Open issues in transcatheter aortic valve implantation. Part 1: patient selection and treatment strategy for transcatheter aortic valve implantation. [PDF]
An exponential increase in the use of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in patients with severe aortic stenosis has been witnessed over the recent years. The current article reviews different areas of uncertainty related to patient selection.

Anesthetic considerations of percutaneous transcatheter aortic valve implantation: first attempt in Korea -A report of 2 cases- [PDF]
Conventional aortic valve replacement for severe aortic stenosis is associated with a high operative mortality in the elderly patients with significant comorbidities, including severe respiratory dysfunction, renal insufficiency, and compromised cardiac ...

Abstract Aims Mortality in cardiogenic shock (CS) remains elevated, with the potential for CS causes to impact prognosis and risk stratification. The aim was to investigate in‐hospital prognosis and mortality in CS patients according to aetiology. We also assessed the prognostic accuracy of CardShock and IABP‐SHOCK II scores.

Therapeutic‐dose verapamil‐induced cardiogenic shock in an older patient: a case report
Abstract Background Calcium channel blocker (CCB) toxicity most commonly follows deliberate overdose. However, severe toxicity at therapeutic doses may occur in susceptible individuals. Severe CCB toxicity often presents with clinical features of bradycardia, hypotension, hyperglycaemia, and lactic acidosis.

Sustained Improvement of Left Ventricular Strain following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement
PURPOSE: Left ventricular (LV) mechanics are impaired in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS). Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has become a widespread technique for patients with severe AS considered inoperable or high risk for open ...

Transapical transcatheter aortic valve implantation using the second-generation self-expanding Symetis ACURATE TA valve [PDF]
Transapical transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TA-TAVI) is the recognized first choice surgical TAVI access. Expansion of this well-established treatment modality with subsequent broader patient inclusion has accelerated development of second ...

Sleep‐disordered breathing in valvular heart disease: A Modifiable comorbidity
Abstract Sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB) is highly prevalent among patients with valvular heart disease (VHD) and is independently associated with adverse clinical outcomes. The two major phenotypes—obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and central sleep apnea (CSA)—exhibit distinct distributions across VHD subtypes. CSA predominates in severe aortic stenosis,

The perioperative risk for redo surgical aortic valve replacement (S-AVR) in patients with severe aortic stenosis and prior coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is increased. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) represents an alternative.

Reoperative aortic valve replacement in the era of valve‐in‐valve procedures
Current evidence suggests that the choice between valve‐in‐valve transcatheter aortic valve implantation and reoperative aortic valve replacement should be based on multiple factors.

LVAD‐associated aortic regurgitation impairs circulatory support, with limited surgical and off‐label options. In a multicenter registry (n = 30), the AR‐dedicated JenaValve Trilogy TAVR eliminated AR, achieving 96.7% (29/30) technical success and 93.3% (28/30) device success (VARC‐3), with 3.3% (1/30) 30‐day mortality.
