Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD), who often suffer from heart failure (HF) due to past surgeries and require better treatment data to improve their care.
- Researchers will collect data from a multi-country register, the ARTORIA-R, identifying ACHD patients listed for heart transplantation from 1989-2020, using both retrospective and prospective methods.
- The goal is to track outcomes like clinical worsening, death on the waiting list, and overall mortality after transplantation to enhance understanding and management of advanced heart failure in this population.
Purpose: Ambulatory peripheral vascular interventions have been steadily increasing. In ambulatory procedures, 4F devices might be particularly useful having the potential to reduce access-site complications; however, further evidence on their safety and efficacy is needed.
Materials And Methods: BIO4AMB is a prospective, non-randomized mulitcentre, non-inferiority trial conducted in 35 centres in Europe and Australia comparing the use of 4F- and 6F-compatible devices.
