Treatment of More Than Moderate Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation in Patients Undergoing Left Ventricular Reconstruction

Cardiology Discovery, 2023
Objective:. While evidence-based clinical guidelines recommend chordal-sparing mitral valve replacement, rather than mitral valve repair, in patients with severe ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting, there are no

Strategies for tricuspid valve repair [PDF]

Indian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2019
Tricuspid valve repair is in many ways more challenging than mitral valve repair, especially since tricuspid valve anatomy is more complex with three leaflets, a saddle-shaped dynamic annulus and a complex subvalvular apparatus. The late referral of patients for tricuspid valve surgery adds to this challenge and contributes to poor prognosis ...

Superlubricity and Corrosion Inhibition Properties of Solvate Ionic Liquids in Hybrid Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic–Steel Interfaces

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Solvate ionic liquids lubrication reduced the coefficient of friction by ∼60% compared to dry sliding, reaching steady‐state values as low as 0.04–0.05. Corrosion weight‐loss measurements in 1 M HCl further demonstrated significant inhibition behavior, with only 100 ppm of [Li(G3)][TFSI] (∼68.5 μL/L) reducing corrosion‐product weight loss by 63 ...

Rheumatic tricuspid valve disease: Repair versus Replacement

SVU - International Journal of Medical Sciences, 2022
Background: Tricuspid valve disease is most commonly functional, however, organic affection still accounts for one fourth of cases. Rheumatic fever which is endemic in Egypt is a main cause of organic affection.
