Preoperative higher right ventricular stroke work index increases the risk of de novo aortic insufficiency after continuous-flow left ventricular assist device implantation
This study investigated the influence of preoperative hemodynamic parameters on de novo AI in CF-LVAD recipients. We reviewed 125 patients who underwent CF-LVAD implantation without concomitant AV surgery between 2005 and 2018. De novo AI was defined as moderate or severe AI in those with none or trivial preoperative AI. During mean 30  ± 16 months of CF-LVAD support, de novo AI-free rate was 86% and 67% at 1 and 2 years, respectively. Multivariable analysis showed that higher right ventricular stroke work index (RVSWI) (hazard ratio, 1.12 /g/m2/beat; 95% confidence interval, 1.00 –1.20;p = 0.047) and trivial ...

The interval between carotid artery stenting and open heart surgery is related to perioperative complications
ConclusionsOur findings indicate that CAS followed by OHS is safe and feasible. More importantly, an interval between CAS and OHS of >5 days may decrease periprocedural complications, especially major stroke and neurological death. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Long‐term follow‐up after PFO device closure
ConclusionsDevice closure of PFO can be performed safely with very good long‐term resolution of atrial shunting. Recurrent neurologic events after PFO closure may reflect additional comorbid risk factors unrelated to the potential for paradoxical embolism. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Neurologic complications after transradial or transfemoral approach for diagnostic and interventional cardiac catheterization: A propensity score analysis of 16,710 cases from a prospective registry
Conclusion. Rates of documented stroke/TIA were low. Our observational study suggests that widening the use of the transradial approach is not associated with an increased risk of clinically relevant procedure‐related neurologic complications.

Influence of access site choice for cardiac catheterization on risk of adverse neurological events: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Conclusions Radial access site utilization for cardiac catheterization is not associated with an increased risk of stroke events. This data provides reassurance and should remove another potential barrier to conversion to a ‘default’ radial practice among those who are currently predominantly femoral operators.

Underfilling decreases left ventricular function in pulmonary arterial hypertension
AbstractTo evaluate the association between impaired left ventricular (LV) longitudinal function and LV underfilling in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Thirty-nine patients with PAH and 18 age and sex-matched healthy controls were included. LV volume and left atrial volume (LAV) were delineated in short-axis cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) cine images. LV longitudinal function was assessed from atrio-ventricular plane displacement (AVPD) and global longitudinal strain (GLS) was assessed using feature tracking in three long-axis views. LV filling was assessed by LAV and by pulmonary artery wedge pressu...

Inflammation May Be the Culprit Behind Our Deadliest Diseases
In the early days of my medical residency, I met a man whom we’ll call Jason. He arrived to our emergency room on a holiday, nonchalant yet amiable, and complained of mild chest pain. Jason was tall and trim, with a strong South Boston accent and fingertips still faintly stained from his last home-improvement project. He was only 45 years old, but he looked much younger. He didn’t smoke, barely drank alcohol, and his cholesterol levels had always been normal. No one in his family had a history of heart disease. He asked us if we could work quickly—he wanted to be home for dinner with his daughters. [time-...

Safety of percutaneous left atrial appendage closure with the amplatzer cardiac plug in patients with atrial fibrillation and contraindications to anticoagulation
Conclusion: Percutaneous LAA closure with the ACP in patients with contraindications to oral anticoagulation is safe. The stroke and bleeding risk after percutaneous LAA closure is lower than predicted by conventional risk scores. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

MitraClip for severe symptomatic mitral regurgitation in patients at high surgical risk
ConclusionBased on high risk MC studies and high risk MVS data predominantly from STS database, patients with severe MR who are at HSR can be effectively treated with MC or MVS. MC can be safely implanted in high risk patients with relatively low mortality and stroke risk. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Radiographic and Symptomatic Brain Embolism in Cardiac Interventions: A Systematic Review and Pooled Analysis (P2.292)
Conclusions: Most radiographic infarcts during CABG, and cardiac catheterization remained silent. It appears that AVR might have both higher rate of radiographic infarct but also higher proportions being symptomatic.Disclosure: Dr. Cho has nothing to disclose.

Selective Heart Rate Reduction With Ivabradine Increases Central Blood Pressure in Stable Coronary Artery Disease Clinical Trials
In conclusion, the decrease in HR with ivabradine was associated with an increase in central systolic pressure, which may have antagonized possible benefits of HR lowering in coronary artery disease patients. Clinical Trials—URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier NCT01039389.

An observational study of the macro ‐ and micro‐haemodynamic implications of epidural anaesthesia in children
We report macro‐ and micro‐haemodynamic data from an observational study of 25 children ranging from neonates to six‐years old, who underwent surgery conducted with a specific combination of monitoring systems. We analysed 90 min of study‐related monitoring after epidural catheterisation, with skin incision taking place after around 30 min. We recorded macrohaemodynamic parameters (monitored using LiDCOrapid) including heart rate, mean arterial pressure, cardiac output, stroke volume, systemic vascular resistance and stroke volume variation. Microhaemodynamic parameters (monitored using Invos™) included cerebral ...

Long ‐term results of carotid stenting and risk factors in patients with severe carotid artery stenosis undergoing subsequent cardiac surgery
ConclusionsIn this study with staged CAS followed by cardiac surgery, we confirm previously reported event ‐free survival rates and identify several risk factors for the composite outcome. Future studies are needed to confirm the importance of the identified risk factors and to assess their predictive ability.
