Article Synopsis
- Telemonitoring tools help people with chronic diseases manage their health at home and catch problems early, which can save money on hospital visits.
- Researchers wanted to see how patients with heart issues felt about a special device that tracks their health over time.
- Twenty-six patients tried the device for a week and answered questions about how easy it was to use, how satisfied they were, and whether it helped their healthcare experience.
Background: Embolization of debris can complicate transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) causing stroke. Cerebral embolism protection (CEP) devices can divert or trap debris.
Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of CEP during TAVI vs the standard procedure.
Background: Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) showed safety and efficacy in patients with severe aortic stenosis. Commissural alignment (CA) during TAVR has the potential to reduce the impact of the prostheses on accessibility of coronary arteries, as misalignment of the neocommissures could cause partial overlap with coronary ostia. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the impact of CA on coronary overlap rates.
