Journal ArticleDOI
NT-proBNP and diastolic left ventricular function in patients with Marfan syndrome
Petra Gehle,Peter N. Robinson,Frank R. Heinzel,Frank Edelmann,Mustafa Yigitbasi,Felix Berger,Volkmar Falk,Burkert Pieske,Ernst Wellnhofer +8 more
TL;DR: MFS patients presenting with normal ejection fraction show disturbed diastolic function and higher NT-proBNP levels, which is partly explained by aortic Z-score, which may detect early abnormalities and guide surveillance and prevention management of patients with MFS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transcatheter versus surgical aortic valve replacement: what does the latest evidence tell us?
Nick Freemantle,Alar Irs,Ruggero De Paulis,Domenico Pagano,Domenico Pagano,Volkmar Falk,Friedhelm Beyersdorf +6 more
TL;DR: The ongoing uncertainty about the place of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) was addressed by emerging evidence presented in part at the American College of Cardiology meeting (16-18 March 2019 New Orleans) and in the New England Journal of Medicine as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling of temperature mapping for quantitative dynamic infrared coronary angiography for intraoperative graft patency control.
Jens Garbade,C. Ullmann,Marcus Hollenstein,Markus J. Barten,Stephan Jacobs,Stefan Dhein,Thomas Walther,Jan Gummert,Volkmar Falk,Friedrich-Wilhelm Mohr +9 more
TL;DR: The developed heat-transfer model allows for precise measurement of graft flow by using dynamic infrared imaging and can be applied for noninvasive graft flow estimation in beating-heart surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI
A novel adhesion barrier facilitates reoperations in complex congenital cardiac surgery
T Walther,Ardawan Rastan,Ingo Dähnert,Volkmar Falk,S Jakobs,Friedrich-Wilhelm Mohr,Martin Kostelka +6 more
TL;DR: A bioresorbable surgical membrane leads to a significant reduction in the tenacity and amount of adhesions and is recommended for general use whenever repeat operation is anticipated in congenital as well as in adult cardiac surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI
