Patient-specific finite element analysis of transcatheter aortic valve implantation
Aortic valve stenosis represents an important public health problem which can be treated through transcatheter aortic valve implantation. Being a quite recent technology, many aspects related to such a minimallyinvasive procedure need further investigation (e.g., paravalvular leakage). The well-established finite element method represents a possible technology to study such aspects within a vir...
متن کاملReview of patient-specific simulations of transcatheter aortic valve implantation
Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) accounts for one of the most promising new cardiovascular procedures. This minimally invasive technique is still at its early stage and is constantly developing thanks to imaging techniques, computer science, biomechanics and technologies of prosthesis and delivery tools. As a result, patient-specific simulation can find an exciting playground in T...
متن کاملTranscatheter Aortic Valve Implantation
A 97-year-old man was referred for assessment to our transcather aortic valve implantation (TAVI) team. He had suffered multiple hospitalizations for heart failure with a signifi cantly elevated BNP at 1830 pg/mL. At the time of assessment, he had grade IV New York Heart Association (NYHA) symptoms. Until recently, he had been working actively, but this had subsequently been severely limited by...
متن کاملTranscatheter Aortic Valve Implantation
Calcific aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common form of degenerative heart valve disease in developed countries. AS predominantly affects the elderly with a prevalence of 4% in people over the age of 80 years. With increasing longevity and an ageing population the absolute number of people afflicted with AS is set to rise. The clinical course of the disease is insidious at first (Ross & Braunw...
متن کاملTranscatheter aortic valve implantation
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation was developed to offer a therapeutic solution to patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis who are not candidates for conventional aortic valve replacement. The improvement in transcatheter aortic valve implantation outcomes is still of concern in the areas of stroke, vascular injury, heart block, paravalvular regurgitation and valve durability. Co...
