THE ROLE OF ANTICOAGULATION THERAPY IN PATIENTS WITH PROSTHETIC HEART VALVES

open access: yesKlinicist, 2016
Cardiac surgery is the only radical method of treatment of valvular defects (congenital or acquired): valve preservation procedures or prosthetics operations.

Mid-term results of open transaortic implantation of the «MedLab-CT» prosthesis: prospective clinical study [PDF]

open access: yesКардиоСоматика, 2022
Aim. To evaluate the mid-term clinical and hemodynamic results of open transaortic implantation of the balloon-expandable prosthesis MedLab-CT in patients with high surgical risk. Material and methods. The study included 41 patients (mean age 65.711.7

Porcine pulmonary valve decellularization with NaOH-based vs detergent process: preliminary in vitro and in vivo assessments

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2018
Background Glutaraldehyde fixed xenogeneic heart valve prosthesis are hindered by calcification and lack of growth potential. The aim of tissue decellularization is to remove tissue antigenicity, avoiding the use of glutaraldehyde and improve valve ...

Bridging aortic valve surgery to 21st century. what can a surgeon do [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Aortic valve stenosis is the most clinically relevant valvular heart disease in the elderlies. Surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) represented, for decades, the standard of care for the treatment of severe aortic stenosis.

Detecting Aortic Valve Anomaly From Induced Murmurs: Insights From Computational Hemodynamic Models

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Patients who receive transcatheter aortic valve replacement are at risk for leaflet thrombosis-related complications, and can benefit from continuous, longitudinal monitoring of the prosthesis.

Incidence of valvular regurgitation and leaflet perforation by using automated titanium fasteners (CORKNOT®) in heart valve repair or replacement: less usual than reported

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2021
Background CORKNOT® facilitates a reduction in cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) time, aortic cross clamp (ACC) time and operative time, but reported to be associated with other complications. We aim to quantify the incidence of valvular complications related

Long-term survival following aortic valve replacement : the influence of age, prosthesis-patient mismatch and indexed effective orifice area [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Prosthesis-patient mismatch (PPM) has been linked to reduced long-term survival after aortic valve replacement. We studied the influence of age, PPM and indexed effective orifice area (iEOA) in this setting. Methods Patients (n=586) subjected

Bioprosthetic aortic valve diameter and thickness are directly related to leaflet fluttering: Results from a combined experimental and computational modeling studyCentral MessagePerspective

open access: yesJTCVS Open, 2021
Objective: Bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs) are commonly used in surgical and percutaneous valve replacement. The durability of percutaneous valve replacement is unknown, but surgical valves have been shown to require reintervention after 10 to 15 years.

Prediction of Turbulent Shear Stresses through Dysfunctional Bileaflet Mechanical Heart Valves using Computational Fluid Dynamics

open access: yes, 2018
There are more than 300,000 heart valves implanted annually worldwide with about 50% of them being mechanical valves. The heart valve replacement is often a common treatment for severe valvular disease.
