A Soft Robotic Model for Simulating Heart Valve Disease and Cardiac Interventions
This paper introduces a fully synthetic fabrication methodology for a soft robotic, in‐vitro model of the left‐heart, complete with a functioning mitral valve apparatus. With a view towards patient‐specific modeling, we demonstrate physiological flow and pressure waveforms, tunable mitral valve function with clinical imaging compatibility, and its use ...

ABSTRACT Background The optimal choice between balloon‐expandable (BE) and self‐expanding (SE) transcatheter heart valves (THVs) in patients with low‐flow low‐gradient aortic stenosis (LFLG AS) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) remains unclear.

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has revolutionized the management of aortic valve disease. However, its success has brought attention to concurrent tricuspid valve disease and the inadequacy of treatments. This review explores the emerging field of transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions (TTVI) after TAVR.

Echocardiographic Imaging to Guide Tricuspid Interventions
Transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions may offer patients less invasive treatment alternatives to surgery. This review evaluates the use of echocardiography to determine anatomic suitability and guide the 2 most common classes of device currently ...

ABSTRACT Background Prosthesis‐patient mismatch (PPM) remains common following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and is associated with worse clinical outcomes. PPM is of particular concern in small aortic annuli (SAA). Aims To compare the incidence, predictors, and long‐term impact of PPM in SAA TAVR.

ABSTRACT Background Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the valent type of valvular heart disease, caused by primary leaflet lesions or annular dilatation secondary to left ventricular dysfunction. It can lead to a series of complications such as volume overload, exacerbated pulmonary congestion, and heart failure, significantly impacting patient prognosis ...

ABSTRACT Background Advanced heart failure (HF) remains a clinical challenge, and mitral transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) has emerged as a potential bridging strategy. Aims To describe the clinical outcomes of M‐TEER in a single‐center cohort of patients with advanced HF and to identify anatomical and clinical features potentially associated ...

The valve-in-valve (ViV) technique is an emerging alternative for the treatment of bioprosthetic structural valve deterioration (SVD) in the tricuspid position. We report on the outcomes of patients treated by a transcatheter tricuspid valve-in-valve (TT-

Expanding Indications of Transcatheter Heart Valve Interventions.
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has been established as a less invasive alternative to open-heart surgery in inoperable or high-risk patients presenting with symptomatic severe aortic valve stenosis. The feasibility and efficacy of valve-in-
