Cardiologists Train Large AI Model to Assess Heart Structure, Function

DAIC

The foundation model could identify implanted intracardiac devices like a pacemaker, implanted mitral valve repairs and aortic valves from the echocardiogram images. Key takeaways from the study include: EchoCLIP displayed strong performance when assessing cardiac function using heart images.

Outcomes Following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement for Aortic Stenosis in Patients With Type 0 Bicuspid, Type 1 Bicuspid, and Tricuspid Aortic Valves

Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions

BACKGROUND:Data concerning the outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve replacement in type 0 bicuspid aortic stenosis (AS) are scarce. Ascending aortic diameter was the single predictor of 1-year mortality in type 0 bicuspid patients (hazard ratio, 1.59 [95% CI, 1.03–2.44];P=0.035). Poverall=0.765; 1 year: 1.4%

Transcatheter versus surgical valve replacement in patients with bicuspid aortic valves: an updated meta-analysis

The British Journal of Cardiology

Patients with bicuspid aortic valves (BAV) are predisposed to the development of aortic stenosis. We performed a pairwise meta-analysis, comparing the efficacy of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) versus surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) in patients with BAV. to 4.58, p=0.04). to 4.58, p=0.04).

Predictors of post-TAVI conduction abnormalities in patients with bicuspid aortic valves

Open Heart

Objectives This study evaluates predictors of conduction abnormalities (CA) following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in patients with bicuspid aortic valves (BAV). Background TAVI is associated with CA that commonly necessitate a permanent pacemaker. The optimum cut-off for MSID was 1.25 to 41.00; p=0.01.
