BackgroundFollowing transcatheter aorticvalve replacement, acute coronary obstruction is infrequent but potentially life-threatening, while delayed coronary obstruction is even more uncommon.Case summaryA 69-year-old male underwent TAVR and subsequently developed an acute obstruction in the left main coronary artery.
Presentation title: QUALITY OF LIFE ASSESSMENT AT 30-DAYS FOLLOW-UP OF THE VALVOSOFT PIVOTAL STUDY ON SEVERE AORTICVALVE STENOSE PATIENTS" (control number 16930) Time and date: April 8, 2024 - 9:32 a.m.–9:42 A summary of the poster session will be published on the Journal of the American College of Cardiology’s website.
milla1cf Thu, 05/02/2024 - 10:09 May 2, 2024 — Artificial intelligence experts at Cedars-Sinai and the Smidt Heart Institute created a dataset with more than 1 million echocardiograms, or cardiac ultrasound videos, and their corresponding clinical interpretations. Image by Getty.
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted 510(k) clearance for its first-of-a-kind, AI-powered AISAP CARDIO point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) software platform. We know that structural heart disease and heart failure are the leading causes of hospitalization and morbidity in the U.S.
The blood culture revealed Rochebacterium caries, cardiac ultrasound detected vegetation, while brain and spleen abscesses manifested and progressively deteriorated. Despite a suboptimal response to anti-infective therapy, the patient ultimately underwent aorticvalve replacement.

Methods Experiments were performed on porcine ascending aorta with aorticvalves (n=12). Compliance was varied by inserting a Dacron graft close to the aorticvalve. cm 2 hole in one aortic cusp. Flow, RF, SV and aortic pressure were measured, aortic compliance with transoesophageal ultrasound probes.
Description of Case:A 64-year-old male with complex medical history, including infective endocarditis of the aorticvalve requiring surgical replacement with a bioprosthetic valve and recurrent infective endocarditis of the bioprosthetic valve, presented with two hours of crushing chest pain and found to have ST elevations.
Focusing on mitral and tricuspid valve diseases , Capstans treatment combines transcatheter implantation of a folded valve replacement with its X-ray and ultrasound-guided robot to align the low-profile implant with the beating heart valve.
It was notable for a normal cardiac ultrasound with no pericardial fluid, normal LV and RV function (though the quality was not sufficient to evaluate for wall motion abnormalities) and normal IVC dynamics. Intraoperative TEE noted "Type A aortic dissection arising 1.0 cm distal to the non-coronary cusp of the aorticvalve."
Smith comment: This patient did not have a bedside ultrasound. Had one been done, it would have shown a feature that is apparent on this ultrasound (however, this patient's LV function would not be as good as in this clip): This is recorded with the LV on the right. Look at the aortic outflow tract. What should be done?
During echocardiography, a transducer transmits the ultrasound beam towards the heart. It is used in the emergency department, at bedside, in the intensive care unit as well as in the operating room. Hence a basic knowledge is needed for all physicians and paramedics. Exact position and angulation will vary between individuals.
The next morning the patient went for his routine echocardiogram, where the operator noticed a dilated aortic root at 5.47 cm with severe aortic insufficiency. The team was notified and they ordered a stat aortagram which showed type A aortic dissection from the aorticvalve to the iliacs. Pericarditis?
Venn diagram highlighting the main similarities and differences between heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and aortic stenosis with preserved ejection fraction (ASpEF). Patients with ASpEF eligible for transcatheter aorticvalve replacement ( n = 125) also performed cardiac computed tomography (CT).
28, 2024 — Cardiawave SA, developer of Valvosoft Non-Invasive Ultrasound Therapy (NIUT) device for treating severe symptomatic calcific aortic stenosis (CAS), announced that the device met the primary endpoint in its pivotal study and improved or stabilized heart failure symptoms for 80.5 tim.hodson Thu, 11/07/2024 - 10:19 Oct.
I suspect pulmonary edema, but we are not given information on presence of B-lines on bedside ultrasound, or CXR findings. The patient was finally weaned to room air on day 4 and taken for a CT scan to evaluate the possibility of aorticvalve replacement. Or I suspect that there is OMI simultaneous with another pathology.
