BACKGROUND:The extent of cardiac damage has been shown to be associated with increased mortality, repeat hospitalization, and decreased quality of life after aortic valve replacement (AVR). Patients were categorized into 5 groups (stages 04) based on their stage of cardiac damage in the year before AVR.
Objective Cabrol shunt has been introduced for surgical repair of type A aortic dissection (TAAD) without robust evidence supporting its routine preventive use. Methods Adult patients with TAAD from China 5A study were included if surgically repaired between 2016 and 2022. Results were similar in multiple sensitivity analysis.
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%
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that has revolutionised the treatment of severe aortic stenosis (AS). It is a serious condition that can significantly impair quality of life and lead to fatal cardiovascular complications if left unmanaged.
Objectives The management of severe aortic stenosis mandates consideration of aortic valve intervention for symptomatic patients. However, for asymptomatic patients with severe aortic stenosis, recent randomised trials supported earlier intervention. to 0.96; I 2 15%). to 0.56; I 2 77%).
BackgroundMalnutrition status is an important predictor of prognosis in patients after aortic valve replacement. However, the prognostic value of malnutrition status in patients with moderatetosevere aortic stenosis is unclear. Patients were grouped according to different nutritional status assessment methods.
