Aortic valve replacement (AVR) does not usually restore physiological flow profiles. Complex flow profiles are associated with aorta dilatation, ventricle remodeling, aneurysms, and development of atherosclerosis. All these affect long-term morbidity and often require reoperations. In this pilot study, ...

The current paradigm for the management of patients with aortic stenosis (AS) incorporates a growing trend toward referral for surgery at progressively earlier stages in its natural history, even among individuals who are asymptomatic. This evolution reflects the contributions of several factors, includin...
This review provides an in-depth analysis of the effect of length of stay (LOS), comorbidities, and procedural complications on the cost-effectiveness of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in comparison to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR). We found that the average LOS was ...
To explore the effect of surgical aortic valve replacement on quality of life and the variance with age, particularly in patients at risk of deterioration. Methods In an observational, multicenter, cohort study of routinely collected health data, patients undergoing and electively operated between Janu...

Deliriumis more common in patients undergoing surgical rather thantranscatheter aortic valve replacement(SAVR, TAVR) but predicted worse in-hospital outcomes after both procedures, a new study suggests. "Patients experience delirium fairly frequently after aorticvalve replacement, whether transcatheter or sur...
