Branch Pulmonary Artery Valve Implantation Reduces Pulmonary Regurgitation and Improves Right Ventricular Size/Function in Patients With Large Right Ventricular Outflow Tracts

, 2018
The authors sought to assess the intermediate-term effects of percutaneous placed valves in the branch pulmonary artery (PA) position.Most patients with large right ventricular outflow tracts (RVOTs) are excluded from available percutaneous pulmonary ...

"Vanishing" pulmonary valve stenosis

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2012
Both spontaneous resolution and progression of mild pulmonary valve stenosis (PS) have been reported. We reviewed characteristics of the pulmonary valve (PV) to determine factors that could influence resolution of mild PS.Fifteen asymptomatic pediatric patients with spontaneous resolution of isolated mild PS were retrospectively reviewed.There was no ...

Transthoracic pulmonary valve replacement for severe pulmonary regurgitation following pulmonary atresia repair with an intact ventricular septum: a case report

World Journal of Pediatric Surgery
Pulmonary atresia with an intact ventricular septum (PA/IVS) is a rare congenital heart disease. Pulmonary regurgitation is a major late postsurgical complication and pulmonary valve replacement is the mainstream treatment.We report the case of a 15-year-

Dynamically Actuated Reconfigurable Topographical Surface Enables Active Control of Implant‐Associated Infections

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A dynamically actuated reconfigurable topographical surface (DARTS) integrates contact‐mediated bactericidal nanotopography with programmable mechanical actuation to actively disrupt bacterial biofilms. Dynamic surface reconfiguration enhances bacterial killing and suppresses implant‐associated infections in vivo, providing a new strategy for active ...

An analysis of factors influencing pulmonary artery catheter passage through the tricuspid and pulmonary valves

JA Clinical Reports, 2020
Purpose A pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) has to pass the tricuspid and pulmonary valves for its proper placement. Although several factors were reported to hinder the placement, there have been no reports to identify the factors that prolong the ...
