Valve in valve and valve in ring transcatheter aortic valveimplantation
In recent years the trend towards surgical bioprosthetic valve implantation, especially among young patients, has increased in order to avoid anticoagulant therapy. The patient’s age remains one of the leading risk factors for valve dysfunction.

The first mechanical heart valve prosthesis, designed by Dr Charles Hufnagel, was implanted to the descending aorta of a 30-year-old woman with severe aortic regurgitation in 1952.1 Eight years after the initial successful prosthetic valve implantation, Dr Harken sutured a prosthetic valve (Starr Edwards Valve) to the aortic annulus after removing the ...

Outcomes in Valve-in-Valve Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation
The use of valve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve implantation (ViV-TAVI) is increasing, but studies evaluating clinical outcomes in these patients are scarce. Also, there are limited data to guide the choice of valve type in ViV-TAVI. Therefore, this CENTER-study evaluated clinical outcomes in patients with ViV-TAVI compared to patients with native

A calcified polymeric valve for valve-in-valve applications [PDF]
The prevalence of aortic valve stenosis (AS) is increasing in the aging society. More recently, novel treatments and devices for AS, especially transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) have significantly changed the therapeutic approach to this disease.

A female patient presented with severe, symptomatic aortic stenosis after distant surgical aortic valve replacement and subsequent transcatheter aortic valve implantation 6 years prior. A 23-mm CoreValve Evolut (Medtronic, Dublin, Ireland) was implanted with excellent symptomatic and hemodynamic results. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).

Valve-in-valve implantation for dysfunctional bioprosthetic valves has been shown to be a safe and feasible option for selected patients (Dvir et al., 2014, Bapat et al., 2012, Piazza et al., 2011).

Analysis of proportional valve flow field in common rail system
A certain type of proportional valve has been optimised in design by adding a damping hole in its structure, which solves the problem of pressure rise in the fuel chamber due to gap leakage when closing.

Scaling properties of a low-actuation pressure microfluidic valve [PDF]
Using basic physical arguments, we present a design and method for the fabrication of microfluidic valves using multilayer soft lithography. These on-off valves have extremely low actuation pressures and can be used to fabricate active functions, such as
