Rapid-Deployment Aortic Valve Replacement after Previous Mechanical Valve Implantation
Recent studies report a reproducible reduction of myocardial ischemic and cardiopulmonary bypass times along with excellent hemodynamics and low rates of paravalvular leakage for rapid-deployment valves. A 68-year-old female patient with aortic stenosis and a mechanical mitral valve which was implanted in 2006 received rapid-deployment aortic valve replacement. The procedure could be performed ...
متن کاملCurrent Clinical Evidence on Rapid Deployment Aortic Valve Replacement
Aortic stenosis is the most common valvular heart disease in the Western world. It is caused primarily by age-related degeneration and progressive calcification typically detected in patients 65 years and older. In patients presenting with symptoms of heart failure, the average survival rate is only 2 years without appropriate treatment. Approximately one half of all patients die within the fir...
متن کاملAortic valve replacement with sutureless and rapid deployment aortic valve prostheses
Aortic valve stenosis is the most common valve disease in the western world. Over the past few years the number of aortic valve replacement (AVR) interventions has increased with outcomes that have been improved despite increasing age of patients and increasing burden of comorbidities. However, despite such excellent results and its well-established position, conventional AVR has undergone grea...
متن کاملEccentric exercise: many questions unanswered.
LOCOMOTION IS ARGUABLY one of the most ubiquitous and important manifestations of life, equally important to feeding as to escape predators. Evolution came up with three molecular motors to power motion: the actomyosin system Levitsky (11); the microtubule, dynein-based flagellar motors of eukaryotes (13); and the flagellar rotary motors of bacteria (15). All three systems serve propulsion, i.e...
متن کاملRapid deployment valve system shortens operative times for aortic valve replacement through right anterior minithoracotomy
BACKGROUND There is growing evidence from the literature that right anterior minithoracotomy aortic valve replacement (RAT-AVR) improves clinical outcome. However, increased cross clamp time is the strongest argument for surgeons not performing RAT-AVR. Rapid deployment aortic valve systems have the potential to decrease cross-clamp time and ease this procedure. We assessed clinical outcome of ...
