Acute Ischemic Stroke After Percutaneous Cardiac Intervention in an Elderly Patient

International Journal of Gerontology, 2010
Because of tremendous progress in the field of interventional cardiology and maturation in operator techniques, cardiac catheterization and percutaneous cardiac intervention have steadily become safer with improved outcomes.

Clinical Anatomy of the Left and Right Atrial Appendages in Humans: Comparative and Developmental Perspective

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.

Pathophysiologic Consequences of Early Coarctation Stenting in a Longitudinal Porcine Model

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Novel stent technologies offer early intravascular treatment options for coarctation (COA). Mid‐to‐long‐term cardiovascular responses to early COA stent interventions are undefined. Aims We studied a porcine model of COA, with and without early stent implantation with serial dilation to adult aortic diameters, aiming to define ...

Same‐Day Discharge After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: Who, When, and How?

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The burden of severe aortic stenosis requiring treatment is growing due to ageing populations. This places increased demands on health resources due to the growing number of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) procedures and hospital bed occupancy.

The Impact of a Visualized Steerable Sheath on Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation for First‐Time Atrial Fibrillation Ablation: A Prospective, Randomized, Single‐Blind Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background A 3D electroanatomical mapping (3D‐EAM) visualized steerable sheath was designed to improve catheter placement and reduce radiation exposure during ablation, an established treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF). However, prospective randomized data comparing the procedural and clinical outcomes of visualized and non‐visualized ...

Comparative Outcomes of Transcatheter Versus Surgical Pulmonary Valve Replacement in Adults With Congenital Heart Disease

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pulmonary valve replacement is frequently required in adults with congenital heart disease (CHD). Comparative real‐world outcomes between percutaneous transcatheter pulmonary valve implantation (TPVR) and surgical pulmonary valve replacement (SPVR) remain incompletely characterized. We evaluated outcomes and resource utilization for

Lower AKI Risk and Higher Survival With Microaxial Flow Pump Support During Elective PCI: A Propensity Score‐Matched Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with worse outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Previous, smaller studies suggested nephroprotective effects of micro‐axial flow pump (mAFP) during PCI. This study aimed to compare renal outcomes of high‐risk PCI with mAFP or intraaortic balloon pump (IABP) support.

Association of Hospital Volume With Outcomes of Pulmonary Embolism in the United States

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pulmonary embolism (PE) remains a leading cause of mortality in the United States. While prior studies show improved outcomes at higher‐volume centers, the understanding of procedural utilization remains limited. Aims Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the association of hospital PE volume and intervention utilization with ...
