We report 30-day, 1-year, and 3-year outcomes for a new TAVR programme that used five different transcatheter heart valve (THV) systems. From 2014 to 2020, 122 consecutive patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) received TAVR based on the Heart Team decision. Outcomes were analysed for the whole study population and in addition the first 63 patients (Cohort A, 2014 to 2019) were compared to the last 59 patients (Cohort B, 2019 to 2020).

Objective: To assess effects of basal-bolus insulin treatment (BBIT) with lispro and neutral protamine Hagedorn (NPH) insulins, compared with NPH insulin alone, on serum fructosamine concentration (SFC) and postprandial blood glucose concentration (BGC) in dogs with clinically well-controlled diabetes mellitus and postprandial hyperglycemia fed a high insoluble fiber-content diet.

Animals: 6 client-owned dogs with diabetes mellitus.

Procedures: Blood samples were collected for BGC and SFC measurement in hospitalized dogs just before feeding and routine SC NPH insulin administration (time 0); samples were collected for BGC measurement every 30 minutes for 2 hours, then every 2 hours for up to 10 additional hours.
