Filter by:Ilioinguinal and iliohypogastric (ILIH) nerve blocks are frequently performed for analgesia in inguinal surgery. The investigators hypothesized that preoperative ultrasound-guided ilioinguinal and iliohypogastric (ILIH) nerve blocks will produce better intraoperative analgesia and less analgesic requirement postoperatively in comparison to commonly used preoperative local infiltration anaesthesia for patients undergoing transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TF-TAVI).
To prove the non-inferiority of TAVR-CMR compared to TAVR-CT to guide TAVR according to clinical efficacy, defined as implantation success based on the VARC-2 criteria.
To investigate whether the collagen-based MANTA vascular closure device (VCD) is superior to suture-based VCDs in preventing vascular access site complications in patients undergoing transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement.
This study evaluates the clinical and hemodynamic outcome in patients after aortic valve replacement. Half of the patients will receive warfarin + aspirin and the other half will receive only aspirin. The investigators will focus mainly on early bioprosthesis degeneration.
This is a prospective, controlled, single-arm clinical investigation for the treatment of subjects with severe symptomatic aortic valve stenosis using Valvosoft® Pulsed Cavitational Ultrasound Therapy (PCUT) - First-In-man
Until a few years ago the only interventional option available for severe aortic stenosis was surgical aortic valve replacement. About a decade ago, a novel percutaneous technique was applied for the first time in humans, the transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Initially this procedure was reserved for those patients deemed too high risk for surgical intervention. As technology progressed in this domain, the indication for TAVI expanded to a broader population of patient with severe aortic stenosis. To-date there are no long-term data for mortality and this is the central question this study will explore in correlation with haemodynamic parameters. Essentially, this study will explore the effect of TAVI in the long term. All patients that had a TAVI within the RBH&HH NHS Foundation Trust between January 2008 and December 2017 will be included in the study. This is a retrospective study.
A single-center prospective interventional trial. Patients implanted with a sutureless bioprosthetic aortic valve at Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm, Sweden from 2012 will be eligible. 4-dimensional volume-rendered computed tomography (CT) of the heart will be performed. The aim of the CT is to assess valve geometry and hypo-atrenuated leaflet thickening. Results of the CT examination, preoperative clinical characteristics, and postoperative clinical data will be registered. Data will be collected prospectively and retrospectively. Informed consent will be obtained from patients meeting the inclusion criteria before the initiation of any study-specific procedures.
First-In-Man Study on the ACURATE TF™ Transfemoral Aortic Bioprosthesis Implantation in Patients with Severe Aortic Stenosis to collect human feasibility data pertaining to the safety and performance of the device.
Periprocedural bleeding events are frequent during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), mainly driven by vascular complications and are associated to a worse prognosis. Therefore, red blood cell (RBC) transfusion is often required, although it is associated with worsened outcomes. There is no consensus on the optimal transfusion strategy after bleeding. The Transfusion Requirements in Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TRITAVI) will be a multicenter retrospective registry enrolling consecutive patients who underwent TAVI; the primary aim of the study will be to test whether RBC transfusion is a marker or an independent predictor of adverse events.
The purpose of this clinical investigation is to characterize the safety of the next-generation FlexNav™ Delivery System for transfemoral implantation of the Portico™ Transcatheter Aortic Heart Valve in symptomatic severe aortic stenosis patients who are considered of high or extreme risk for surgical aortic valve replacement. Data from the study will be used to support CE Mark of the FlexNav™ Delivery System and Loading System in Europe.
