Patients with CABG History and new N-ST ACS: Routine Invasive Strategy?

Multiple studies support the use of an early invasive approach in high risk patients with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome (NST ACS). This benefit of an invasive strategy over the expected management has been shown in randomized studies and meta-analysis. Patients with a history of cardiac artery bypass graft (CABG) represent approximately 10% of ACS<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2024/06/10/patients-with-cabg-history-and-new-n-st-acs-routine-invasive-strategy/" title="Read more" >...</a>

ACC 2024 | IVUS-DCB

Drug-coated balloons (DCB) have proven to be effective in the treatment of femoropopliteal pathology, although they entail complications such as recoil, residual stenosis, and dissection. Their outcomes could be improved through proper and enhanced vessel preparation, both before and after the procedure. Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) offers the advantage of characterizing plaque and assessing vessel diameter.<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2024/04/17/acc-2024-ivus-dcb-3/" title="Read more" >...</a>

ACC 2024 | RELIEVE-HF

Heart failure is characterized by increased left atrial filling pressure and venous congestion which intensify with exercise and volume burden, and makes conventional medical management hard. In this context, interatrial shunting might offer a self-regulating mechanism, as shown by the Ventura IAS study. The aim of this study was to assess the safety and efficacy<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2024/04/10/acc-2024-relieve-hf/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Lithotripsy in the “Real World”: REPLICA EPIC-18 Study

Severe persistent calcification of the coronary arteries has been associated with different factors, such as advanced age, hypertension, dyslipidemia, smoking, and kidney failure, among others, and continues to be one of the challenges to stent implantation because of it impact on device advancing, drug release and adequate positioning.&nbsp; Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) is a technique that<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2024/04/05/lithotripsy-in-the-real-world-replica-epic-18-study/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Transcatheter Myotomy for the Treatment of the Dynamic Obstruction of the Left Ventricular Outflow Tract

Septal reduction therapies are used to mitigate the symptoms caused by dynamic left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction and the associated mitral regurgitation (MR) that can surge in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).&nbsp; Alternative therapies to treat LVOT obstruction include surgical procedures, i.e. surgical myotomy or myomectomy, or alcohol and radiofrequency septal ablation (intracardiac, transthoracic and endocardial,<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2024/03/24/transcatheter-myotomy-for-the-treatment-of-the-dynamic-obstruction-of-the-left-ventricular-outflow-tract/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Post TAVR Long Term Outcomes in Patients with Chronic Inflammatory Disease

Patients suffering from immune-mediated chronic inflammatory disease (CID) face a high risk of developing heart disease, including aortic valve disease. Inflammatory vascular disease when triggered by an autoimmune condition, can prompt a harmful response leading to valve degeneration, with increased calcification and fibrosis, and the associated progression of stenosis, failure or both.&nbsp; Prior research has<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2024/03/04/post-tavr-long-term-outcomes-in-patients-with-chronic-inflammatory-disease/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Edge-to-Edge Repair in Cardiogenic Shock

The edge-to-edge approach with MitraClip has been established as a valid strategy for patients who experience severe symptomatic mitral regurgitation (MI) with high risk for surgery, currently with a IIa indication. MI complicated by cardiogenic shock, which results in a high risk for conventional valve surgery, is a particularly complex scenario.

Should We Treat Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease in TAVI?

Coronary artery disease, both obstructive and non-obstructive, often coexists with significant aortic stenosis. Therapeutic decision-making in this scenario remains controversial, not only regarding the need for treatment, but also about when it should be addressed, considering its pros and cons. Various analyses have yielded contradictory data, as most lesions are chronic and stable.

Use of Apixaban and Post TAVR Valve Thrombosis

TAVR can be associated to early valve thrombosis, characterized by thrombi formation near or attached to the prosthetic valve, with or without valve dysfunction. This dysfunction is associated with increased leaf thickening and reduced leaflet motion, as well as reduced orifice area or increased transvalvular gradient. Triggered multislice CT allows dynamic valve assessment and thrombosis<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2024/01/25/use-of-apixaban-and-post-tavr-valve-thrombosis/" title="Read more" >...</a>

ACURATE Neo2: One-Year Hemodynamic and Clinical Benefit Results

Both Acurate Neo2 and its predecessor, Acurate Neo, have proven their safety and efficacy in the percutaneous treatment of severe aortic stenosis. The Acurate platform offers a lower gradient and a larger effective orifice area, as well as a low risk of periprocedural complications, according to previous registries.&nbsp; However, the first-generation Acurate device had some<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2024/01/12/acurate-neo2-one-year-hemodynamic-and-clinical-benefit-results/" title="Read more" >...</a>
