Laboratory animal anesthesia classification (LAAC) [PDF]

, 2022
Abstract Anesthesia and analgesia (AA) are major components of animal research. However, various studies have shown an undesirable quality of AA reporting and use in research proposals and even high impact articles. Part of the problem may be related to a lack of special training in animal anesthesia among researchers. This causes an absence of

DAPT Is Comparable to OAC Following LAAC With WATCHMAN FLX [PDF]

JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2023
Left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) is an approved alternative for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation for patients with an "appropriate rationale" to avoid long-term oral anticoagulation (OAC). Many patients undergoing LAAO are at high risk of bleeding.This study sought to investigate whether dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is a safe ...

Indications and Outcome in Patients Undergoing Left Atrial Appendage Closure—The Austrian LAAC Registry [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2020
Background: Complete real-world data on the indications and outcomes of left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) outside of clinical trials are rare. In this study, we stratified patients undergoing LAAC by indication groups. Methods: This analysis of the national multicentre Austrian LAAC Registry comprised all patients that underwent LAAC up until 2018 ...

What characterizes device‐related thrombosis following LAAC, if ejection fraction fails to shine? [PDF]

Echocardiography
AbstractCardiac compartmental size depends on sex, with smaller values found in (healthy) women compared to a matched group of men. Various types of heart disease may cause dilation of the affected chamber. For example, atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with enlarged left atrial (LA) size, often also implying increased left ventricular (LV) size ...

Percutaneous Left Atrial Appendage Closure in Patients With Cardioembolic Breakthrough Stroke: An International Observational Study. [PDF]

Eur J Neurol
Main Results of the Study. ABSTRACT Background Patients with non‐valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) who experience an ischemic stroke despite oral anticoagulation (OAC) are at particularly high risk of recurrence, with a reported annualized ischemic stroke rate of 5.3%–8.9%. The optimal strategy for secondary prevention in these patients remains unknown.

Different Techniques of Surgical Left Atrial Appendage Closure and Their Efficacy: A Systematic Review

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Background: Atrial fibrillation has been identified as an independent risk factor for thromboembolic events. Since 1948 different surgical techniques have described the feasibility and the rationale of left atrial surgical appendage closure.
