Fine tuning for totally endoscopic mitral valve surgery: ERAS applications

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

AimOne of the philosophies of minimally invasive mitral surgery is to enhance recovery after surgery (ERAS). In this report, we aim to present institutional protocol for ERAS and its results in patients who underwent totally endoscopic mitral valve surgery (TEMVS).Patients Mitral repair was performed in 58.4% of the cases.

Predicting postoperative systolic dysfunction in mitral regurgitation: CT vs. echocardiography

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Introduction Volume overload from mitral regurgitation can result in left ventricular systolic dysfunction. We compared volumetric CT-based and 2D echocardiographic indices of LV size and function as predictors of post-operative systolic dysfunction following mitral repair. Validation with prospective study is warranted.

Clinical, functional and prognostic implications of severe atrial dilation in secondary mitral regurgitation

Open Heart

However, its clinical, functional and prognostic implications have not been thoroughly explored in secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR). We sought to describe the implications of severe atrial dilation (SAD) in SMR.

Abstract 4140882: Peak Stroke Incidence Following Left Atrial Appendage Closure

Circulation

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. Procedure ICD codes were used to identify patients that underwent percutaneous LAAO.
