Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: All Transfemoral? Update on Peripheral Vascular Access and Closure

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Transfemoral access remains the most widely used peripheral vascular approach for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Despite technical improvement and reduction in delivery sheath diameters of all TAVI platforms, 10–20% of patients remain ...

Arterial Accesses in Coronary Angiography and Intervention—Review with a Focus on Prognostic Relevance

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Arterial access in coronary angiography has always been an important issue. Convincing prognostic data from large randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in the first place but also safe performance of same-day-discharge after diagnostic and interventional ...

Optimization of a Cost-Constrained, Hydraulic Knee Prosthesis Using a Kinematic Analysis Model

Biomechanics, 2023
Approximately 82% of amputees prefer microprocessor knees (MPKs) to the passive alternatives. However, the cost of these devices makes them inaccessible for many patients.

Transradial Versus Transfemoral Access for Mechanical Thrombectomy: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, 2023
Background In patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke, a few studies have compared transradial access (TRA) to transfemoral access (TFA) with inconsistent results.

Transcarotid Access Versus Transfemoral Access for Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Background: The transfemoral (TF) route is the gold-standard access for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). In 10–15% of patients, alternative accesses are needed, such as the transcarotid (TC) access.

A Sensor-Based Decision Support System for Transfemoral Socket Rectification

Sensors, 2021
A decision support system (DSS) was developed that outputs suggestions for socket-rectification actions to the prosthetist, aiming at improving the fitness of transfemoral prosthetic socket design and reducing the time needed for the final socket design.

Single femoral artery access is safe and feasible during transcatheter aortic valve replacement: a propensity score matched analysis

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
BackgroundTranscatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) potentially may be significantly simplified by using the single artery access (SA) technique, which does not require a secondary artery access.
