Transcatheter aorticvalve replacement (TAVR) has become a leading treatment for aorticstenosis, but managing thromboembolic and bleeding risks post-procedure remains challenging. This review examines current evidence on antithrombotic therapy after TAVR.
Bicuspid aorticvalve (BAV), the most common congenital cardiac anomaly, predisposes individuals to aorticstenosis and regurgitation due to valve degeneration.
This Viewpoint advocates for prompt aorticvalve replacement (rather than clinical surveillance) as the default strategy for patients with asymptomatic severe aorticstenosis.
ObjectivesRegistered, prospective, multicenter study of the short-term clinical outcomes of a novel transcatheter aorticvalve system (Xcor system, Saint Medical Technology, Inc.,
Background In congenital aorticstenosis (CAS), commissurotomy is an option in patients not suitable to receive a valve prosthesis. However, there is often a need for future additional interventions on the aorticvalve. The fate of the aorticvalve is, however, essentially unknown.
Calcific aorticvalve disease (CAVD) is a common cardiovascular condition in the elderly population. Research has shown that lncRNAs participate in the pathological process underlying CAVD by regulating osteogenic differentiation and inflammatory response of valve interstitial cells.
The NOTION trial, a pioneering study, sought to compare the long-term clinical and bioprosthesis outcomes of Transcatheter AorticValve Implantation (TAVI) versus Surgical AorticValve Replacement (SAVR) in patients with severe aorticvalvestenosis (AS) at lower surgical risk.
Background Bicuspid aorticvalve (BAV) is the most common congenital heart defect in adults, often leading to complications such as thoracic aortic aneurysms and aorticstenosis. While BAV is frequently associated with 22q11.2
A significant proportion of patients with severe aorticstenosis (AS) undergoing transcatheter aorticvalve implantation (TAVI) have concomitant coronary artery disease (CAD). The best way to treat these patients is contentious.
Background Subclinical leaflet thrombosis (SLT) is a common complication after transcatheter aorticvalve replacement (TAVR). Methods This prospective cohort study consecutively enrolled patients with severe symptomatic aorticstenosis who underwent successful TAVR.
IntroductionSince TAVR was approved for lower-risk aorticstenosis (AS) patients, managing post-implantation conduction disturbances has become crucial, especially with self-expanding heart valves (SEV).
Valvular heart disease, including calcific or degenerative aorticstenosis (AS), is increasingly prevalent among the older adult population. Over the last few decades, treatment of severe AS has been revolutionised following the development of transcatheter aorticvalve replacement (TAVR).
AorticStenosis (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.
Aorticstenosis is a narrowing of the aorticvalve which prevents the aortic leaflets from opening and closing properly. Patients with aorticstenosis often have heart murmurs and experience debilitating symptoms including chest pain, dizziness, fatigue, shortness of breath and an irregular heartbeat.
Background Cardiogenic shock (CS) induced by severe aorticstenosis (AS) is a life-threatening condition with high mortality. Despite advancements in emergency interventions, the optimal treatment approach remains uncertain.
Background A quarter of patients with severe aorticstenosis (AS) were asymptomatic, and only a third of them survived at the end of 4 years. Only a select subset of these patients was recommended for aorticvalve replacement (AVR) by the current American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association guidelines.
The global, randomized trial ( envisiontrial.com ) will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Abbott’s minimally invasive Navitor transcatheter aorticvalve implantation (TAVI) system in approximately 1,500 patients at intermediate or low surgical risk with severe aorticstenosis (narrowing of the aorticvalve).
Transcatheter aorticvalve implantation (TAVI) was superior to surgical aorticvalve replacement for reducing death, stroke or rehospitalization in women with severe aorticstenosis, according to late-breaking research presented in a Hot Line session today at ESC Congress 2024.
(MedPage Today) -- Transcatheter aorticvalve replacement (TAVR) yielded clinical benefit when given early in the disease process while patients still had no symptoms or other indication for aorticvalve replacement, according to the EARLY TAVR.
