Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a common treatment for severe aortic stenosis (AS), but it carries the risk of severe complications, including device embolization. We present a case of a TAVR valve embolization into the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT), diagnosed with transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) shortly after device deployment. The dislodged valve was successfully retrieved from the LVOT into the aorta, flattened, and stabilized with a thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair (TEVAR) stent, enabling the successful implantation of a new TAVR valve.

Background: Protruding coronary artery stents can adversely affect transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) procedure. Current evidence on the topic is limited.

Aims: We aim to study the clinical feasibility and safety of flaring of protruding coronary artery stents before TAVR to reduce interaction with transcatheter heart valves.

Objectives: This study aimed to systematically develop a nurse-led complex intervention to enhance the quality of and adherence to home-based cardiac rehabilitation (HBCR) care for patients who have undergone transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). The intervention integrated stakeholder perspectives, expert insights, empirical evidence, and theoretical frameworks.

Methods: We initially searched for initial cardiac rehabilitation strategies based on the "Behavior Change Wheel" model and literature review.
