Outcomes of truncus arteriosus repair and predictors of mortality
Conclusion22q11.2 deletion syndrome was associated with an inverse risk of death despite having more noncardiac comorbidities; this patient subpopulation also had a higher length of stay and increased cost of hospitalization.

HVAD Cannula Position and Hemocompatibility-related Adverse Events
ConclusionsHVAD cannula coronal angle was associated with reduced right ventricular function and HRAE. Prospective studies evaluating surgical techniques to ensure optimal device positioning and its effects on HRAEs are warranted.

HVAD Cannula Position and Hemocompatibility-related Adverse Events.
CONCLUSIONS: HVAD cannula coronal angle was associated with reduced right ventricular function and HRAE. Prospective studies evaluating surgical techniques to ensure optimal device positioning and its effects on HRAEs are warranted. PMID: 32035046 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Effect of prior stroke on long ‐term outcomes of percutaneous coronary interventions in Chinese patients: A large single‐center study
ConclusionsPrior stroke history was the only predictor of risk of post ‐PCI stroke. The noncerebrovascular adverse events were not increased after adjusted analyses of baseline characteristics and propensity analyses.

Complex coronary bifurcation treatment by a novel stenting technique: Bench test, fluid dynamic study and clinical outcomes
ConclusionsThe revascularization of complex large coronary bifurcation disease using the Nano‐crush technique appeared promising thanks to the favorable fluid dynamic profile, complete coverage of the SD ostium, and very small metal amount at the carina.

Thromboembolism after WATCHMANTM in a clopidogrel non ‐responder: A case for concern?
Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with an increased risk of stroke and thromboembolism (TE). The WATCHMANTM left atrial appendage (LAA) closure device is indicated to reduce the risk of TE from the LAA in patients with non‐valvular AF. Here, we present a case of a patient with device‐related thrombus who suffered a TE event two months after WATCHMANTM LAA closure and two weeks after switching from aspirin plus warfarin to aspirin plus clopidogrel therapy. Laboratory investigation identified the patient to be hypercoagulable and to be a non‐responder to clopidogrel therapy. We discuss the potential role ...

Interventional closure of patent foramen ovale with Nit ‐occlud® device in prevention of recurrent neurologic events—Long‐term results
ConclusionsThe Nit‐Occlud PFO device and its delivery system are safe and provides sufficient closure of PFO in patients who suffered from cryptogenic stroke, TIA or paradoxical peripheral embolism. It is associated with high procedural success and favorable rates of complete closure.

Single trans ‐septal access technique for left atrial intracardiac echocardiography to guide left atrial appendage closure
ConclusionsThis initial experience suggests that LAA occlusion with the Amplatzer Amulet device using ICE guidance from the left atrium via a single trans‐septal technique is feasible and safe.

Duration of dual antiplatelet therapy following drug ‐eluting stent implantation: A systemic review and meta‐analysis of randomized controlled trials with longer follow up
ConclusionsIn the present analysis of RCTs with longer follow up (2 years or longer), S‐DAPT compared with L‐DAPT, was associated with higher rate of MI and lower rate of major bleeding without any significant difference in the rates of all cause mortality, cardiac mortality, ST, TVR, and stroke.

Thrombotic valvular dysfunction with transcatheter mitral interventions for postsurgical failures
ConclusionThrombotic related dysfunction post‐TMVR occurred in 15% (2/13) of patients and one patient had abnormal leaflet thickening that may have been thrombus related. Dual‐antiplatelet therapy was used in all 3 cases suggesting the possible need for oral anticoagulation postmitral valve‐in‐valve therapy. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Clinical outcomes associated with per ‐operative discontinuation of aspirin in patients with coronary artery disease: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
Conclusion: Our analysis suggests that planned short‐term discontinuation in the appropriate clinical setting appears to be safe in the correct clinical setting with no increased risk of thrombotic events and with a decreased risk of bleeding. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion: Effect of device positioning on outcome
ConclusionsNo evidence for a difference in the occurrence of the safety and efficacy endpoint was found between patients with complete vs. incomplete ACP disc coverage of the LAA ostium. The risk of repositioning attempts in case of incomplete coverage does not seem to be warranted. Current findings need further confirmation in a larger scale clinical trial. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
