Bicuspid Aortic Valve Disease: Classifications, Treatments, and Emerging Transcatheter Paradigms [PDF]
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a common congenital valvular malformation, which may lead to early aortic valve disease and bicuspid-associated aortopathy. A novel BAV classification system was recently proposed to coincide with transcatheter aortic valve

Prevalence, predictors, and outcomes of patient prosthesis mismatch in women undergoing TAVI for severe aortic stenosis: Insights from the WIN-TAVI registry [PDF]
Objective: To evaluate the incidence, predictors and outcomes of female patients with patient-prosthesis mismatch (PPM) following transcatheter aortic valve intervention (TAVI) for severe aortic stenosis (AS). Background: Female AS TAVI recipients have a

Simplification of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has led to a paradigm shift in the treatment of patients with symptomatic, severe aortic stenosis. Thus, several randomized clinical trials have demonstrated that TAVR is at least noninferior to surgical aortic valve replacement with regard to ...

Advances in Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement [PDF]
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is becoming widely used for the treatment of symptomatic severe aortic stenosis in patients with high surgical risk. Data from The PARTNER Trial (Placement of AoRtic TraNscathetER Valves) and the Medtronic CoreValve® U.S. Pivotal Investigational Device Exemption trial indicate that survival for extreme-risk

A deep learning approach to using wearable seismocardiography (SCG) for diagnosing aortic valve stenosis and predicting aortic hemodynamics obtained by 4D flow MRI [PDF]
In this paper, we explored the use of deep learning for the prediction of aortic flow metrics obtained using 4D flow MRI using wearable seismocardiography (SCG) devices. 4D flow MRI provides a comprehensive assessment of cardiovascular hemodynamics, but it is costly and time-consuming.

Transcarotid Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement
The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility and safety of transcarotid transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).Many candidates for TAVR have challenging vascular anatomy that precludes transfemoral access. Transcarotid arterial access may be an option for such patients.The French Transcarotid TAVR Registry is a voluntary database that

Effects of stenotic aortic valve on the left heart hemodynamics: a fluid-structure-electrophysiology approach [PDF]
The aortic valve is a three-leaflet passive structure that, driven by pressure differences between the left ventricle and the aorta, opens and closes during the heartbeat to ensure the correct stream direction and flow rate. In elderly individuals or because of particular pathologies, the valve leaflets can stiffen thus impairing the valve functioning ...

Material transport in the left ventricle with aortic valve regurgitation [PDF]
This experimental in vitro work investigates material transport properties in a model left ventricle in the case of aortic regurgitation, a valvular disease characterized by a leaking aortic valve and consequently double-jet filling within the elastic left ventricular geometry.

Packed Red Blood Cell Transfusion Associates with Acute Kidney Injury After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement [PDF]
Background: Acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery significantly associates with morbidity and mortality. Despite not requiring cardiopulmonary bypass, transcatheter aortic valve replacement patients have an incidence of post-procedural acute kidney ...
