Valvar heart disease and prosthetic heart valves

BMJ, 2002
Thromboembolism and anticoagulant related bleeding are major life threatening complications in patients with valvar heart disease and those with prosthetic heart valves. In these patients effective and safe antithrombotic therapy is indicated to reduce the risks of thromboembolism while keeping bleeding complications to a minimum.

Natural history of aortic valve disease after rheumatic mitral valve surgery: implications for concomitant aortic intervention

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Background Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) frequently affects both mitral and aortic valves. While mitral valve replacement (MVR) is often prioritized, the natural history of coexisting aortic valve disease particularly when mild or moderate is less well ...

Ventricular pressure-volume loop and other heart function metrics can elucidate etiology of failure of TAVI and interventions

REC: Interventional Cardiology (English Ed.)
Aortic valve stenosis is one of the most acute and chronic cardiovascular disease conditions. Bicuspid aortic valve is the most common congenital heart abnormality and affected individuals have a 50% chance of developing severe aortic valve ...

Local versus general anesthesia for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVR)- systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

, 2014
The hypothesis of this study was that local anesthesia with monitored anesthesia care (MAC) is not harmful in comparison to general anesthesia (GA) for patients undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVR).TAVR is a rapidly spreading ...

Safety and Effectiveness of a High‐Dose, Tailored Tissue Plasminogen Activator Therapy Protocol: A Joint Pediatric Hematology and Cardiac ICU Quality Improvement Initiative Analysis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric thromboembolism is increasingly encountered in critical care. Systemic thrombolysis with tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) facilitates vessel or valve patency, yet pediatric‐specific protocols remain undefined, and safety concerns persist. Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of a tailored, prolonged systemic tPA

Application of Petersen graph pattern technique for automated detection of heart valve diseases with PCG signals

, 2021
This work aimed to use machine learning to diagnose four heart valve disease conditions and normal heart sounds. This paper proposed the automated classification of normal, aortic stenosis, mitral valve prolapse, mitral stenosis, and mitral regurgitation

Prediction of hospital mortality in patients with left-sided infective endocarditis using a score in the first hours of admission

Scientific Reports
Infective endocarditis is an infection of the endocardium, associated with high morbidity and mortality, particularly when the left heart chambers are involved. Timely diagnosis and appropriate intervention can attenuate these outcomes.
