Recently published research shows a medical device may be beneficial for patients who have previously had a stroke and are planning to undergo a transcatheter aorticvalve replacement, a type of heartvalve operation.
Aortic Stenosis (AS) is a common condition with an estimated pooled prevalence of all AS in the elderly population at around 12.4%, with that of severe AS estimated to be around 3.4%. In the past, surgical aorticvalve replacement was the primary treatment option for severe AS for decades.
Dr. Shettys team followed 252 patients who underwent the Ross procedure, a heartvalve replacement operation commonly used to treat younger patients with severe aorticvalve disease. Freedom from aortic regurgitation was 95.1%, 92.2%, 87.7%, and 84.5% at 5,10,15 and 20 years respectively, the researchers reported.
IntroductionSince TAVR was approved for lower-risk aortic stenosis (AS) patients, managing post-implantation conduction disturbances has become crucial, especially with self-expanding heartvalves (SEV). Forty-seven received SEVs using COL, and 50 with CON techniques.
The first cases were performed by Dr. Tamim Nazif , Director of Clinical Research, Dr. Susheel Kodali , Professor of Medicine and Director of the Structural Heart and Valve Center , and Dr. Isaac George , Surgical Director of the HeartValve Center. JACC Cardiovasc Interv. 2019 Dec 23;12(24):2449-2459.
Background Valvular heart disease is a major health concern worldwide. The effective management of patients undergoing valve replacement determines their prognosis. Bibliometric analysis of studies on managing patients with artificial heartvalves has not been previously performed.
Severe disease is managed with valve replacement procedures, which entail high health care–related costs and postprocedural morbidity and mortality. Robust ongoing research programs have elucidated many important molecular pathways contributing to primary valvular heart disease.
In the heart of Adana, the Adana City Health Training and Research Center recently became the epicenter of groundbreaking advancements in medical education. Last week marked a significant milestone as the center of excellence for Transcatheter AorticValve Implantation (TAVI) procedures hosted a highly successful TAVI Masterclass.

A study led by bioengineers at the University of California San Diego sheds new light on how a type of heartvalve disease, called aorticvalve stenosis, progresses differently in males and females. The research reveals that this sex-based difference can be traced to a gene on the Y chromosome.
The Society for Cardiovascular Angiography & Interventions (SCAI) kicks off its SCAI Scientific Sessions 2024 this week, May 2-4 in Long Beach, CA, bringing together more than 1,800 clinicians, scientists, researchers, and innovators in the field of interventional cardiology and endovascular medicine.

In light of the growing number of patients undergoing transcatheter aorticvalve replacement (TAVR), there is an increasing demand for data regarding the management of failed TAVR procedures, including the possibility of a repeat TAVR intervention. No significant disparities were found in the rates of death at 30 days (4.7%
All animals underwent cardiac valve surgeries via left thoracotomy with CPB. Surgical techniques included mitral valve replacement, mitral valve repair, aorticvalve replacement, OZAKI procedure, ascending aorta replacement, and left ventricular assist device implantation.
