Effects of a Personalized Nurse-Led Educational Program for New Patients Receiving Oral Anticoagulant Therapy after Mechanical Heart Valve Prosthesis Implantation on Adherence to Treatment. [PDF]
Life-long anticoagulant therapy is mandatory for patients who undergo heart valve replacement with implantation of a mechanical prosthesis. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of a nurse-led patient educational program concerning oral anticoagulant therapy intake after heart valve replacement surgery on patients' knowledge of important

Single-Session Transcatheter Aortic and Tricuspid Valve-in-Valve Implantation in a Patient with Prior Multivalve Surgery and a Chronic Transvenous Pacing Lead: A Case-Based Review of Procedural Strategy [PDF]
Background: The population of patients surviving previous multivalve surgery is expanding, and structural Heart Teams increasingly encounter complex multivalvular disease requiring reintervention, for which redo surgery carries prohibitive risk.

Association of Implantation Depth With Hemodynamics and Mechanical Consequences in Small Valve-In-Valve TAVR [PDF]
Background: Valve-in-valve (ViV) transcatheter aortic valve replacement in small surgical bioprostheses is often limited by residual gradients and prosthesis-patient mismatch.

This study was done to assess the results of percutaneous heart valve (PHV) implantation in non-surgical patients with end-stage calcific aortic stenosis.Replacement of PHV has been shown to be feasible in animals and humans. We developed a PHV composed of three pericardial leaflets inserted within a balloon-expandable stainless steel stent.

The structural-geometric and functional parameters of the heart in patients after mitral prosthetics with new full-flow valves in the long-term period [PDF]
Aim. To compare the results of mitral valve replacement with the full-flow mechanical valve MedInzh-ST and the classical prosthesis MedInzh-2, to learn the structural and functional parameters of the heart depending from the prosthesis in the long-tern ...
