TAVR has been associated with early valve thrombosis, characterized by thrombus formation in the prosthetic valve with or without valve dysfunction. This dysfunction is related to leaflet thickening and reduced motion, reduced effective orifice area, or increased transvalvular gradient. A multidetector CT scan allows the dynamic assessment of valves and ruling out fibrosis vs. thrombosis. ...
The 44th SOLACI Regional Sessions – 15th South Cone Region took place in a hybrid setting (F2F and online) in Asuncion, Paraguay, between June 30 and July 1, 2022. It was a successful event that featured prestigious national and international guests and a world class scientific program. Next, we share some of the presentations held...
For over a decade, TAVR has been showing great benefits, but conduction abnormalities such as RBBB and prior A-V block, continue to be one of the biggest challenges, since in different series the need for definite pacemaker implantation (PPM) varies between 17 to 30% in the large, randomized studies of self-expanding valves. Even though we...
Coronary artery disease in women usually develops 10 years later than in men, and some evidence suggests women have higher mortality, especially when it comes to ST elevation MI (STEMI). Registries have shown higher mortality both in hospital and at one year follow up. In part, this difference is observed because of the gap in...
Non-adherence to medication in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains to be solved; the use of polypills and a closer follow up have been tried out (follow up calls and motivation groups). Antiaggregation guidelines recommend dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) for at least one year after ACS. Adherence to drug treatment is comprised of multiple...
The TIME study, presented by Dr. Thomas MacDonald, is a randomized study of over 21,000 patients with high blood pressure with a follow-up beyond 5 years. As is widely known, high blood pressure is the leading global cause of early death, accounting for nearly 10 million deaths in 2015, of which 4.9 million were caused by...
Bicuspid aortic valve stenosis (BAV) has not yet been analyzed in large, randomized studies, and TAVR in this scenario has been assessed only by small fairly studies. However, the information available is quite promising. TAVR in women generally presents more complications than in men, but severe bicuspid aortic valve stenosis receiving TAVR has not been...
Endovascular treatment of femoropopliteal lesions has become the first-line treatment due to the development of devices that decrease the restenosis rate. Recently, the IMPERIAL study showed greater patency at 1 year and greater freedom from clinically guided revascularization at 2 years in favor of the ELUVIA stent (paclitaxel-eluting fluoropolymer, FP-DES) compared with the ZILVER PTX...
XLV SOLACI Regional Sessions– 15° Andean Region.
