Early experience with a novel transapical transcatheter aortic valve system in patients with severe aortic stenosis: a prospective, multicenter study

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

All patients were pre-TAVR assessed by transthoracic echocardiography and computed tomography of the aortic valve (AV) and relevant left cardiac and vascular anatomy. Nanjing) to evaluate its safety and efficacy.Methods130 high risk patients with symptomatic severe AS from 11 institutions were treated with the novel Xcor system.

Snare‐Assisted Flexion of 27‐French Leadless Pacemaker Delivery Sheath: A Case Report

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology

ABSTRACT Introduction A leadless pacemaker (LLPM) was recommended for a patient with intermittent complete heart block and near-syncope. The LLPM could not traverse the tricuspid valve. Methods and Results Delivery of LLPM is through a large sheath that has limited deflection and steerability.

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

The study aims to compare the outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve replacement for AS in patients with type 0 bicuspid, type 1 bicuspid, and tricuspid aortic valve anatomy.METHODS:We enrolled consecutive patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement for severe AS between 2012 and 2022 in this single-center retrospective cohort study.

Evaluation of JVP

All About Cardiovascular System and Disorders

To revise the anatomy lessons, this is the external jugular vein and this is the internal jugular vein. And that will be the approximate level of the tricuspid valve, the reference point for measuring right atrial pressure. The X prime descent is absent in tricuspid regurgitation in which, C and V waves fuse together.
