Objective To assess temporal trends of patient baseline characteristics, risk profile and
outcome of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) between 2013 and 2020 …

Objectives The goal of this study is to analyze the evolution of technology in artificial heart
valves for solving the problem of aortic stenosis (a narrowing of the aortic valve opening) …

The use of bioprosthetic prostheses during surgical aortic valve replacements has increased
dramatically over the last two decades, accounting for over 85% of surgical implantations …

Background The burden of valvular heart disease (VHD) has increased significantly among
ageing populations, yet remains poorly understood in the present-day context of …

The use of 7 Tesla (T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is expanding across medical
specialties, particularly, clinical neurosciences and orthopedics. Investigational 7 T MRI has …

The 2020 American Health Association/American College of Cardiology valve guidelines
recommend surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for symptomatic patients with aortic …

Background The trends in outcomes in patients who undergo transcatheter aortic valve
replacement are well described in the literature. Some of these trends are driven by the …

The superiority of transcatheter (TAVR) over surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for
severe aortic stenosis (AS) has not been fully demonstrated in a real-world setting. This …

Background: Conduction abnormality post-transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI)
remains clinically significant and usually requires chronic pacing. The effect of right …

Introduction: Due to the selective criteria and short-term follow-up of previous transcatheter
aortic valve implantation (TAVI) trials, the coronary revascularization incidence after TAVI …
