Balloon aortic valvuloplasty: results of the Valvuloplasty and Angioplasty of Congenital Anomalies Registry.
Data from 204 children and infants who underwent aortic balloon valvuloplasty between 1982 and 1986, reported to the Valvuloplasty and Angioplasty of Congenital Anomalies Registry, were reviewed. Valvuloplasty was successful in 192 of 204 children, reducing the peak systolic left ventricular ejection gradient from 77 +/- 2 to 30 +/- 1 mm Hg, p less than 0.001. The same degree of aortic stenosis...
متن کاملIndependent predictors of long-term results after balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty. Valvuloplasty and Angioplasty of Congenital Anomalies (VACA) Registry Investigators.
BACKGROUND This study was performed to determine independent predictors of long-term outcome after percutaneous balloon dilation of congenital pulmonary valve stenosis. Smaller follow-up series of patients after balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty have shown inconsistent results regarding the independent relation between prognostic factors and long-term outcome, as many patient selection and techni...
متن کاملPercutaneous balloon aortic valvuloplasty. Acute and 30-day follow-up results in 674 patients from the NHLBI Balloon Valvuloplasty Registry.
BACKGROUND Percutaneous balloon aortic valvuloplasty has been used as a therapeutic option for relief of valvular stenosis. This study describes patients undergoing initial percutaneous aortic balloon valvuloplasty enrolled in the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) Balloon Valvuloplasty Registry. METHODS AND RESULTS Extensive baseline procedural and postprocedural data were tab...
متن کاملBalloon Aortic Valvuloplasty
Following the description by Lababidi in 1983 of balloon aortic valvuloplasty, it has been adopted by several groups of workers for relief of aortic valve stenosis. The indications for the procedure are peak-to-peak systolic pressure gradients in excess of 50 mmHg with symptoms or ECG changes or a gradient greater than 70 mmHg irrespective of the symptoms or ECG changes. One or more balloon dil...
متن کاملBalloon valvuloplasty and angioplasty in congenital heart disease.
Balloon dilatation valvuloplasty was performed in 16 patients with pulmonary valve stenosis aged 10 days to 17 years. Gradients were reduced in all but two patients and were less than or equal to 20 mm Hg after the procedure in all but these two and one other. Unsatisfactory initial results in these three patients were attributed to the use of too small a balloon in one patient (gradient subseq...
