TAVI Matches SAVR in Lower Risk Aortic Valve Patients: 10 year outcomes

Cardiology Update

FEBRUARY 11, 2024

The NOTION trial, a pioneering study, sought to compare the long-term clinical and bioprosthesis outcomes of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) versus Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement (SAVR) in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis (AS) at lower surgical risk.

Prosthetic valve thrombosis (PVT) in aortic valve and its complication coronary embolism is a very rare condition. We present a young patient with acute myocardi. Diagnosis and treatment process is challenging.

Systematic review and meta-analysis of early aortic valve replacement versus conservative therapy in patients with asymptomatic aortic valve stenosis with preserved left ventricle systolic function

Open Heart

JANUARY 8, 2024

Background A quarter of patients with severe aortic stenosis (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 aortic valve replacement (AVR) by the current American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association guidelines.

Background Myocardial infarction (MI) has been shown to induce fibrotic remodelling of the mitral and tricuspid valves. It is unknown whether MI also induces pathological remodelling of the aortic valve and alters aortic stenosis (AS) progression. vs –0.04±0.04 cm 2 /m 2 /year; p=0.004).

Abstract: Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is an interventional procedure performed in patients with severe aortic stenosis and often required perioperative antiplatelet therapy. Most previous studies have focused on antiplatelet therapy following TAVR. Copyright © 2023 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.

Background:Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is highly prevalent in patients with severe aortic stenosis undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions, Ahead of Print. Exposure of interest was PVD. Primary outcome was all-cause mortality.

First degree AV block can sometimes be a manifestation of diseases like rheumatic fever, a disease which affects predominantly the joints and the valves of the heart. First degree heart block can also occur in a heart attack involving the lower part of the heart known as inferior wall myocardial infarction.
