Three Ventricular Assist Devices (True TriVAD) as Bridge to Durable Biventricular Support (BiVAD) in LVAD Patient With Severe Aortic Regurgitation

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
An LVAD patient with severe aortic regurgitation (AR) developed right heart failure and multi‐organ dysfunction (MOD). tRVAD support caused LV overload and pulmonary edema. Impella 5.5 implantation successfully unloaded the LV and stabilized the patient, enabling durable RVAD implantation with surgical aortic valve replacement.

Hemocompatibility and Long‐Term Outcomes in HeartWare Versus HeartMate II Versus HeartMate 3: Multicenter Real‐World Cohort

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Multicenter real‐world cohort (n = 327) comparing LVADs: HeartMate 3 (HM3), HeartMate II (HMII), and HeartWare (HVAD). HM3 showed superior long‐term survival versus legacy devices, driven by fewer hemocompatibility‐related adverse events, especially pump thrombosis and ischemic stroke, while major bleeding was similar across devices.

Pharmacological inhibition of hydroxysteroid 11‐beta dehydrogenase type 1 (11‐βHSD1) after myocardial infarction preserves cardiac function in a translational mini‐pig model

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Plasma glucocorticoids increase acutely after MI, thereafter tissue levels are amplified selectively within cells expressing 11‐ßhydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11‐ßHSD1) that regenerates active glucocorticoids from circulating metabolites.

Cardiovascular Health in Women—Across the Lifespan

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality and morbidity among women worldwide. However, CVD continues to be perceived as a predominantly male issue. CVD in women therefore remains understudied, underrecognized and undertreated.

Surgical versus transcatheter aortic valve replacement: the future role of robotic aortic valve replacement.

open access: yesASVIDE
Patients desire a minimally invasive option for management of their valve disease. As transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) remains a straightforward short-term solution, it is incumbent upon surgeons to provide an alternative, and preferably non-sternotomy or anterior chest option with the longitudinal benefits of surgical aortic valve ...

Comparative analysis of metabolic and functional cardiac alterations in diet‐ and genetically induced mouse models of cardiac dysfunction

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Dietary and genetic stress trigger different routes to heart failure. In mice, a carbohydrate‐free high‐fat diet caused mitochondrial dysfunction and impaired energy production with preserved pumping function, while genetic obesity led to heart enlargement, fibrosis, and reduced function.

A Descriptive Qualitative Study of Patient and Carer Perspectives on the Acceptability of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Nursing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To provide a structured analysis of the acceptability of transcatheter aortic valve implantation to support clinical conversations, decision making and recovery for older adults with aortic stenosis and their carers. Background While transcatheter aortic valve implantation is an effective treatment for heart valve disease, its ...

Long‐Term Follow‐Up of Radiofrequency Slow Pathway Ablation for Atrioventricular Nodal Re‐Entrant Tachycardia: Late Outcomes

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Slow pathway radiofrequency ablation is an effective treatment for atrioventricular nodal re‐entrant tachycardia (AVNRT) but has been reported in some series to result in late atrioventricular block. We examined our local experience with a retrospective review. Methods A retrospective review of all patients undergoing slow pathway

Intravascular Lithotripsy to Facilitate Extraction of Very Old Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices Leads

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background One of the challenges encountered when extracting transvenous leads with long dwell times is the presence of dense calcifications encasing the leads. This is the most likely reason for failure to advance a laser extraction sheath.
