Clinical and neurocognitive outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) with cerebral protection: initial experience with a novel dual-filter device in Southeast Asia
CONCLUSION: In this early Asian experience of TAVI under cerebral protection, the filter device was successfully deployed in 95% of patients with 100% procedural success. There were no filter-related complications and no stroke or mortality at 30 days. Overall cognition was preserved, although increased age was associated with a decline in AMT score.PMID:35196849 | DOI:10.11622/smedj.2022030

Successful transfemoral-transcatheter aortic valve replacement in high-risk patients with a grade 4 atheroma in the ascending aorta: cerebral protection with a filter device
AbstractPerioperative stroke is one of the most serious complications after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), and it should be especially noted in patients with an atheroma in the ascending aorta. Here, we report the first experience of transfemoral (TF)-TAVR with the insertion of a filter device for two patients with severe aortic stenosis who were incidentally detected a grade 4 atheroma in the ascending aorta preoperatively. The patients had a favorable postoperative course without any cerebrovascular events or procedure-related complications.

Two wrongs sometimes do make a right: errors in aortic valve stenosis assessment by same-day Doppler echocardiography and 4D flow MRI
This study aims to systematically verify if the simplified geometry and flow profile of the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) assumed in 2D echocardiography is appropriate while examining the utility of 4D flow MRI to assess valvular disease. This prospective study obtained same-day Doppler echocardiography and 4D flow MRI in 37 healthy volunteers (age: 51.9 ± 18.2, 20 females) and 7 aortic stenosis (AS) patients (age: 64.2 ± 9.6, 1 female). Two critical assumptions made in echocardiography for aortic valve area assessment were examined, i.e. the assumption of (1) a circular LVOT shape and (2) a flat velocit...

Thoracic Aortic < sup > 18 < /sup > F-Sodium Fluoride Activity and Ischemic Stroke in Patients With Established Cardiovascular Disease
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with established cardiovascular disease, thoracic aortic 18F-sodium fluoride activity is associated with the progression of atherosclerosis and future ischemic stroke. Arterial 18F-sodium fluoride activity identifies localized areas of atherosclerotic disease activity that are directly linked to disease progression and downstream regional clinical atherothrombotic events.

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation in Low and Intermediate Surgical Risk Patients: a Critical Appraisal of Seminal Studies
AbstractPurposeTranscatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has grown in popularity as an alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for the management of aortic stenosis. In this review, we perform a critical appraisal of the key studies comparing TAVI and SAVR in aortic stenosis patients with intermediate and low risk of operative mortality.Recent findingsEarly data from TAVI vs. SAVR trials in low and intermediate surgical risk patients suggest equivalent outcomes at 2 years, with some hints of superiority for TAVI over SAVR in the low-risk group. Initial mid-term data are a bit less favorable for TAVI ...

Early-Term Results of Rapid-Deployment Aortic Valve Replacement versus Standard Bioprosthesis Implantation Combined with Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
CONCLUSION: RDAVR combined with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) can be performed extremely safely. Cross-clamp and cardiopulmonary bypass times can be significantly reduced with rapid deployment aortic valve system in the scenario of combined CABG. RDAVR resulted in lower gradients than CSAVR in patients implanted with prostheses of the same size.PMID:35151232 | DOI:10.1055/s-0042-1742686
