Journal ArticleDOI
Ministernotomy versus conventional sternotomy for aortic valve replacement : A systematic review and meta-analysis
TL;DR: Ministernotomy can be performed safely for aortic valve replacement, without increased risk of death or other major complication, however, few objective advantages have been shown.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel NOTCH1 mutations in patients with bicuspid aortic valve disease and thoracic aortic aneurysms.
Stephen H. McKellar,David J. Tester,Marineh Yagubyan,Ramanath Majumdar,Michael J. Ackerman,Thoralf M. Sundt +5 more
TL;DR: Identification of aneurysm-predisposing susceptibility genes may lead to gene-directed surgical therapy of the ascending aorta for patients with bicuspid aortic valves.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extracorporeal Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation in Adults. Interim Guideline Consensus Statement From the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization.
Alexander Sacha C Richardson,Joseph E. Tonna,Vinodh B Nanjayya,Paul Nixon,Darryl Abrams,Lakshmi Raman,Stephen Bernard,Simon J. Finney,Brian Grunau,Scott T. Youngquist,Stephen H. McKellar,Zachary Shinar,Jason A. Bartos,Lance B Becker,Demetris Yannopoulos,Jan Bˇelohlávek,Lionel Lamhaut,Vincent Pellegrino +17 more
TL;DR: The ELSO guideline as discussed by the authors is intended to be a practical guide to implementing ECPR and the early management following establishment of ECMO support where a paucity of high-quality evidence exists, a consensus has been reached amongst the authors to provide guidance to the clinician.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiac Recovery During Long-Term Left Ventricular Assist Device Support
Omar Wever-Pinzon,Stavros G. Drakos,Stephen H. McKellar,Benjamin D. Horne,William T. Caine,Abdallah G. Kfoury,Dean Y. Li,James C. Fang,Josef Stehlik,Craig H. Selzman +9 more
TL;DR: The incidence of cardiac recovery is higher in patients implanted with an a priori LVAD implantation strategy of bridge-to-recovery (BTR) and a recovery predictive model, I-CARS, suggests a 24% probability of successful LVAD explantation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-Term Risk of Aortic Events Following Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Bicuspid Aortic Valves
TL;DR: Despite a true risk for aortic events after AVR for BAV, the occurrence of aorti dissection was low and any incremental surgical risk imposed by prophylactic replacement of the ascending aorta must be equally low.
