First Colombian tricuspid endovascular valve in valve using kissing balloon technique for failed bioprosthesis annular cracking

Revista Colombiana de Cardiología, 2022
We present the first case in Colombia of tricuspid endovascular valve in valve for failed bioprosthesis in a 40-year-old patient with very high operative risk with great results, proposing kissing balloon annulus cracking technique as a practical ...

Outcomes after bioprosthetic versus mechanical mitral valve replacement for infective endocarditis in the United StatesCentral MessagePerspective

JTCVS Open
Objective: In patients who underwent mitral valve replacement for infectious endocarditis, we evaluated the association of prosthesis choice with readmission rates and causes (the primary outcomes), as well as with in-hospital mortality, cost, and length

Quality of life after aortic valve repair is similar to Ross patients and superior to mechanical valve replacement: A cross-sectional study [PDF]

, 2016
Background: In patients after aortic valve surgery, the quality of life is hypothesized to be influenced by the type of the valve procedure. A cross-sectional study on the postoperative quality of life was carried out in patients after aortic valve ...

Transjugular Tricuspid Valve-in-Valve Replacement [PDF]

Circulation, 2011
The patient is a 38-year-old woman with rheumatic heart disease requiring surgery 21 years ago. She received a St. Jude mechanical prosthesis in the mitral position and a Carpentier-Edwards Perimount bioprosthesis (size 31) in the tricuspid position. Over the past 2 years, she has become progressively more short of breath with regular admissions for ...

Handbook of Establishing and Maintaining Oxygen‐Free Atmospheres

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a practical framework for creating oxygen‐free atmospheres at ambient pressure using silane‐doped inert gases. The results show that ultra‐low oxygen levels and strongly reduced water content can be achieved through controlled silane dosing, drying systems, and sensor monitoring.

Left ventricular diastolic function in valvular aortic stenosis after aortic valve replacement [PDF]

Srpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2002
In adults with significant sympthomatic aortic valve stenosis, aortic valve replacement is therapy of choice. Replacement of the diseased aortic valve with a prosthetic valve yields relief of left ventricular outflow obstruction.
