The Use of Adenosine to Enable Safe Implantation of Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve
نویسندگان
چکیده
High precision is necessary during percutaneous transcatheter heart valve implantation. The precision of the implantation has been established by increasing the heart rate (usually to 200 beats per minute) to the point of significantly reduced cardiac output and thus minimizing valve movement. Routinely, this tachycardia is induced by rapid pacing. Here we report a case of failure to pace during valve-in-valve (VIV) Edwards Sapien XT implantation in the tricuspid valve position. Transient cardiac arrest was induced by intravenous adenosine injection enabling accurate valve implantation.

متن کاملTricuspid Valve Endocarditis in an Intravenous Drug Abuser: A Case Report
Recently, there have been more reports of cardiac valve infections due to the increasing number of intravenous (IV) drug abusers and chronic renal failure patients. Among cardiac valves, tricuspid valve is most commonly affected in the course of endocarditis. Appropriate management of these patients is a challenging and controversial issue in the field of cardiac surgery. Treatment options in s...
متن کاملEC CARDIOLOGY Case Report A Case of Folded Corevalve: The Importance of Baseline Computed Tomographic Information
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) without balloon pre-dilation is feasible and safe, resulting in similar acute safety and efficacy as the current standard approach of TAVI with pre-dilation. The valve distortion during the CoreValve implantation is thought likely to be due to a fold generated on the inflow end of the valve. The fold may persist if deployed into an annulus with a h...
متن کاملNoninvasive pacing during transfemoral implantation of the Edwards SAPIEN valve for tricuspid valve bioprosthesis stenosis
Introduction Transcatheter implantation of balloon expandable valves in high-risk patients with degenerated tricuspid bioprostheses has been reported since 2010 [1, 2]. Although there have been cases where the SAPIEN valve was implanted in the tricuspid position without rapid pacing [3, 4], invasive rapid ventricular pacing is usually applied during valve deployment. We present a case report do...

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has been established as a less invasive alternative to open-heart surgery in inoperable or high-risk patients presenting with symptomatic severe aortic valve stenosis. The feasibility and efficacy of valve-in-valve implantation in degenerated surgical aortic bioprostheses have also been described and can currently be considered a valuable treatment ...
