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

ABSTRACT Novel adjuvant hemostatic agents are increasingly used in surgical procedures to achieve hemostasis. We present a case of embolisation of hemostatic agents during a neurosurgical operation, causing massive PE requiring venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support, in a 7‐year‐old boy.

Abstract Aims Mortality in cardiogenic shock (CS) remains elevated, with the potential for CS causes to impact prognosis and risk stratification. The aim was to investigate in‐hospital prognosis and mortality in CS patients according to aetiology. We also assessed the prognostic accuracy of CardShock and IABP‐SHOCK II scores.
