SAVR’s Value in the TAVR Era

CardiacWire

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. The proportion of SAVR patients increased in the <65yr patient group (26.2%

Abbott Announces FDA Approval of First-of-its-kind Device to Repair Leaky Tricuspid Heart Valve, TriClip

DAIC

Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of its TriClip, a first-of-its-kind device to repair leaky tricuspid heart valve, for which more than 1.6 are affected by tricuspid regurgitation, 1 which can severely impact quality of life. Abbott has announced U.S million people in the U.S. are estimated to be affected. and Lynn C.

Tricuspid Valve Repair Existing literature on national surgical outcomes of isolated tricuspid valve repair or replacement is based on data from over a decade ago and may not reflect current practice results. Analysis of 13,587 patients undergoing isolated tricuspid valve surgery from 2017 to 2023 revealed a 5.5%

Artificial intelligence-enabled phenotyping of patients with severe aortic stenosis: on the recovery of extra-aortic valve cardiac damage after transcatheter aortic valve replacement

Open Heart

Objective A novel artificial intelligence-based phenotyping approach to stratify patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) prior to transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has been proposed, based on echocardiographic and haemodynamic data. ±15.8 ±15.1 mm Hg, p value: 0.0079). to 84.7%) and 74.6% (95% CI 65.9%

Progression of aortic stenosis after an acute myocardial infarction

Open Heart

Background Myocardial infarction (MI) has been shown to induce fibrotic remodelling of the mitral and tricuspid valves. It is unknown whether MI also induces pathological remodelling of the aortic valve and alters aortic stenosis (AS) progression. vs –0.04±0.04 cm 2 /m 2 /year; p=0.004).

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. Self-expanding transcatheter heart valves were used in the majority of patients (n=1160; 91.4%). In the matched population, differences in mortality (30 days: 4.2% 2.44];P=0.035).
