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).

Transcatheter versus surgical valve replacement in patients with bicuspid aortic valves: an updated meta-analysis

The British Journal of Cardiology

Patients with bicuspid aortic valves (BAV) are predisposed to the development of aortic stenosis. We performed a pairwise meta-analysis, comparing the efficacy of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) versus surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) in patients with BAV.

Predictors of post-TAVI conduction abnormalities in patients with bicuspid aortic valves

Open Heart

Objectives This study evaluates predictors of conduction abnormalities (CA) following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in patients with bicuspid aortic valves (BAV). Predictors of CA are well established among patients with tricuspid aortic valves but not in those with BAV.

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%

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%

Study: Robotic Arm Can be Used for Remote Echocardiograms

DAIC

Approximately one third (17 patients) had a heart problem identified using conventional in person echocardiography, including 10 with a primary diagnosis of valvulopathy (1 Barlow's syndrome, 1 bicuspid aortic valve and 8 less-than-moderate regurgitation), 2 cardiac surgery follow-ups (1 case of aortic valve replacement and septal myectomy, and 1 case (..)
