SAPIEN 3: Good Outcomes in Bicuspids

Courtesy of Dr. Carlos Fava. Bicuspid aortic valves are found in approximately 2% of patients and represent the most frequent cause of aortic stenosis in young adults requiring valve replacement. Though TAVR has advanced significantly, this entity has not yet been included in the different randomized studies. At present, we have data from different reports,<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2020/08/21/sapien-3-good-outcomes-in-bicuspids/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Incidencia, características y tratamiento de la trombosis valvular post TAVI

Arrhythmias Wrongfully Linked to TAVR?

Continuous electrocardiographic monitoring pre-transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) detected arrhythmic events in almost half the patients analyzed in this study (which will be published soon in JACC Interventions). A fourth of these patients needed urgent therapeutic actions before the procedure. Previous conduction disorders—particularly, right bundle branch block and chronic renal insufficiency—were linked to a higher<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2020/08/18/arrhythmias-wrongfully-linked-to-tavr/" title="Read more" >...</a>

SOLACI Research Survey | Reasons NOT to Conduct TAVR in Latin America

The Latin American Society of Interventional Cardiology, through the SOLACI Research Department, is conducting a survey to determine the reasons why transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) was NOT conducted in patients with severe aortic stenosis in Latin America (from January to December 2019). Dr. Ricardo Allende, from San Luis Potosí (Mexico), and Dr. Pablo Lamelas,<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2020/08/07/solaci-research-survey-reasons-not-to-conduct-tavr-in-latin-america/" title="Read more" >...</a>

High Mortality Rates for Redo Surgery After TAVR

Courtesy of Dr. Carlos&nbsp;Fava. Since the beginnings of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) back in 2002, this strategy has gained considerable ground, encompassing not only inoperable or high-risk patients but also those at medium and low risk. Additionally, it came to include patients with failed bioprostheses. The most common reason for surgery was paravalvular leak,<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2020/08/03/high-mortality-rates-for-redo-surgery-after-tavr/" title="Read more" >...</a>

La revascularización incompleta se asocia a mortalidad en el TAVI

Post TAVR Regression of Ventricular Mass

This study looked at patients with moderate to severe left ventricular hypertrophy and aortic stenosis treated with transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Patients with reduced hypertrophy had lower mortality and fewer hospitalizations at 5 years.&nbsp; It included all moderate to severe risk patients with ventricular hypertrophy undergoing TAVR in the studies and registries PARTNER (I,<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2020/07/16/post-tavr-regression-of-ventricular-mass/" title="Read more" >...</a>

TAVR via trans-carotidea anestesia local o general

Anesthetic Modes and Their Impact on Elective Endoprostheses

This work supports previous observations on the mortality benefit of regional (and even local) anesthesia in patients who undergo elective endovascular aneurysm repair for the treatment of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms. These benefits also translated into a shorter hospital stay, but not into less pulmonary complications, which is what previous studies had suggested.

Engrosamiento e inmovilidad de las valvas en el Evolut Low Risk

Leaflet Thickening and Immobility in Evolut Low Risk

Leaflet thickening and immobility caused by thrombosis have been reported for both surgical and transcatheter bioprostheses. This phenomenon is diagnosed through hypoattenuation, thickening, and lack of motion, as observed through computed tomography (CT) imaging. The incidence and, especially, the clinical implications of this phenomenon remain unclear, but they are of great interest, particularly in a<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2020/06/09/leaflet-thickening-and-immobility-in-evolut-low-risk/" title="Read more" >...</a>
