Journal ArticleDOI
Konsensuspapier der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Kardiologie (DGK) und der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Thorax‑, Herz- und Gefäßchirurgie (DGTHG) zur kathetergestützten Aortenklappenimplantation (TAVI) 2020
Karl-Heinz Kuck,Sabine Bleiziffer,Holger Eggebrecht,Stephan M. Ensminger,Christian Frerker,Helge Möllmann,Holger Nef,Holger Thiele,Hendrik Treede,Gerhard Wimmer-Greinecker,Thomas Walther +10 more
TL;DR: A consensus paper on the topic that takes into account the most recent results from randomized controlled trials and registries is issued, with special emphasis on patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) and low operative risk (STS score ≤4%).
Journal ArticleDOI
Anatomic, electrical, and mechanical factors affecting bipolar endocardial electrograms. Impact on catheter ablation of manifest left free-wall accessory pathways.
TL;DR: The stepwise inclusion of the four electrogram criteria introduced in this study may improve the efficacy of RF catheter ablation of a manifest left free-wall AP at its ventricular insertion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Attenuation of cardiac remodelling by endocardial injection of erythropoietin: ultrasonic strain-rate imaging in a model of hibernating myocardium
Carsten Schneider,Kai Jaquet,Rainer Malisius,Stephan Geidel,Edda Bahlmann,Sigrid Boczor,Thomas Rau,Matthias Antz,Karl-Heinz Kuck,Korff Krause +9 more
TL;DR: Endocardial EPO injection may induce cardioprotective effects in chronic ischaemic myocardium and helps to obtain the myocardial contractile reserve, objectified by ultrasonic strain-rate imaging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevention of atrial fibrillation by complete compartmentalization of the left atrium using a catheter technique.
TL;DR: LA Compartmentalization for AF Prevention: Right atrial compartmentalization has been demonstrated to only reduce the number of atrial fibrillation episodes: left atrial Fibrillation still occurs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Balloon-expandable valves for degenerated mitral xenografts or failing surgical rings.
Ulrich Schäfer,Ralf Bader,Christian Frerker,Dimitry Schewel,Thomas Thielsen,Michael Schmoeckel,Felix Kreidel,Karl-Heinz Kuck +7 more
TL;DR: TMViVI with the balloon-expandable SAPIEN XT valve for ViV or ViR implantation is feasible with promising acute transmitral haemodynamic data, Nevertheless, sustained long-term performance remains to be demonstrated in the future.
