1- Consensus on How to Conduct Follow-Up in Peripheral Vascular Disease Peripheral vascular disease involves multiple areas and, therefore, can have very different presentations (from complete lack of symptoms to disabling symptoms). Depending on clinical presentation, general condition, anatomical localization, and lesion extension, revascularization can be indicated alongside optimal medical treatment.

Unilateral Vascular Access in TAVR: Our Main Procedure, Increasingly Minimalist

There has been a significant decline in vascular complications in the last few years due to improvements in device profiles and operator experience on transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Unilateral vascular access for transfemoral TAVR is as safe as bilateral access and it could be more comfortable for patients according to this study recently published<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2019/12/08/unilateral-vascular-access-in-tavr-our-main-procedure-increasingly-minimalist/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Pre-TAVR Revascularization: Angiographic or Physiological?

In patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), fractional flow reserve (FFR) guided revascularization is associated with favorable results compared against the traditional angiography guided revascularization.&nbsp; Given the complete lack of randomized studies, this observational study is the best we have to decide how to guide revascularization in patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis undergoing<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2019/11/28/pre-tavr-revascularization-angiographic-or-physiological/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Temporal Trends and Outcomes of TAVR in Bicuspids: Are We Any Better?

This large registry has shown bicuspid aortic stenosis (AS) patients have similar mortality with transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) compared against surgical valve replacement (SAVR). TAVR outcomes in this population are not only similar to SAVR outcomes, but also to TAVR outcomes in patients with conventional aortic valve anatomy. Despite the good news, these outcomes<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2019/11/15/temporal-trends-and-outcomes-of-tavr-in-bicuspids-are-we-any-better/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Meta-Analysis of Large TAVR Studies on Low-Risk: Evidence is Consistent

This meta-analysis which included the 4 large randomized studies on transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) vs surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) in low-risk patients recently published in JACC, showed TAVR is associated with significant lower mortality compared against SAVR at one year follow up.  These results add to the mounting evidence showing that when it<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2019/10/28/meta-analysis-of-large-tavr-studies-on-low-risk-evidence-is-consistent/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Intentando reducir la insuficiencia renal post TAVI

Trying to Reduce Post TAVR Kidney Injury

Acute kidney injury is a common complication after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and is associated to increased mortality both short and long-term.  In patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) forcing diuresis with controlled hydration has shown to reduce the incidence of acute kidney injury in nearly 50%. However, this has not been tested in<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2019/10/22/trying-to-reduce-post-tavr-kidney-injury/" title="Read more" >...</a>

MIDAS Strategy: Minimizing Implantat Depth According to Membranous Septum

Permanent pacemaker implantation following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) continues to be one of the most frequent complications. Even though its real impact on prognosis continues to be controversial, its impact on healthcare cost is out of the question, in addition to being uncomfortable for patients.  This study, soon to be published in J Am<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2019/10/18/midas-strategy-minimizing-implantat-depth-according-to-membranous-septum/" title="Read more" >...</a>

TAVR Offers Better Quality of Life to Low Risk Patients

Courtesy of Dr. Carlos Fava. As we all know, TAVR is gaining ground fast in the lower risk patient population, but in addition to analyzing the most important events, researchers are increasingly looking at health status, not only at hospital level, but also after one year.   This study looked into PARTNER 3 patient health status<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2019/10/16/tavr-offers-better-quality-of-life-to-low-risk-patients/" title="Read more" >...</a>
