Assessment of Paravalvular Leak After TAVI by Hemodynamic Measurements and Cardiac MRI
Echocardiography and angiography systematically underestimate paravalvular leakage (PVL) as compared to cardiac MRI. Hemodynamic measurements are used to aid decision making directly after TAVI implantation. Prospective data comparing hemodynamic measurements with cardiac MRI are needed to design an optimal strategy to grade paravalvular leakage peri-operatively in order to optimize TAVI …

Mechanisms and Innovations in Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy
The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of multiple modalities of cardiac resynchronisation therapy using high precision acute electrical and haemodynamic measurements.These modalities include biventricular pacing and conduction system pacing utilising His bundle and left bundle pacing. Conduction system pacing is a more physiological form of pacing. …

Cancer Therapy Effects on the Heart
Anthracycline chemotherapies (e.g. doxorubicin, daunorubicin) is commonly given to treat pediatric cancer, and carries a risk of cardiotoxicity. Over the long term, children who receive these therapies have an increased risk of heart failure and early cardiovascular death. However, current strategies for identifying patients who are at risk prior to …

New Time Clock for ST-elevation MI Based on Biochemical Myocardial Infarction Onset Time
ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is one of the leading causes of death across the world and immediate treatment with either thrombolytics or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) results in lower mortality. It is essential to accurately determine the time of onset of myocardial infarction. Standard practice is to take …
