We randomly assigned 7635 participants with aortic stenosis in a 1:1 ratio to undergo TAVI with a CEP device (CEP group) or TAVI without a CEP device (control group). The primary outcome was ...

BACKGROUND: Real-world low-risk transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) outcomes in the United States have not been assessed comprehensively versus pivotal trials, which is a key component of ...

In principle, the blood volume passing through a stenotic valve (aortic stenosis) is equal to the blood volume proximal to the stenosis or in the LVOT (Figure 4). The stroke volume is equal to ...

Auscultation of the heart in patients with aortic stenosis can be very helpful in both the diagnosis and determining the severity of disease. The typical murmur of aortic stenosis is a high ...

DAVID MONTGOMERY: Aortic stenosis is a tightening of one of the four major valves of the heart. The aortic valve is particularly important because the aortic valve is the gateway to the rest of ...

In asymptomatic patients with mild to moderate aortic stenosis, the survival is similar to age-matched controls. [1,16] The mainstay of medical treatment for these patients is simply appropriate ...

Patients who underwent transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with a valve designed to treat aortic regurgitation had ...

A first-of-its-kind therapy successfully slowed plaque progression in patients with aortic stenosis. Ataciguat may reduce the need for surgical or transcatheter aortic valve replacement.

Medtronic has reported late-breaking data from the randomised Evolut Low Risk Trial’s five-year outcomes of the Evolut ...

This research could influence future clinical guidelines, improving the way severe aortic stenosis is assessed and ultimately leading to better patient outcomes. The study was conducted by the ...

Researchers found that at five years, patients with severe aortic stenosis who were treated with either TAVR or surgery had comparable rates of all-cause mortality or disabling stroke.

Aortic valve stenosis' is an often-overlooked condition and a growing health concern in ageing societies such as Thailand. With an increasing elderly population and a rise in age-related valve ...
