Mashup Score: 0The Role of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation in Patients With Bicuspid Valves in 2023 - 11 month(s) ago
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital heart defect, occurring in 1% to 2% of the general population.1 Compared with individuals having normal tricuspid aortic valves, those with BAVs are more likely to develop calcification on valve leaflets and raphe and dilation of the ascending aorta (aortopathy)—and at a much earlier age. For highly select patients with severe BAV…

Mashup Score: 0Management of Cardiogenic Shock: Present and Future - 11 month(s) ago
The prevalence of cardiogenic shock (CS) is high and involves approximately 1 in every 6 patients admitted to the cardiac intensive care unit. Despite the introduction of acute mechanical circulatory support (AMCS) and the institution of “shock teams,” in-hospital mortality for patients with CS remains between 30% and 40%.1 A striking paradox in the management of this critically ill population is…

Mashup Score: 1Machine learning based on computational fluid dynamics enables geometric design optimisation of the NeoVAD blades - Scientific Reports - 11 month(s) ago
The NeoVAD is a proposed paediatric axial-flow Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD), small enough to be implanted in infants. The design of the impeller and diffuser blades is important for hydrodynamic performance and haemocompatibility of the pump. This study aimed to optimise the blades for pump efficiency using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), machine learning and global optimisation….

Mashup Score: 3
AbstractBackground. The transradial approach (TRA) to coronary angiography reduces vascular complications but is associated with greater radiation exposure than the transfemoral approach (TFA). It is unknown whether exposure remains higher when TRA is performed by experienced operators.Methods. Patients were randomly, prospectively assigned to TRA or TFA. The primary end point was patient…
