Abstract

Sutureless aortic valves are deemed suitable for patients considered at high risk for surgery. The objective of this study is to evaluate the perioperative results of implanting a sutureless valve in elderly persons, compared with a stented biological valve in the aortic position. Between 2011 and 2015, 76 patients underwent aortic valve replacement with the Perceval prosthesis (Sorin Group, Saluggia, Italy). The group was compared with 319 consecutive patients who received aortic valve replacement with the stented valve in that same period. The mean age of patients was 83 ± 2 years in the Perceval group and 83 ± 3 years in the stented valve group (P = .3). Preoperative demographics were similar in both groups. Median cardiopulmonary bypass and crossclamp times were lower in the Perceval group than in the stented valve group (P < .001). Mortality was 5% in the Perceval group and 6% in the stented valve group (P = .8). There were more pacemaker implantations in the Perceval group than in the stented valve group (17% vs 8%; P = .02). A subgroup analysis of patients who underwent aortic valve replacement and concomitant procedures showed the same results as the entire cohort. Aortic valve replacement with a sutureless prosthesis r...Continue Reading

Atrial Filbrillation

Atrial fibrillation refers to the abnormal heart rhythm characterized by rapid and irregular beating of the atria. Here is the latest research.

Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia that is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly due to stroke and thromboembolism. Here is the latest research.

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.
