Valvular Heart Disease and Its Association With Death in Advanced Heart Failure [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Valvular heart disease contributes to symptomatic heart failure, but its prevalence and prognostic significance in advanced heart failure is not well understood. Methods This retrospective population‐based cohort study included adult residents

Mitral valve interventions in heart failure [PDF]

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, 2018
AbstractSecondary mitral regurgitation (MR) results from left ventricular dilatation and dysfunction. Quantification of secondary MR is challenging because of the underlying myocardial disease. Clinical and echocardiographic evaluation requires a multi‐parametric approach.

Transapical Beating Heart Mitral Valve Repair [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2010
Repair of mitral valve (MV) leaflet prolapse using chordal replacement is an established procedure in open heart surgery for the treatment of mitral regurgitation (MR). The technique has proven high reproducibility and excellent long-term outcomes for posterior leaflet prolaspe, with freedom from valve-related reoperation of >95%.1, 2 Striving toward a

Mitral valve repair in heart failure [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, 2000
AbstractMitral regurgitation (MR) is a frequent complication of end‐stage heart failure. Historically, these patients were either managed medically or with mitral valve replacement, both associated with poor outcomes. Mitral valve repair via an ‘undersized’ annuloplasty repair is safe and effectively corrects MR in heart‐failure patients.

Beating-heart mitral valve chordal replacement [PDF]

open access: yes2011 Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2011
Replacing open-heart surgical procedures with beating-heart interventions substantially decreases the trauma and risk of a procedure. One of the most challenging procedures to perform on the beating heart is valve repair. To address this need, this paper proposes a tool for replacing mitral valve chordae to correct regurgitation. The chordae is secured

A rare case series of mechanical prosthetic heart valve structural deterioration presented as severe mitral regurgitation

open access: yesHeart Vessels and Transplantation, 2023
Objective: Structural valve deterioration in the form of stenosis or regurgitation or both though being a rare complication with newer generation mechanical heart valves can occur and can be critical.

Differential Biological Effects of Dietary Lipids and Irradiation on the Aorta, Aortic Valve, and the Mitral Valve

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
AimsDietary cholesterol and palmitic acid are risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) affecting the arteries and the heart valves. The ionizing radiation that is frequently used as an anticancer treatment promotes CVD.

Presence Of A Congenitally Bicuspid Aortic Valve Among Patients Having Combined Mitral And Aortic Valve Replacement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Although bicuspid aortic valve occurs in an estimated 1% of adults and mitral valve prolapse in an estimated 5% of adults, occurrence of the 2 in the same patient is infrequent.

Mixed Valvular Disease Following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement: Quantification and Systematic Differentiation Using Clinical Measurements and Image-Based Patient‐Specific In Silico Modeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background: Mixed valvular disease (MVD), mitral regurgitation (MR) from pre‐existing disease in conjunction with paravalvular leak (PVL) following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), is one of the most important stimuli for left ventricle (LV)
