to hospital for heart failure (HF).2 – 4 Studies conducted in various patient populations of chronic ... -
Role of echocardiographic left ventricular mass and carotid intima-media thickness in the cardiovascular risk assessment of asymptomatic patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Poppe, K.K.; Whalley, Gillian; Somaratne, Jithendra B.; Keelan, S.; Bagg, Warwick; Triggs, C. M.; Doughty, Robert N. (2011)Background: Standard cardiovascular (CV) risk assessment may underestimate risk in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Cardiac and vascular imaging to detect subclinical disease may augment risk prediction. This ... -
Screening for left ventricular hypertrophy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in the community
Whalley, Gillian; Somaratne, Jithendra B.; Poppe, K.K.; ter Bals, M.M.; Wadams, Gina; Pearl, Ann; Bagg, Warwick; Doughty, Robert N. (2011)Background: Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is a strong predictor of cardiovascular disease and is common among patients with type 2 diabetes. However, no systematic screening for LVH is currently recommended for patients ...
