Comparison of Taurolock solution with heparin as lock solution of tunneled catheters

Saudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation
Introduction: The employment of dialysis catheters can result in catheter-related blood stream infections (CRBSI), leads to hospitalization, morbidity, and mortality. Citrate-taurolidine lock solution can lower the occurrence of CRBSI.

Percutaneous Transaxillary Access for Large‐Bore Cardiovascular Interventions: Evidence, Technique, and Complication Management

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Percutaneous transaxillary access is an established alternative to transfemoral large‐bore arterial access for transcatheter structural heart interventions and mechanical circulatory support (MCS). Although useful for overcoming hostile iliofemoral anatomy and providing prolonged support and patient mobilization in case of MCS, the axillary ...

Successful Percutaneous Retrieval of an Embolized MitraClip From the Right Subclavian Artery

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Single leaflet device attachment (SLDA) after mitral transcatheter valve edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) has been reported in up to 5% of patients. However, complete embolization of the M‐TEER device is exceedingly rare. Device retrievals in all previously reported cases were completed by vascular surgery cut down at the end. In this case, we are

Spatial Mismatch Between Angiographic Obstruction and Plaque Destabilization in Acute Coronary Syndromes: A Conceptual Narrative Review

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The identification of the “culprit lesion” in acute coronary syndromes (ACS) traditionally relies on coronary angiography, assuming that the most severe stenosis, abrupt occlusion, or largest filling defect marks the site of plaque destabilization.

Mechanisms and Management of Acquired Aseptic Intracardiac Communications After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: Single‐Center Case Series Insights

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Acquired aseptic intracardiac communications (AICCs) are rare but clinically relevant structural complications following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), typically resulting from mechanical injury to the aortic annulus, interventricular septum, or adjacent structures.

Urogenital Infection Risk Associated With SGLT2 Inhibitors Versus DPP‐4 Inhibitors in Type 2 Diabetes and Chronic Kidney Disease: A Nationwide Target Trial Emulation

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Although sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are recommended for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD), concerns regarding urogenital infections persist. Therefore, we evaluated the risk of urinary tract infection (UTI) and genital tract infection (GTI) after SGLT2i initiation in this population ...
