Trans‐subclavian versus transapical access for transcatheter aortic valve implantation: A multicenter study
ConclusionTransapical compared with trans‐subclavian access for TAVI was associated with a nonsignificant trend to increased periprocedural events. However, 1‐ and 2‐year survival appears similar. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Multiplug paravalvular leak closure using Amplatzer Vascular Plugs III: A prospective registry
ConclusionTPVLC with simultaneous deployment of multiple AVP III occluders is feasible with high device success rate and no significant periprocedural complications. The clinical benefits of reduction of HF symptoms and hemolysis are evident after 30 days and persist up to 1 year without recurrence of PVL. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Use of intracardiac echocardiography to guide percutaneous transluminal mitral commissurotomy: A 20‐patient case series
ConclusionsICE‐guided PTMC offers excellent visualization of the LA and the LAA with satisfactory clinical outcomes and low risk. As a part of the PTMC procedure, ICE safely provides a valid alternative to a separate TEE procedure. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Association of embolism and stroke in the catheterization laboratory
Key Points Strokes continue to be a rare but potentially devastating event during cardiac catheterization Most strokes are associated with brain imaging patterns consistent with embolic etiologies Common embolic etiology supports not only the critical importance of catheterization laboratory techniques to minimize activation of thrombosis or embolism, but also point to potential treatment with rapid application of neurovascular brain salvage techniques.

Optimizing endovascular stroke therapy: A primary PCI deja‐vu?
Key Points The optimal revascularization modality (thromboembolectomy, suction thrombectomy, angioplasty with stenting, and stent retriever thrombectomy) for the cerebral circulation remains to be defined Catheter‐based therapy of the acute stroke yields better clinical outcomes in patients <65‐year‐old, with a door‐to‐balloon time <4 hr and successful reperfusion TICI ≥ 2. Considering the significant incidence of acute strokes which are either ineligible for intravenous thrombolytic therapy or present too late, catheter‐based therapies may offer an alternative treatment option. Interventional card...

Initial experience with the novel patent foramen ovale occlusion device Nit‐Occlud® in patients with stroke or transient ischemic attack
ConclusionIn patients with cryptogenic stroke or TIA and a PFO, the Nit‐Occlud® PFO Occlusion Device appears to be both a safe and effective means to occlude the PFO. It is associated with high procedural success and favorable rates of complete closure. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Should MitraClip be preferred over surgery in high‐risk patients with severe MR and CKD?
Key Points Severe mitral regurgitation (MR) may lead to worsening renal function due to a decrease in stroke volume, increase in systemic vascular resistance, and venous pooling. Percutaneous treatment with MitraClip seems to improve renal function in certain patient groups. Larger studies are needed to prove that MitraClip is the preferred strategy in patients with severe MR and chronic kidney disease

PFO closure with only fluoroscopic guidance: 7 years real‐world single centre experience
ConclusionsIn our experience Fluoro‐G PFO closure was performed mainly in cases of simple anatomy, with similar results in terms of safety and efficacy compared to Echo‐G cases. Both fluoroscopy and total procedural times were lower in the Fluo‐G cases. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Incidence, prognostic impact, and optimal definition of contrast‐induced acute kidney injury in consecutive patients with stable or unstable coronary artery disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. insights from the all‐comer PRODIGY trial
ConclusionsIn a large, contemporary, all‐comers percutaneous coronary intervention population, CI‐AKI was associated with an increased risk of all‐cause death and the composite of death, stroke, or MI. While CI‐AKI is more common in ACS than in stable CAD patients, its adjusted prognostic impact on the composite endpoint appears to be more pronounced in patients with stable CAD. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Impact of postoperative acute kidney injury on clinical outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve implantation: A meta‐analysis of 5,971 patients
ConclusionsPostoperative AKI seems to significantly worsen TAVI prognosis. The results of the present meta‐analysis should be considered hypothesis‐generating and future studies on risk stratification, prevention, and postoperative management are needed. © 2015 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.

Risk and Outcomes of Complications during and after MitraClip Implantation: Experience in 828 patients from the German TRAnscatheter Mitral valve Interventions (TRAMI) Registry
Conclusions: MitraClip implantation appears to be a safe treatment option with low rates of MACCE and clip‐specific complications. Nevertheless, MitraClip therapy is not without complications. Careful patient selection and improvements in preventing peri‐procedural bleeding have the potential of reducing post‐procedural complications and improving outcomes.
