Impact of Transjugular Intracardiac Echocardiography-Guided Self-Expandable Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation on Reduction of Conduction Disturbances

Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions

Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions, Ahead of Print. BACKGROUND:A high permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI) risk remains a concern of self-expandable transcatheter aortic valve implantation, despite the continued improvements in implantation methodology. There were no group differences in 30-day all-cause mortality (1.4%

Extracellular Matrix Proteins Improve Risk Prediction in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

Journal of the American Heart Association

BackgroundCardiac fibrosis is common in patients with severe aortic stenosis and an independent predictor of death. Combined with highsensitivity cardiac troponin T, circulating TIMP1 should be incorporated into risk stratification to identify patients undergoing TAVR who are at a higher risk of death. 95% CI, 2.69.7];P<0.001)

Abstract 4145296: Aortic Valve Hemodynamics in Liver Cirrhosis

Circulation

Circulation, Volume 150, Issue Suppl_1 , Page A4145296-A4145296, November 12, 2024. Aortic valve stenosis (AS) is often a contraindication to liver transplantation (LT). Aortic valve peak velocity (AVVmax) increased steadily as patients neared transplant and dropped significantly immediately after transplantation (Figure 1A).
