In anticoagulated AF patients, those with native valve involvement (EHRA 2) have a worse prognosis than patients without valve involvement (EHRA 3). The presence of native valvular disease is shown as an independent risk factor for adverse outcomes. ABSTRACT Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) in association with native valvular heart disease (VHD) is ...

Paravalvular leakage after mitral valve replacement: improved long-term survival with aggressive surgery? [PDF]
Background: Following mitral valve replacement, surgical closure of paravalvular leaks is usually advised in severely symptomatic patients and in those requiring blood transfusions for persisting haemolysis.

This systematic review aims to determine whether MVS reduces the incidence of VA and SCD in patients with MVP. Available studies show a likely reduction when surgery is performed in line with current guideline‐directed indications; however, a residual risk of VA and SCD remains.

Impact of Aortomitral Continuity Calcification on Conduction Disturbances After TAVI with the Myval Valve. Abstract Background Given the anatomical proximity of the cardiac conduction system, aortomitral continuity calcification (AMCC) may contribute to conduction disturbances (CD) during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) due to radial ...

Design of a Soft Robotic Artificial Cardiac Wall
ABSTRACT Background In cardiovascular engineering, the recent introduction of soft robotic technologies sheds new light on the future of implantable cardiac devices, enabling the replication of complex bioinspired architectures and motions. To support human heart function, assistive devices and total artificial hearts have been developed.

Clinical Results for Cardiovascular Xenografts Treated With Novel Anticalcification Protocols
This study demonstrates the safety, efficacy, and clinical performance of the tissue‐engineered Periborn bovine pericardial scaffold treated with our novel anticalcification protocols for surgical repair of a variety of cardiovascular diseases. The overall probability of freedom from Periborn‐related reoperation was 95.4% ± 3.2% at 9 years.
