Recently, an increase in the number of patients with severe aortic stenosis eligible for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has been observed worldwide. In order to reduce waiting lists, provide to all patients referred to us equal access to care and to further improve the collaboration with spoke centers, we developed a specific Hub & Spoke specific protocol for TAVI. According to our protocol, a clinical selection (with echo and computed tomography scan) is done by Spoke centers, the case is discussed with a multidisciplinary team online and the procedure is planned (access, valve type size).

Objective: To assess the intraoperative use of 3-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (3D TEE) in cardiac surgical centers, the authors created a survey aimed at evaluating the availability of equipment and the use of 3D TEE for specific surgical and interventional procedures and single-image modalities. The respondents were asked to identify the perceived impact on patient management and current limitations to its routine use.
Design: A multiple choice 25-question online survey submitted to the members of the European Association of Cardiothoracic Anesthesia and Intensive Care (EACTAIC) on December 6, 2021, and closed on January 31, 2022.

Introduction: The number of interventional procedures, such as transcatheter aortic valve replacements or thoracic endovascular aortic repairs, is on the rise. Intraprocedural cardiac arrest is a rare occurrence during high-risk procedures. Modern hybrid-operating tables may adversely affect chest compression quality due to their flexibility.

Background: Stent-assisted coiling (SAC) is a well-established method for treatment of wide-necked intracranial aneurysms. In this multicenter, retrospective case series we evaluated SAC with a new low-profile, laser-cut stent with an antithrombogenic hydrophilic polymer coating (pEGASUS-HPC) for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms.
Methods: Patients treated with pEGASUS-HPC SAC for one or more intracranial aneurysms were retrospectively included.
