Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) with a 2-component valve-in-ring (ViR) system is associated with an immediate reduction in mitral annular dimensions across all 3 planes measured, an annuloplasty-like effect tied to the system's subannular docking ring, according to a new retrospective, single-center analysis.
Angiography could be a “practical, wire-free alternative” to physiologic guidance of fractional flow reserve (FFR), according to researchers in the PROVISION study, which found angiography noninferior to gold standard pressure wires.
Venous ultrasound may provide an early measure of treatment response and prognosis following transcatheter tricuspid valve intervention (TTVI), new study findings suggest.
In a sub-analysis of the CHIP-BCIS3 trial, cardiologists say elective left ventricular (LV) unloading with a microaxial flow pump (mAFP) lowers inotrope requirements in patients undergoing complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), but LV unloading with an mAFP doesn’t improve pulse pressure nor prevent reduced blood flow.
Mechanical thrombectomy improves functional outcomes in patients with large-core stroke versus medical management (MM) alone between 90-days and 1-year post-stroke, 1-year data from the TESLA trial show.
