Background: Early extubation (EEx) after cardiac surgery has been essentially studied in patients with short cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Whether preoperative spirometry can predict EEx remains controversial.

Objectives: To investigate whether EEx can be a goal and predicted by preoperative spirometry in valve surgery requiring long CPB.

Methods: Nonemergent consecutive 210 patients who underwent valve surgery from January 2014 to August 2019 were investigated retrospectively.

Results: EEx (<8 h) was achieved in 93 (44.3%) patients without increasing adverse events. Patients with EEx had shorter ICU and hospital stays than those without EEx. Multivariate analysis showed that higher estimated glomerular filtration rate and mitral valve repair were significant protective factors for EEx. Conversely, moderate and severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease defined by spirometry, longer operation, CPB, and aortic cross-clamp time were significant risk factors.

Conclusions: EEx should be the goal in current valve surgery. Preoperative spirometry is a significant predictor.

Automatic 4D mitral valve segmentation from transesophageal echocardiography: a semi-supervised learning approach.

Med Biol Eng Comput

January 2025

Department of Electronics, Information and Bioengineering, Politecnico di Milano, Milan, Italy.

Performing automatic and standardized 4D TEE segmentation and mitral valve analysis is challenging due to the limitations of echocardiography and the scarcity of manually annotated 4D images. This work proposes a semi-supervised training strategy using pseudo labelling for MV segmentation in 4D TEE; it employs a Teacher-Student framework to ensure reliable pseudo-label generation. 120 4D TEE recordings from 60 candidates for MV repair are used.

Background: The human microbiome is crucial in regulating intestinal and systemic functions. While its role in cardiovascular disease is better understood, the link between intestinal microbiota and valvular heart diseases (VHD) remains largely unexplored.

Methods: Peer-reviewed studies on human, animal or cell models analysing gut microbiota profiles published up to April 2024 were included.

Severe mitral regurgitation (MR) following surgical repair of the mitral valve poses a significant clinical challenge. Patients who have undergone surgery are typically at high risk for a second operation. This report details the case of a 54-year-old male who underwent aortic valve replacement and mitral valve repair using a 34-ring, 14 years prior.

According to current guidelines, patients with heart valve disease should be followed by Heart Valve Clinics (HVCs). Regular quality analysis is a major prerequisite of an HVC's program, but few data have been reported so far. We retrospectively collected patients with isolated, native aortic valve stenosis who had been visited in our HVC at least once between 2021 and 2024.
