Development of a patient-specific finite element model of the Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) procedure [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
This work reports on a study to develop a patient-specific finite element model of the Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation procedure, using a model of a balloon-expandable percutaneous prosthetic aortic valve as a framework for the prediction of its performance.

Rapid Diagnostic Testing for Infective Endocarditis and Myocarditis Using Nanopore Targeted Sequencing

open access: yesiLABMED, EarlyView.
This research presents a method based on nanopore targeted sequencing (NTS) with pathogen‐specific panels for testing infective endocarditis (IE) and myocarditis. The NTS achieved a detection limit of 20 copies/test for the IE target panel and 10 copies/test for the myocarditis target panel.

Assessment Of Response To Heart Failure Therapy: Ventricular Volume Changes Versus Shape Changes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The prolate ellipsoid left ventricular geometry is crucial for its unique contraction and relaxation patterns. Perturbations in optimal cardiac function preceding overt heart failure ensue when this ellipsoid shape assumes a more spherical configuration.

A new technological system to revolutionize the management of valvular heart diseases: transcatheter aortic valve for the treatment of aortic stenosis [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
The goal of this study is a technology analysis of a revolution for the management of valvular heart diseases given by new technological system based on transcatheter artificial aortic valve, a delivery catheter and a loading system for the treatment of aortic stenosis (a narrowing of the aortic valve because of calcium build up that restricts blood ...

Prenatal Diagnosis and Clinical Phenotypic Heterogeneity of 22q11.2 Microdeletion Syndrome Based on a Single Center Retrospective Study

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Chromosome 22q11.2 microdeletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) is a common congenital disorder with high clinical phenotypic heterogeneity. In this study, we retrospectively investigated the incidence of prenatal diagnosis of 22q11.2DS in a single center and summarized its clinical manifestations to expand the phenotypic database ABSTRACT Objective To ...

Outcome of Surgery for Aortic Regurgitation Associated with Ventricular Septal Defect

open access: yesJournal of Rawalpindi Medical College, 2011
Background: To evaluate the short term outcome of patients undergoing surgery for aortic valve regurgitation (AR) associated with ventricular septal defect (VSD). Patients and Methods: In this prospective study forty patients of aortic regurgitation with

Unusual cause of central aortic prosthetic regurgitation during transcatheter replacement

open access: yesRevista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2016
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is an increasingly common procedure for the treatment of aortic stenosis in elderly patients with comorbidities that prevent the use of standard surgery.

Quadricuspid Aortic Valve: Report of Two Cases and Brief Review

open access: yesCase Reports in Cardiology, 2019
Quadricuspid aortic valve (QAV) is a rare congenital cardiac defect characterized by the presence of four aortic valve leaflets of equal or varying sizes. Even rarer is its clinical presentation with aortic stenosis. Diagnosis of QAV could be challenging
