Optimum INR intensity and therapeutic INR control in patients with mechanical heart valve prosthesis on warfarin oral anticoagulation at Dr George Mukhari academic hospital: a three-year retrospective study

South African Family Practice, 2018
Background: Available evidence suggest that the optimum prothrombin time-international normalised ratio (PT-INR) intensities recommended for anticoagulation of patients with mechanical heart valve prosthesis may not apply to all race groups.

Replacement of aortic valve flaps with an autopericardium using the S. Ozaki technique

Вестник хирургии имени И.И. Грекова, 2023
Classical aortic valve replacement is often fraught with negative outcomes for patients. When replacing the aortic valve with a mechanical valve prosthesis, the patient is associated for life with the use of indirect anticoagulants, which often leads to ...

The First Experience of Aortic Valve Repeated Replacement Using the “Valve in Valve” Technique in a Patient With Dysfunction of a Biological Prosthesis

Неотложная медицинская помощь, 2021
Introduction. Aortic valve replacement in cardiopulmonary bypass with suture fixation of the prosthesis is the “gold standard” in cardiac surgery. Currently, the frequency of use of heart valve bioprostheses is increasing in older patients.
