A Reassessment of Prophylactic Antibiotics in Low‐Infection‐Risk Electrophysiology Procedures
ABSTRACT Certain electrophysiology (EP) procedures are associated with minimal tissue disruption and do not involve permanent transvenous leads. As a result, these interventions carry a lower risk of device‐ or procedure‐related infection. These procedures include placement of implantable cardiac monitors, leadless pacemakers, and left atrial appendage

ABSTRACT A 72‐year‐old man developed a hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm (HAP) caused by a liver abscess due to acute cholangitis and choledocholithiasis. He was successfully treated by transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) with tornado microcoils. Two years later, he developed severe acute cholangitis caused by a biliary stone formed around a coil ...

Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Interventions to Manage Tricuspid Regurgitation: A Narrative Review
Medical devices for tricuspid regurgitation have emerged as viable treatment options for patients who do not respond to drug therapy or who are unsuitable for open-heart surgery due to high surgical risk.

Transcatheter cardiac interventions and the role of interventional echocardiography
This thesis concerns the application of three new procedures in the field of structural heart disease. Firstly, we investigate the mineral invasive transcatheter tgechnique to treat high-surgicval risk patients with severe symptomatic MR using edge-to-edge technique with the MitraClip system.

ABSTRACT Chronic liver disease (CLD)‐related thrombocytopenia can limit the feasibility of invasive procedures. Recombinant human thrombopoietin (rhTPO) has demonstrated a favorable safety profile without hepatotoxicity. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of rhTPO in patients with CLD‐related thrombocytopenia who were undergoing elective invasive ...

The anatomy of interatrial communications - what does the interventionist need to know? [PDF]
Increasingly, the interventional cardiologist is seeking to close interatrial communications by inserting devices by means of catheterisation. So as to optimise these procedures, it is adavantageous to have a firm grasp of the anatomy of the normal ...
