Infective Endocarditis After TAVI

Infective endocarditis after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is one of the most feared complications due to its morbidity and mortality. With the expansion of TAVI into all risk groups, endocarditis might be a long-term concern. However, its long-term risk seems similar to that of endocarditis with surgically-implanted biological valves; consequently, it should not affect<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2019/11/08/infective-endocarditis-after-tavi/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Mismatch protésico en válvulas supra anulares y en válvulas intra anulares

Prosthesis Mismatch in Supra and Intra Annular valves

The self-expandable valve was associated to lower prosthesis-patient mismatch (PPM) compared against the balloon expandable valve regardless annular area, according to this study soon to be published in J Am Coll Cardiol Intv. This difference was basically driven by patients with larger body surface area (>1.83m²).

Impacto del FFR post stent ¿dato útil o solo una curiosidad?

Discordance Between FFR and iFR. Which Measurement Is More Important?

In the next days, Dr. Seung Hun and colleagues will publish in J Am Coll Cardiol Intv 2019 a study that answers the title question and also brings peace of mind about the decisions we make based on one of these measurements or the other. This study assessed the physiologic characteristics of discordant lesions between<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2019/10/29/discordance-between-ffr-and-ifr-which-measurement-is-more-important/" title="Read more" >...</a>

1000 MitraClips: Results from the World’s Most Experienced Site

In September 2008, interventional physicians at the Heart and Vascular Centre Hamburg conducted the first MitraClip implantation after its Conformité Européenne (CE)-marking approval. In July 2019, the same site reached an amazing milestone, 1000 MitraClips implanted, and in doing so it became the most experienced site in the world. Those 1000 patients treated had an average logistic<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2019/10/28/1000-mitraclips-results-from-the-worlds-most-experienced-site/" 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.
