Desproporción prótesis-paciente luego de reemplazo de válvula aórtica y seguimiento a 6 años

Rev. chil. cardiol; 37 (1), 2018
Resumen: Introducción: La desproporción prótesis-paciente (DPP) tras cirugía valvular ocurre cuando el área efectiva de orificio protésico (AEO) es fisiológicamente demasiado pequeño en relación con el tamaño del paciente, lo que resulta en gradientes postoperatorios elevados. Material y mét...

Aortic valve replacement with a conventional stented bioprosthesis versus sutureless bioprosthesis: a study of 763 patients

Abstract Objective: The aim of this retrospective study was to compare early postoperative outcomes after aortic valve replacement (AVR) with sutureless bioprostheses and conventional stented bioprostheses implanted through median sternotomy. Methods: From January 2011 to December 2016, 763 patients un...

Thrombocytopenia after aortic valve replacement: comparison between sutureless perceval s valve and perimount magna ease bioprosthesis

Abstract Introduction: The incidence of postoperative thrombocytopenia after aortic valve replacement (AVR) with the Perceval S Sutureless bioprosthesis remains unclear. The aim of this study was to report thrombocytopenia associated with the use of sutureless AVR. Methods: The data was collected retro...

An Alternative Method to Calculate Simplified Projected Aortic Valve Area at Normal Flow Rate

Arq. bras. cardiol; 110 (2), 2018
Abstract Background: Simplified projected aortic valve area (EOAproj) is a valuable echocardiographic parameter in the evaluation of low flow low gradient aortic stenosis (LFLG AS). Its widespread use in clinical practice is hampered by the laborious process of flow rate (Q) calculation. Objetive: This...

Implante transcateter valvar aórtico (TAVI): onde estamos em 2018

Por cerca de 15 anos, o Implante Transcateter Valvar Aórtico (TAVI) passou por avanços tecnológicos, adquiriu experiência acumulada e tornou-se alternativa à cirurgia convencional. A principal indicação é a estenose aórtica degenerativa do idoso. Evidências atuais foram ampliadas para aqueles d...

Evaluación de la estrategia de terapia antitrombótica posterior al cambio valvular aórtico con válvulas biológicas en pacientes de bajo riesgo trombótico

Arch. cardiol. Méx; 88 (5), 2018
Resumen De acuerdo a las guías actuales, aún es materia de debate el uso de anticoagulación en los primeros 3 meses en pacientes de bajo riesgo trombótico sometidos a cambio valvular aórtico con prótesis biológicas. En base a la evidencia actual, la aspirina a dosis bajas es razonable como alterna...

Permanent Pacing After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: Incidence, Predictors and Evolution of Left Ventricular Function

Arq. bras. cardiol; 109 (6), 2017
Abstract Background: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a well-established procedure; however, atrioventricular block requiring permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI) is a common complication. Objectives: To determine the incidence, predictors and clinical outcomes of PPI after TAVI, foc...
