TAVI in patients older than 90: similar outcomes to those obtained in younger patients

Original title: Comparison of Outcomes of Transcathether Aortic Valve Implantation in Patients ≥90 Years Versus &lt;90 Years. Reference: Yigal Abramowitz, et al. Am J Cardiol 2015;116:1110-1115. More and more 90 year old patients require transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVI); however, its benefits have not been studied in this particular population. This study enrolled 734 patients<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2015/11/16/tavi-in-patients-older-than-90-similar-outcomes-to-those-obtained-in-younger-patients/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Bons resultados clínicos após implante transcateter da prótese valvar mitral Edwards Fortis®

Fundamentos: A regurgita&ccedil;&atilde;o mitral severa (MR) representa a segunda doen&ccedil;a card&iacute;aca valvar mais prevalente nos pa&iacute;ses ocidentais. De um ter&ccedil;o a metade dos pacientes que necessitam de reparo da valva mitral / substitui&ccedil;&atilde;o s&atilde;o considerados de muito alto risco para cirurgia. O procedimento percut&acirc;neo mitral de reparo de borda a borda surgiu como uma alternativa<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2015/06/24/bons-resultados-clinicos-apos-implante-transcateter-da-protese-valvar-mitral-edwards-fortis-2/" title="Read more" >...</a>

PARTNER II: Less oversizing to reduce paravalvular failure with the new generation of SAPIEN 3

The new generation SAPIEN 3 valve was designed to reduce paravalvular aortic regurgitation. The objective of this work was to evaluate the influence of &#8220;oversizing&#8221; for SAPIEN 3 valve both in relation to the area and the perimeter and determine if calcium ring influences the degree of failure. A lesser degree of oversizing need it<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2015/06/24/partner-ii-less-oversizing-to-reduce-paravalvular-failure-with-the-new-generation-of-sapien-3/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Bons resultados nos procedimentos de implante transcateter valva-em-valva mitral e valva-em-anel mitral

Fundamentos: V&aacute;lvulas bioprot&eacute;ticas s&atilde;o cada vez mais implantadas em cirurgias card&iacute;acas abertas. Estas v&aacute;lvulas geralmente falham, resultando na necessidade de uma nova cirurgia card&iacute;aca, com risco elevado de mortalidade. O implante transcateter valva-em-valva mitral (VIVM) pode eliminar a necessidade de reopera&ccedil;&atilde;o. A implanta&ccedil;&atilde;o transcateter valva-em-valva e valva-em-anel mitral (VIAM) &eacute; uma abordagem menos invasiva e,<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2015/06/24/bons-resultados-nos-procedimentos-de-implante-transcateter-valva-em-valva-mitral-e-valva-em-anel-mitral-2/" title="Read more" >...</a>

SAPIENS 3: Favorable outcomes with TAVI in intermediate risk patients

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement is a safe and effective alternative to surgery in patients with severe aortic stenosis and high surgical risk as the 5-year results of PARTNER 1 Alternate showed. The aim of this study was to evaluate the result of the Edwards Sapien 3 valve in patients with severe aortic stenosis and intermediate<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2015/06/24/sapiens-3-favorable-outcomes-with-tavi-in-intermediate-risk-patients/" title="Read more" >...</a>

TAVR é um procedimento tão seguro e eficaz quanto a substituição cirúrgica num seguimento de dois anos em pacientes de menor risco.

Fundamentos e &nbsp;Objetivos: A substitui&ccedil;&atilde;o da v&aacute;lvula a&oacute;rtica via transcateter (TAVR) &eacute; uma op&ccedil;&atilde;o em determinados pacientes cir&uacute;rgicos de alto risco com estenose da v&aacute;lvula a&oacute;rtica grave. Desconhecemos se a TAVR pode ser introduzida com seguran&ccedil;a para os pacientes de baixo risco.

NOTION: TAVR in low-risk patients

The aim of this study was to compare the results of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) versus surgery in unselected patients with severe degenerative aortic stenosis. Patients were randomized 1:1 to TAVR (n = 145) or surgical replacement (n = 135). Those of TAVR group received Medtronic CoreValve self-expanding valve. The femoral access was used<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2015/06/24/notion-tavr-in-low-risk-patients/" title="Read more" >...</a>
