Abstract Aims Valve durability becomes a major issue as transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is expanding to populations with longer life expectancy. We sought i) determine the incidence of structural deterioration (SVD), ii) compare SVD between balloon-expandable (BE) and self-expandable (SE) valves, iii) analyze impact SVD. Methods Results 2040 patients who underwent TAVI (2007-2020) from 9 centers were included. After inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW), 1848 selected...
Information on mid-term outcomes of percutaneous pulmonary valve replacement (PPVR) with the Edwards Sapien (ES) in native right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) are limited. This study assesses 76 patients who underwent PPVR between 2016 and 2022, comparing (40.8%) non-native (59.2%) RVOTs. The primary endpoint was a composite endocarditis, reinterventions, cardiovascular death secondary included prosthetic dysfunction (PVD), tricuspid regurgitation (TR), ejection fraction (RVEF), indexed...
Background. Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) is a safe and effective treatment in symptomatic patients with mitral regurgitation (MR). We aimed to investigate the short-term impact of TEER on left ventricular (LV) performance identify echocardiographic prognostic indicators. Methods. Seventy-eight severe MR (organic functional etiologies) were included retrospectively. All had baseline echocardi-ography after followed up for primary composite endpoint (heart failure hos-pitalization...
Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) remain a prevalent undiagnosed condition frequently encountered in primary care. Objective We aimed to find the parameters that optimize diagnostic accuracy of pulse palpation detect AF. also create simple algorithm for selecting which individuals would benefit from and, if positive, receive an ECG Methods Nurses four Cardiology outpatient clinics palpated 7,844 pulses according randomized list arterial territories and durations measure immediately...
Longitudinal data on reverse cardiac remodeling and outcomes after transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) are limited.
Abstract Introduction A small proportion of acute myocardial infarctions (AMI) are embolic origin. There is limited information about the actual causes these AMIs, population they affect, and their prognosis. Purpose The purpose this study to describe clinical characteristics infarction (EMB-AMI) compare them with atherosclerotic (ATH-AMI). Methods Retrospective observational patients admitted for AMI at our centre (2010-2022). Clinical characteristics, ethology, prognosis described, EMB-AMI...
Abstract Aims European Systematic Coronary Risk Assessment 2 for Older Persons (SCORE2-OP) model has shown modest performance when externally validated in selected cohorts. We aim to investigate its predictive and clinical utility 10-year cardiovascular (CV) risk an unbiased representative cohort of older people a low CV country. Furthermore, we explore whether other or echocardiographic features could improve performance. Methods results A randomly individuals ≥65 years from primary care...
