Minimally Invasive versus Full Sternotomy for Isolated Aortic Valve Replacement in Low-risk Patients
CONCLUSIONS: For patients at low risk for isolated surgery, MI and FS approaches were associated with similar in-hospital and 1-year outcomes.PMID:34958771 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2021.11.048

Early surgical intervention versus conservative management of asymptomatic severe aortic stenosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Conclusions This study suggests that for patients with asymptomatic severe AS an early surgical intervention compared with a conservative WW strategy was associated with a lower heart failure hospitalisation and a similar rate of stroke or myocardial infarction, although with significant risk of bias. PROSPERO registration number CRD42021291144.

Comparison of Characteristics and Short-Term Outcome From Fungal Infective Endocarditis in Prosthetic Valve Endocarditis Versus Native Valve Endocarditis
In conclusion, fungal IE is associated with high mortality and recurrence rates. Surgery performed in selected cases may improve the outcomes, but the recurrence rate remains high.

Outcomes Following Surgical Correction of Pure Aortic Regurgitation in Presence or Absence of Significant Functional Mitral Regurgitation
ConclusionDespite being a higher risk population, patients with moderate‐to‐severe functional MR secondary to severe AR experience similar postoperative mortality at the expense of a moderately higher 5‐year overall mortality, rate of hospitalization for congestive heart failure, and medication use. Preoperative indexed SV < 50 mL/m2 may be helpful in predicting long‐term outcomes.

Predictors of Long-Term Outcomes in Patients with Significant Myxomatous Mitral Regurgitation Undergoing Exercise Echocardiography.
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with ≥III+ myxomatous MR undergoing ExEc, lower %age-gender predicted METS, lower HRR, atrial fibrillation, lower LV ejection fraction and high resting RVSP predicted worse outcomes. PMID: 24396041 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Efficacy of Prophylactic Intra‐Aortic Balloon Pump Therapy in Chronic Heart Failure Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery
This study investigated the efficacy of prophylactic intraoperative intra‐aortic balloon pump (IABP) usage in chronic heart failure patients with severely reduced left ventricular function undergoing elective cardiac surgery. Between January 2008 and December 2012, 107 patients with severely reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF <35%) received prophylactic intraoperative IABP implantation during open‐heart surgery. Surgical procedures performed were isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in 35 patients (32.7%), aortic valve replacement in 12 (11.2%), mitral valve repair or replacement in 15 (14.0...

Can the temporary use of right ventricular assist devices bridge patients with acute right ventricular failure after cardiac surgery to recovery?
A best evidence topic in cardiac surgery was written according to a structured protocol. The question addressed was: Can the temporary use of right ventricular assist devices (RVADs) bridge patients to recovery who suffer acute right ventricular failure after cardiac surgery? More than 183 papers were found using the reported search, of which 13 represented the best evidence to answer the clinical question. The authors, journal, date and country of publication, patient group studied, study type, relevant outcomes and results of these papers are tabulated. Indications for surgical intervention included coronary artery bypas...