Getty Images milla1cf Mon, 01/29/2024 - 14:24 January 29, 2024 — Despite national guidelines recommending surgical aorticvalve replacement (SAVR) for patients under age 65 with severe aorticstenosis , many hospitals are still opting for a nonsurgical approach in patients under 60—possibly with poorer survival rates.
Data shows, versus surgery, the Evolut transcatheter aorticvalve replacement (TAVR) system delivers a numerically lower rate of all-cause mortality or disabling stroke at five years, strong valve performance and durable clinical outcomes. Reardon, M.D.,
Among patients with asymptomatic severe aorticstenosis, early TAVR was superior to clinical surveillance in reducing the incidence of death, stroke, or unplanned hospitalization for cardiovascular causes.
The goal of the AVATAR trial was to evaluate aorticvalve replacement (AVR) compared with conservative therapy among patients with asymptomatic severe aorticstenosis.
In the 22 years since Professor Alain Cribier performed the first transcatheter aorticvalve implantation (TAVI) in Rouen in France, treatment pathways for patients with aorticvalvestenosis have evolved rapidly.
milla1cf Thu, 03/28/2024 - 07:30 March 28, 2024 — Medtronic plc, a global leader in healthcare technology, announced that the United States Food and Drug Administration ( FDA ) has approved the Evolut FX+ transcatheter aorticvalve replacement (TAVR) system for the treatment of symptomatic severe aorticstenosis.
Objectives The clinical outcomes of transcatheter aorticvalve replacement (TAVR) in patients with aorticstenosis (AS) and concomitant active cancer remain insufficiently explored. This study aimed to assess the midterm outcomes of TAVR in patients diagnosed with AS and active cancer.
The Most Common Form of HVD One of the most prevalent and serious forms of heart valve disease is aorticstenosis (AS), a condition characterized by the narrowing of the aorticvalve opening, which affects approximately 5% of adults over 65a number expected to more than double by 2050.
Patients with severe aorticstenosis (AS) and left ventricular (LV) dysfunction demonstrate improvement in left ventricular injection fraction (LVEF) after aorticvalve replacement (AVR). The timing and magnit.
The goal of the DEDICATE-DZHK6 trial was to evaluate transcatheter aorticvalve implantation (TAVI) compared with surgical aorticvalve replacement (SAVR) among patients with severe aorticstenosis and low to intermediate surgical risk.
Objective Aorticstenosis (AS) shares pathophysiological similarities with atherosclerosis including active inflammation. CT attenuation of perivascular adipose tissue provides a measure of vascular inflammation that is linked to prognosis and has the potential to be applied to the aorticvalve. HU, p=0.099).
The goal of the VIVA trial was to evaluate transcatheter aorticvalve replacement (TAVR) compared with surgical aorticvalve replacement (SAVR) among patients with severe aorticstenosis and a small aortic annulus.
Aorticvalve calcification (AVC) is an underlying pathophysiological mechanism in aorticstenosis, which shares many risk factors with diabetes. However, the association between dysglycemia and early stages of.
Transcatheter aorticvalve replacement (TAVR) has increased in utilization since its approval for management of aorticstenosis patients across all risk strata. We report a rare case of aorticvalve leaflet av.
Transcatheter aorticvalve replacement (TAVR) is the standard treatment for severe aorticstenosis, but post-TAVR leaflet thrombus, identified by hypoattenuated leaflet thickening (HALT), poses potential risks like cerebral thromboembolic events. had thrombus at any aorticvalve complex. Specifically, 14.2%
Transcript of the video: Closure line of aorticvalve on M-Mode echocardiogram, is seen as central line, while in bicuspid aorticvalve, it is an eccentric closure, nearer to one of the walls of the aorta. That is an important feature of bicuspid aorticvalve on M-Mode echocardiogram. This is a closure line.
