Prosthesis-patient mismatch (PPM) after surgical aortic valve replacement has become less common over time, but it remains associated with worsened clinical outcomes, a new study shows. Also, a second ...
CHICAGO, IL—Patients undergoing TAVR with a self-expanding supra-annular bioprothesis (CoreValve, Evolut R, or Evolut PRO; Medtronic) have lower aortic valve mean pressure gradients, larger effective ...
Choosing the optimal aortic valve prosthesis for middle-aged patients (late 40s to early 60s) with aortic stenosis presents a challenge. The available options all have substantial drawbacks that must ...
Prosthesis–patient mismatch (PPM) occurs when a prosthetic aortic valve with a smaller effective orifice area (EOA) than that of the patient's native valve is implanted. PPM results in abnormally high ...
Valve-in-valve (ViV) transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for failed surgical valves was associated with similar or better procedural, 30-day, and 1-year outcomes compared with the "benchmark ...
WASHINGTON (May 16, 2016) --Patients with a combination of left ventricular dysfunction and low aortic valve gradient, or reduced force of blood flow through the aortic valve, have higher mortality ...
AUSTRALIA: Perceval S prosthesis is indicated for the replacement of a diseased native or a malfunctioning prosthetic aortic valve via open heart surgery. The prosthesis is indicated in patients who ...
