During the live time...
Valve-in-valve TAVI: session 1
27 Nov 2022 – From PCR London Valves 2022
ViV TAVI in a patient with previous Bentall's operation, ViV for a failed surgical aortic bioprosthesis with a misaligned mitral bioprosthesis, TAVI for severe aortic regurgitation caused by infective endocarditis after homograft surgery, and much more in this PCR LV 2022 session about ViV TAVI!
Optimising TAVI results in patients with small aortic annuli
22 Dec 2021 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2021
This session will enable you to discuss the clinical outcomes of TAVI results in patients with small aortic annuli, learn how to best measure and assess gradients when performing TAVI, and review a case of a patient with small annuli treated with TAVI.
From TAVI to mitral and tricupid - Applying evidence to expand patients' treatment options - Part 2 - Securing long-term patient options
22 Nov 2021 – From PCR London Valves
Nowadays, there is an increasing range of treatment options as far as tricuspid and mitral regurgitations are concerned, as you can notice in this session broadcast at PCR London Valves 2021 Congress, focusing on this topic area. Watch it now if you wish to understand how key...
