Background Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has been established as an alternative to surgery for high‐risk aortic regurgitation (AR) patients. However, its applicability to low‐ and intermediate‐risk populations remains under investigation.

Background Cardiovascular disease increases with age in both sexes. Treatment can require cardiac surgery, where the hearts are pre-treated with protective cardioplegic solution before ischemia and reperfusion (I/R).

Zinc supplementation enhances the effectiveness of St. Thomas' Hospital no. 2 cardioplegic solution in an in vitro model of hypothermic cardiac arrest [PDF]
The present study was done to assess the effectiveness of a zinc–supplemented cardioplegic solution in an in vitro model of hypothermic arrest. Isolated hearts were perfused in the nonworking mode.

Substrate enhancement of cardioplegic solution: Experimental studies and clinical evaluation
The development of myocardial protective strategies depends on a complete understanding of the pathophysiology of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion. This article reviews the rationale for inclusion of metabolic substrates in cardioplegic solutions on ...

Deoxygenated blood minimizes adherence of sonicated albumin microbubbles during cardioplegic arrest and after blood reperfusion: Experimental and clinical observations with myocardial contrast echocardiography [PDF]
Both administration of cardioplegic solution and blood reperfusion result in endothelial dysfunction. The transit rate of albumin microbubbles during myocardial contrast echocardiography may reflect endothelial injury.

Captopril-induced glutamate release at the start of reperfusion after cold cardioplegic storage of pig hearts [PDF]
Objective: We sought to evaluate the effects of captopril on glucose-related metabolism during hypothermic cardioplegic storage and subsequent reperfusion.

Should Ventricular Fibrillation Be Induced Prior to the Infusion of Cardioplegic Solution?
The present study evaluates the metabolic effects on the left ventricular energy stores of a clinically used cardioplegic solution that was infused into the ascending aorta of pigs while the heart was either fibrillating (induced ventricular fibrillation)
