Risk scores in valvular heart disease interventions.
The risk scores used as assistance agents in valve diseases are validated worldwide; however, the data are not homogeneous. The epidemiological characteristics of each population require local validation of these risk tools. The percutaneous valve replacement, which is a reality in valvular diseases (especially aortic stenosis), is indicated for patients with high or prohibitive surgical risk. ...
متن کاملESC Working Group on Valvular Heart Disease Position Paper: assessing the risk of interventions in patients with valvular heart disease.
AIMS Risk scores provide an important contribution to clinical decision-making, but their validity has been questioned in patients with valvular heart disease (VHD), since current scores have been mainly derived and validated in adults undergoing coronary bypass surgery. The Working Group on Valvular Heart Disease of the European Society of Cardiology reviewed the performance of currently avail...
متن کاملCardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Imaging for Structural and Valvular Heart Disease Interventions.
The field of percutaneous interventions for the treatment of structural and valvular heart diseases has been expanding rapidly in the last 5 years. Noninvasive cardiac imaging has been a critical part of the planning, procedural guidance, and follow-up of these procedures. Although echocardiography and cardiovascular computed tomography are the most commonly used and studied imaging techniques ...
متن کاملImaging during Transcatheter Interventions for Valvular Heart Disease
Valvular heart disease is a growing field, and the number of new approaches for percutaneous treatment is increasing rapidly. These procedures usually cannot be performed with fluoroscopy alone; allowing echocardiography to be an essential role inside the Cath Lab. Three-dimensional echocardiography, and the introduction of a novel imaging modality that integrates live echocardiography and live...
متن کاملPercutaneous interventions in stenotic valvular heart disease complicating pregnancy.
Heart disease complicating pregnancy is a common and serious clinical condition. Cardiac disease does not preclude pregnancy but increases the risk to both the mother and the foetus, despite state-of-the-art obstetric and cardiac care. The incidence of maternal heart disease in Sri Lanka is about 1.5 per hundred deliveries. About 70% are of rheumatic origin [1]. It causes chronic valvular lesio...
