TL;DR: TAVR using the next-generation THV is clinically safe and effective for treating older patients with severe AS at increased operative risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of finite element analysis to the design of tissue leaflets for a percutaneous aortic valve.
TL;DR: In this study, a simplified version of Fung's elastic constitutive model for skin was implemented using finite element analysis (FEA) and applied to the modelling of bovine and kangaroo pericardium, and it was concluded that kangaro pericARDium is suitable for PAV applications, and superior to bovines pericards, due to its lower thickness and greater extensibility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large pericardial effusions due to systemic lupus erythematosus: a report of eight cases
TL;DR: It is concluded that large pericardial effusions due to SLE are rare, and associated with nephritis, LSE and myocardial dysfunction, and treatment with steroids and complete drainage is associated with a good cardiac outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transjugular Tricuspid Valve-in-Valve Replacement
TL;DR: The patient is a 38-year-old woman with rheumatic heart disease requiring surgery 21 years ago, and given the limited lifespan of a bioprosthesis in a young person, she would then require her third sternotomy at a young age.
