Patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction undergoing TAVI for aortic stenosis who experience an improvement in their ventricle’s function achieve mid-term mortality similar to that seen among ...
Following TAVI for severe aortic stenosis with a left ventricular ejection fraction less than 50%, about one-third of patients will have an improved LVEF, and this is associated with greater survival ...
Aortic stenosis (AS) is a progressive heart valve disease that leads to the narrowing of the aortic valve opening, restricting blood flow from the heart to the rest of the body.
A study has shown that a less invasive heart procedure for a common condition is just as effective as conventional open-heart surgery. A study led by researchers at the National Institute for Health ...
A proposal to switch more patients with aortic stenosis from conventional open surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) to transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) could help to clear the ...
A new non-surgical heart procedure is proving to be a game changer, especially for patients with critical underlying conditions. Traditionally, such patients were treated through open heart surgery, ...
