Progression of aortic stenosis after an acute myocardial infarction

Open Heart

It is unknown whether MI also induces pathological remodelling of the aortic valve and alters aortic stenosis (AS) progression. We thus compared AS progression after an acute MI and in patients with/without history of MI, and assessed post-MI pathobiological changes within the aortic valve leaflets in a sheep model.

Impact of elevated left ventricular filling pressure on long-term outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve replacement

Open Heart

Background Increase in left ventricular filling pressure (FP) and diastolic dysfunction are established consequences of progressive aortic stenosis (AS). However, the impact of elevated FP as detected by pretranscatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) echocardiogram on long-term outcomes after TAVR remains unclear.

Predicting outcomes in patients with aortic stenosis using machine learning: the Aortic Stenosis Risk (ASteRisk) score

Open Heart

Objective To use echocardiographic and clinical features to develop an explainable clinical risk prediction model in patients with aortic stenosis (AS), including those with low-gradient AS (LGAS), using machine learning (ML). Our algorithm, the Aortic Stenosis Risk (ASteRisk) score, is available online for public use.

Eccentricity Index in Bicuspid Aortic Valve

All About Cardiovascular System and Disorders

Transcript of the video: Closure line of aortic valve on M-Mode echocardiogram, is seen as central line, while in bicuspid aortic valve, it is an eccentric closure, nearer to one of the walls of the aorta. That is an important feature of bicuspid aortic valve on M-Mode echocardiogram.

Echocardiographic evaluation in aortic regurgitation

All About Cardiovascular System and Disorders

Echocardiogram in parasternal long axis view shows dilated left ventricle, left atrium, aorta and a small portion of the right ventricle, which is usually the outflow region. Mitral valve leaflets seen in open position between the left ventricle and left atrium are thickened. Aortic valve is seen as grossly thickened and calcified.

AISAP’s CARDIO AI-powered Diagnostic Assessment Software Receives FDA Clearance

DAIC

Data from the studies demonstrated that AISAP CARDIO enables non-cardiologist physicians to interpret point-of-care echocardiograms just as well as expert cardiologists of the MGB echocardiography lab. James Hillis, MBBS, DPhil, director of Clinical Operations at Mass General Brigham AI.
