Background: In the context of medical care, healthcare professionals are confronted with cardiopulmonary resuscitation, which can have long-term effects on the participants.
Objective: The aim was to develop, implement, and evaluate a protocol-supported post-resuscitation talk for practice in the intensive care unit of a university hospital.
Materials And Methods: Within the evidence-based nursing working group, university-qualified nurses performed a systematic literature search in CareLit (hpsmedia, Hungen, Germany), the Cochrane Library (Cochrane, London, England), LIVIVO (Deutsche Zentralbibliothek für Medizin, Cologne, Germany), and PubMed/MEDLINE (U.
Background: Treatment of severely calcified aortic valve stenosis is associated with a higher rate of paravalvular leakage (PVL) and permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI). We hypothesized that the self-expanding transcatheter heart valve (THV) prostheses Evolut Pro (EPro) is comparable to the balloon-expandable Sapien 3 (S3) regarding hemodynamics, PPI, and clinical outcome in these patients.
Methods: From 2014 to 2019, all patients with very severe calcification of the aortic valve who received an EPro or an S3 THV were included.
Objective: Residual paravalvular regurgitation (PVR) has been associated to adverse outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). This study sought to evaluate the impact of device landing zone (DLZ) calcification on residual PVR after TAVR with different next-generation transcatheter heart valves.
Methods: 642 patients underwent TAVR with a SAPIEN 3 (S3; n=292), ACURATE (NEO; n=166), Evolut R (ER; n=132) or Lotus (n=52).
