Novel full-flow valves, impact on early mitral post-replacement period: a non-randomised controlled cohort trial

Кубанский научный медицинский вестник, 2021
Background. Among cardiovascular diseases, valve pathology of various aetiology comprises a primary factor of chronic heart failure. Mitral valve diseases afflict over half of all patients with acquired heart defects. Today’s long-term outcomes of mitral

What does it mean? Translating anatomical language to engage public audiences

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The language of anatomy, with its roots in Ancient Greek and Roman languages, is complex and unfamiliar to many. Its complexity creates a significant barrier to public knowledge and understanding of anatomy—many members of the public find themselves asking “what does it mean?”, and this can manifest as poor health literacy and outcomes.

A Rare Culprit of Infective Endocarditis in an IV Drug User: Burkholderia cepacia

Case Reports in Medicine, 2019
Infective endocarditis (IE) is an infection of the cardiac native or prosthetic valves typically caused by Staphylococcus aureus, viridans streptococci group, and coagulase-negative staphylococci. Risk factors include congenital heart disease, structural

Anticoagulation intensity and outcomes among southeast‐Asians with moderate‐to‐severe mitral valve stenosis

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Objective To determine the optimal anticoagulation intensity of warfarin in a South‐East Asian population with moderate‐to‐severe rheumatic mitral stenosis. Methods A multicentre, retrospective study examined patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis who had not undergone valve replacement or repair and required long‐term warfarin therapy at two ...

Transplante de valva mitral heteróloga: Nova alternativa cirúrgica: estudo clínico inicial Heterologous mitral valve transplant: New surgical technique: initial clinical trial

Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 1993
A substituição da valva mitral tem sido realizada, nestes 30 anos, usando-se o modelo aórtico. Embora o resultado clínico, na maioria dos pacientes seja satisfatório, existem, restrições específicas, tanto entre as biopróteses, como nas próteses ...

The role of transcatheter mitral valve therapy in heart failure [PDF]

European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2019
Mitral valve regurgitation is detected in up to 75% of patients with heart failure. Interventional mitral valve therapies can be used to treat mitral regurgitation with very low morbidity and mortality rates and minimal invasiveness. Devices intended for the replacement of the mitral valve still require significant development and refinement before ...

Emergent Cardiac Surgery After Transcatheter Structural Heart Procedures: Narrative Review

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transcatheter structural heart procedures have become standard therapy for elderly patients with high surgical risk. Over time, these procedures have significantly increased worldwide, accompanied by a concomitant reduction of major complications, including those requiring emergent cardiac surgery (ECS).

Shared gene expression profiles in developing heart valves and osteoblast progenitor cells.

Physiological Genomics, 2008
The atrioventricular (AV) valves of the heart develop from undifferentiated mesenchymal endocardial cushions, which later mature into stratified valves with diversified extracellular matrix (ECM).

Real Time Hemodynamic Monitoring During M‐TEER Using Electrical Cardiometry

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Mitral regurgitation is a common valvular dysfunction causing patient morbidity and mortality. Mitral transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) allows grasping of valvular leaflets and approximation via a small implant, thus reducing mitral regurgitation (MR).
