Stroke in Patients With Aortic Stenosis: The Simvastatin and Ezetimibe in Aortic Stenosis Study Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— In patients with aortic stenosis not prescribed oral anticoagulation, atrial fibrillation, AVR with concomitant coronary artery bypass grafting, and CHA2DS2-VASc score were the major predictors of stroke. Incident stroke was strongly associated with mortality. Clinical Trial Registration— URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT00092677.

Intermediate-term rates of stroke following cardiac procedures: the Nationwide Readmissions Database (P4.305)
Conclusions:Using a large, nationally representative database of inpatient admissions from 2013, we found that 90-day stroke rates are higher after cardiac procedures compared to non-cardiac procedures and non-surgical admissions. However, these rates are likely lower than previously reported.Disclosure: Dr. Stein has nothing to disclose. Dr. Thaler has nothing to disclose. Dr. Liang has nothing to disclose.

Factors associated with non –vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants for stroke prevention in patients with new-onset atrial fibrillation: Results from the Outcomes Registry for Better Informed Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation II (ORBIT-AF II)
Conclusions In contemporary clinical practice, up to three-fourths of patients with new-onset AF are now initially treated with a NOAC for stroke prevention. Those selected for NOAC treatment had lower stroke and bleeding risk profiles, were more likely treated by cardiologists, and had higher socioeconomic status.

A Meta-Analysis of Early Versus Delayed Surgery for Valvular Infective Endocarditis Complicated by Embolic Ischemic Stroke
Conclusions: In patients with valvular IE complicated by ischemic stroke, early surgery is associated with an increased risk of operative mortality, with no observed benefit in 1-year survival.

FDA warns of high stroke, mortality risk with SynCardia TAH-t C2 controller
The FDA on Friday released a letter warning of a higher mortality risk and stroke rate than expected for patients receiving treatment from SynCardia Systems’ Temporary Total Artificial Heart Companion 2 Driver System. Data indicating the higher mortality and stroke rate came from a post-approval study conducted by the company itself, the FDA said. The study indicated that patients treated with the previous generation driver of the device, the Circulatory Support System Console, experienced a lower rate of stroke and mortality compared with the C2. The TAH-t system is designed to function as a bridge to a heart transplant...

Slope in preload recruitable stroke work relationship predicts survival after left ventriculoplasty and mitral repair in patients with idiopathic cardiomyopathy.
CONCLUSIONS: Mw, the slope in the PRSW relationship, may predict survival after LVP and MVP in patients with idiopathic DCM. PMID: 24954287 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Perioperative changes of the slope in the preload recruitable stroke work relationship by a single-beat technique after mitral valve surgery in functional mitral regurgitation with non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy
ConclusionsThe change of slope was dependent on surgical procedures. In functional mitral regurgitation, the slope may be a more sensitive parameter in reflecting the left ventricular contractile function than the left ventricular ejection fraction.

Flow, Reflected by Stroke Volume Index, Is a Risk Marker in High-Gradient Aortic Stenosis Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement
ConclusionsSVi can further characterize patients with HG-AS and may help to identify those who are at increased risk after TAVR.RésuméContexteDes outils sont nécessaires pour dépister les patients exposés à un risque accru à la suite d’un remplacement valvulaire aortique par cathéter (RVAC). Le volume systolique indexé (VSI) est une mesure échocardiographique utilisée dans les cas de sténose aortique à faible gradient. Nous avons vérifié si un faible VSI était un marqueur de risque accru chez les patients présentant une sténose aortique à gradient élevé et avons évalué comment la relation entre le ...
