Procedure trends certainly suggest that we’ve entered the TAVR era, but a pair of new studies show that surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) is a far better option for many younger and healthier patients who are increasingly seen as TAVR candidates. Much of these SAVR declines occurred in patients with tricuspid aortic valves (from 84.5%

Patients were selected from the HCA database (Jan 2021-Jul 2023). Patients with documented STEMI, left ventricular thrombus, mechanical mitral or aortic valve replacement were excluded. ICD 10 codes were used to identify patients with documented a fib. 5,661 underwent percutaneous closure.

years) patients who underwent treatment of PVL at 3 tertiary centers between January 2002 and December 2021 were included. Three hundred cases (89.6%) had mitral PVL, and 35 (10.4%) had aortic PVL. Echocardiographic features, procedure details, and in‐hospital or long‐term outcomes were assessed. Technical (78.9 versus 76.2%;P=0.549)

For example, we have a lot of meaningful data on outcomes from CABG procedures and transcatheter aortic valve replacement in the short term. This legislation, if passed, would help us see the bigger picture and allow us to design treatment strategies that would offer the best long-term outcomes for our patients,” said Alan M.
