Objective: Aim: To assess, analyze and present early postoperative results of transcatheter aortic valve implantation in patients with aortic stenosis.
Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: During the period from 2017 to 2023, we examined in total 77 patients with severe aortic stenosis and high risk of surgery who were eligible for the TAVI procedure at the "Heart Institute Ministry of Health of Ukraine".
Results: Results: Before implantation, the mean and maximum aortic valve gradients were 53.

Division of Neuroscience Critical Care, Departments of Neurology, Neurosurgery, and Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, USA.
Article Synopsis
- A study was conducted to compare stroke incidences and mortality rates in critically ill COVID-19 patients from low-and middle-income countries (LMICs) and high-income countries (HICs).
- The results showed that stroke incidence was significantly higher in LMICs (35.7 per 1000 admitted-days) compared to HICs (17.6 per 1000 admitted-days), with patients from LMICs also facing higher mortality rates (43.6% vs. 29.2%).
- The findings highlight the need for better stroke diagnosis and healthcare resource allocation in LMICs, as both higher income status and the presence of stroke are associated with increased risk of death

State Institution "Heart Institute Ministry of Health of Ukraine", Kiev, Ukraine.
Unlabelled: The course of COVID-19 with an incidence of 15-42% can be complicated by the development of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The mortality rate with severe forms exceeds 60%, which sometimes requires extracorporeal methods of life support.
Aim: The aim of this study was to analyse the therapeutic efficacy of V-V ECMO in patients with ARDS caused by SARS-CoV-2.

State Institution "Heart Institute Ministry of Health of Ukraine", Kyiv, Ukraine.
Article Synopsis
- The study focused on the effects of two different anesthesia schemes during coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) on postoperative outcomes in 60 patients.
- Patients were divided into a low-opioid anesthesia group (30) and a standard anesthesia group (30), with blood interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels measured before and after surgery.
- Results showed that the low-opioid group had significantly lower IL-6 levels, shorter mechanical ventilation time, reduced occurrence of low cardiac output syndrome, and shorter ICU stays compared to the standard group.
The Case of Myocardial Infarction in a Fifteen-Year-Old Adolescent Caused by Toxic Substances.

Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Department, P. L. Shupyk National Medical Academy of Postgraduate Education, Kyiv, Ukraine.
The article reveals about the clinical accident of myocardial infarction in an adolescent after visiting a night club, where he had been drinking tequila. A "sniper" test was performed at home and showed synthetic marihuana in urine. The uniqueness of this case is the adolescent's difficult premorbid condition (severe diabetes mellitus type 1 and sub-compensated hypothyreosis) and the clinical course of the disease had caused difficulty in diagnosis which led to a belated hospitalization on the third day.
