Control of ventricular unloading using an electrocardiogram-synchronized Thoratec paracorporeal ventricular assist device
Conclusions: The timing of pump ejection in synchronized mode yields control over left ventricular energetics and can be a method to achieve gradual reloading of a recoverable left ventricle. The traditionally suggested counterpulsation is not optimal in ventriculo-aortic cannulation when maximum unloading is desired.

064 * ten-year results of redo aortic valve surgery in current practice: results from the multicentre european redo cardiac operations research database (record) initiative
Conclusions: rAVR still achieve satisfactory results. Baseline risk-factors and perioperative complications affecting outcome can be targets for TAVR and for improvements in perioperative management respectively.

The impact of unilateral versus bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion on surgical outcomes after aortic arch replacement: A propensity-matched analysis
Conclusions: Using unilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion in a pressure-controlled manner during mild systemic hypothermia is a safe protection strategy in elective aortic arch surgery, associated with similar morbidity and mortality in comparison with bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion, even if total arch replacement is required. Bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion reveals a trend of higher incidence of stroke, probably due to manipulation on the arch vessels.

MitraClip for severe symptomatic mitral regurgitation in patients at high surgical risk
ConclusionBased on high risk MC studies and high risk MVS data predominantly from STS database, patients with severe MR who are at HSR can be effectively treated with MC or MVS. MC can be safely implanted in high risk patients with relatively low mortality and stroke risk. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

224 * what is the best surgical strategy for aortic disease in redo scenarios? a comparison between traditional aortic valve replacement and transapical transcatheter aortic valve implantation from two real-world multicentre surgical registries
Conclusion: Outcome differences between RAVR and TaTAVI in redo scenarios reflect methodological differences and different baseline risk-profiles. Propensity-matched patients show comparable outcome data, which slightly favour TaTAVI.

300 * influence of different pacemaker stimulation modes in patients with ventricular hypertrophy
Conclusion: An increase in the heart rate does not lead to a notable drop in stroke volume postoperatively in left-ventricular hypertrophy; hence a rise in cardiac output can be anticipated up to a rate of 100 bpm. A standardised response in terms of an ideal pacemaker stimulation mode could not be identified.

Clinical Outcomes at 1 Year Following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement
ImportanceIntroducing new medical devices into routine practice raises concerns because patients and outcomes may differ from those in randomized trials.ObjectiveTo update the previous report of 30-day outcomes and present 1-year outcomes following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in the United States.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsData from the Society of Thoracic Surgeons/American College of Cardiology (STS/ACC) Transcatheter Valve Therapies Registry were linked with patient-specific Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) administrative claims data.

Lambl's Excrescences: Association with Cerebrovascular Disease and Pathogenesis
Conclusions: In this study, LEx are similarly prevalent in healthy controls and SLE patients, are not associated with CVD, and are not associated with pathogenic risk factors. Therefore, the study findings suggest that LEx may not be cardioembolic substrates, may not represent pathologic valve structures, and may not require therapy.Cerebrovasc Dis 2015;40:18-27

2-Year Outcomes After Iliofemoral Self-Expanding Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Severe Aortic Stenosis Deemed Extreme Risk for Surgery
ConclusionsPatients with severe AS at extreme surgical risk treated with self-expanding TAVR continued to show good clinical outcomes and hemodynamic valve performance at 2 years. The presence of comorbid conditions rather than valve performance affected 2-year outcomes in these patients.

Radiographic and Symptomatic Brain Embolism in Cardiac Interventions: A Systematic Review and Pooled Analysis (P2.292)
Conclusions: Most radiographic infarcts during CABG, and cardiac catheterization remained silent. It appears that AVR might have both higher rate of radiographic infarct but also higher proportions being symptomatic.Disclosure: Dr. Cho has nothing to disclose.

Results of surgical aortic valve replacement and transapical transcatheter aortic valve replacement in patients with previous coronary artery bypass grafting
CONCLUSIONS Reported differences in mortality and morbidity after TaTAVR and RAVR reflect differences in baseline risk profiles. Given the lower trend for renal complications, patients at higher perioperative renal risk might be better served by TaTAVR.

5. Mitral valve replacement for mitral stenosis: 15 years single center experience
This study aimed to evaluate and compare the early and late outcome of mitral valve replacement (mechanical versus bioprosthetic) for severe mitral stenosis. A retrospective cohort study was performed on prospectively collected data involving mitral stenosis patients who have undergone MVR with either bioprosthetic (BMV) (n =50) or mechanical (MMV) (n =145) valves in our institute from 1999 to 2012. Data were analyzed for early and late mortality, NYHA functional classes, stroke, early and late valve-related complications, and survival. Chi Square test, logistic regression, Kaplan Meier curve, and dependent proportions tes...

Clinical Outcomes in 3343 Children and Adults with Rheumatic Heart Disease from 14 Low and Middle Income Countries: 2-Year Follow-up of the Global Rheumatic Heart Disease Registry (the REMEDY study).
CONCLUSIONS: -Patients with clinical RHD have high mortality and morbidity despite being young; those from low and lower-middle income countries had a poorer prognosis associated with advanced disease and low education. Programs focused on early detection and treatment of clinical RHD are required to improve outcomes. PMID: 27702773 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Aortic Valve Replacement in Redo-Scenarios: A Comparison Between Traditional Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) and Transapical-TAVR from Two Real-World Multicenter Registries.
CONCLUSIONS: Outcome differences between RAVR and TaTAVR in redo-scenarios reflect methodological differences and different baseline risk profiles. Propensity-matched patients showed a better renal outcome after TaTAVR. *Drs. Onorati and D'Onofrio contributed equally to this article and should both be considered as first authors.
