Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) [PDF]
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is becoming the gold standard when repairing aortic stenosis compared to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR). Transcatheter aortic valve replacement is minimally invasive.

Subtype of atrial fibrillation and the outcome of transcatheter aortic valve replacement: The FinnValve Study [PDF]
Whether the subtype of atrial fibrillation affects outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve replacement for aortic stenosis is unclear. The nationwide FinnValve registry included 2130 patients who underwent primary after transcatheter aortic valve ...

Echocardiography in Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement [PDF]
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a safe and efficient alternative for surgical valve aortic replacement in patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis who are inoperable or have a high risk for surgery. Randomised clinical trials have shown that TAVR is not inferior to surgical aortic valve replacement in intermediate-risk patients

Intermediate-Term Risk of Stroke Following Cardiac Procedures in a Nationally Representative Data Set. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Studies on stroke risk following cardiac procedures addressed only perioperative and long-term risk following limited higher-risk procedures, were poorly generalizable, and often failed to stratify by stroke type. We calculated stroke risk in

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Aortic Stenosis: a Clinical Case [PDF]
Background. Aortic valve stenosis is common with prevalence of about 0.5 %, peaking in people aged over 70 years mostly due to age-related valve calcification. The year 2002 was marked by the invention and use of the endovascular aortic replacement valve

Sex discrepancies in pathophysiology, presentation, treatment, and outcomes of severe aortic stenosis [PDF]
This review gives an overview of sex-based differences in aortic valve stenosis, spanning from pathophysiological mechanisms and disease progression, clinical presentation, presence of comorbidities, and diagnostic assessment, to treatment and outcomes ...

The management of postprocedure severe aortic periprosthetic regurgitation after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is unknown. While valve-in-valve TAVR has been associated with favorable outcomes for degenerative surgically implanted bioprosthetic valves, there are no evidence-based guidelines for immediate TAVR valve in TAVR valve for ...

Evolution of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement [PDF]
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement emerged ≈20 years ago and changed the landscape of structural interventional cardiology. The first experiments in animal models provided proofs of the concept and the substrate for the first percutaneous valve implantation in patients.

A Model of Fluid-Structure and Biochemical Interactions for Applications to Subclinical Leaflet Thrombosis [PDF]
Subclinical leaflet thrombosis (SLT) is a potentially serious complication of aortic valve replacement with a bioprosthetic valve in which blood clots form on the replacement valve. SLT is associated with increased risk of transient ischemic attacks and strokes and can progress to clinical leaflet thrombosis. SLT following aortic valve replacement also
