Outcomes Following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement for Aortic Stenosis in Patients With Type 0 Bicuspid, Type 1 Bicuspid, and Tricuspid Aortic Valves

Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions

BACKGROUND:Data concerning the outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve replacement in type 0 bicuspid aortic stenosis (AS) are scarce. Ascending aortic diameter was the single predictor of 1-year mortality in type 0 bicuspid patients (hazard ratio, 1.59 [95% CI, 1.03–2.44];P=0.035). Poverall=0.522; 1 year: 10% versus 2.3%

Conduction Disturbances and Outcome After Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Bicuspid and Tricuspid Aortic Stenosis

Circulation

BACKGROUND:This study aimed to compare the incidence and prognostic implications of new-onset conduction disturbances after surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) in patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) aortic stenosis (AS) versus patients with tricuspid aortic valve (TAV) AS (ie, BAV-AS and TAV-AS, respectively).

SAVR’s Value in the TAVR Era

CardiacWire

The researchers analyzed 200k nationwide adults who underwent SAVR between 2011 and 2022, finding that… Annual SAVR volumes decreased by 45% (19,560 to 10,851). to 55% of total SAVRs), while SAVR ratios increased among patients with bicuspid aortic valves (from 15.5% to 54.5%), but declined among 65-79yr (49.2%

Why You Need To Measure apoB To Assess Your Cardiovascular Risk

Dr. Paddy Barrett

During medical school, one of the classic bedside exam questions we get is how to differentiate the valve issues of aortic stenosis and mitral regurgitation, which produce similar but different murmurs when you listen with a stethoscope. They are the same ones asking about the murmur characteristics of aortic stenosis.
