Jul 30th, 2022 - Background Rheumatic mitral stenosis is a significant cause of valvular heart disease. Pulmonary arterial systolic pressure (PASP) reflects the hemodynamic consequences of mitral stenosis and is used to determine treatment strategies. However, PAS...

Jul 26th, 2022 - A cardiogenic shock patient with a history of a surgical mitral valve replacement presented to the hospital with critical mitral stenosis with thickening of prosthetic valve leaflets and thrombus in left atrial appendage. We considered TMVR inside...

Jul 19th, 2022 - Re-operative mitral valve (MV) replacement is a high-risk procedure, therefore, transcatheter MV replacement (TMVR) is a promising therapeutic option. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of TMVR in patients with high sur...

Jul 19th, 2022 - Chordal apparatus preservation is important for preserving left ventricular (LV) function in the long-term perspective. We present results of originally modified chordal-sparing mitral valve replacement (MVR) successfully used in patients with mit...

Jul 19th, 2022 - Non-Inferiority Trial of rivaroxaban versus VKAs: 4,500 patients Inclusion Criteria: RVHD diagnosed by echocardiography at any time prior to enrollment Age ≥18 Increased risk of stroke by any of the following CHA2DS2-VASc score ≥ 2 OR Moderate/Sev...

Jul 5th, 2022 - This is a single-centre, prospective study to determine the correlation and comparative thresholds between NT ProBNP (Roche) and BNP (Abbott) tests. This will involve simultaneous serum sampling for both BNP and NT ProBNP at pre-surgical screening...

May 13th, 2022 - Functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR) was defined as TR occurring secondary to left heart, especially mitral valve stenosis or pulmonary disease. Previous study reported that about 30% - 50% of patients with significant mitral stenosis developed...

Jan 11th, 2022 - Consecutive patients with severe mitral stenosis and clot in left atrial appendage (LAA) on transesophageal echocardiography fulfilling the inclusion criteria will be recruited for this study. An ACUSON 128-XP echocardiographic system equipped wit...

Dec 14th, 2021 - The MAIN GOAL of this project is to clinically validate the technology for the noninvasive identification of the mechanisms responsible for maintenance of AF by body surface electrical mapping. To achieve this goal, noninvasive mapping of the atri...

Jan 21st, 2022 - Depression is associated with a significantly increased cumulative incidence of, and risk for, atrial fibrillation (AF), new research suggests. In a cohort study of more than five million adults, the cumulative incidence of new-onset AF was double...

Apr 19th, 2021 - Patients with secondary mitral regurgitation (MR) who were left with high gradients after a MitraClip procedure were not inherently at a disadvantage in their subsequent clinical outcomes, according to a COAPT analysis. MitraClip-treated trial par...

Mar 19th, 2021 - The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) has published a draft guideline on the management of heart valve disease in adults. Here is a summary of the key recommendations: Referral Consider echocardiogram for adults with murmur ...

Sep 29th, 2020 - Atrial fibrillation has been known to confer an increased risk for poor outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve replacement, but there's been no evidence of how the etiology of AFib can influence post-TAVR outcomes. Now, a group of researchers f...
