Multivalvular disease: mitral and aortic valve challenges explored
03 Feb 2024 – From PCR Imaging Valves Madrid 2024
Explore cutting-edge transcatheter valve interventions for mitral and aortic valve disorders, including valve-in-valve procedures and management strategies for paravalvular leakages, and learn about diagnosing and treating mitral annular calcification and transcatheter options in infective endocarditis.
Multivalvular disease: diagnostic challenges and treatment strategies for aortic and mitral valve disorders
03 Feb 2024 – From PCR Imaging Valves Madrid 2024
Addressing the complex diagnostic challenges in aortic stenosis and regurgitation, this session examines the timing of treatment initiation and the decision-making process when aortic valve disease coincides with aortic pathology. It also explores the ongoing healthcare burden posed by mitral regurgitation and stenosis, emphasizing the importance...
Comprehensive assessment of mitral valve disorders and treatment outcomes
02 Feb 2024 – From PCR Imaging Valves Madrid 2024
This session offers a comprehensive exploration of mitral valve disorders, covering diagnosis and severity assessment from multiple perspectives. From morphology-based diagnosis to echocardiography and CMR assessments, gain insights into distinguishing between rheumatic and calcific mitral stenosis, evaluating outcomes post-TMVR and surgical repair, and assessing bioprosthetic and...
Optimizing case selection and procedure guidance in transcatheter mitral valve interventions
02 Feb 2024 – From PCR Imaging Valves Madrid 2024
This session examines the critical aspect of case selection for various transcatheter mitral valve interventions, ranging from TEER in secondary mitral regurgitation to balloon valvotomy in mitral stenosis and transcatheter mitral valve replacement. It explores the intricacies of procedure planning and guidance for TEER, alongside methods...
Latest developments in interventional valve therapies
06 Dec 2023 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2023
In this GulfPCR-GIM 2023 session, learn more about RESILIA, the calcium-blocking tissue found in Edwards' newest innovative system: the Sapien 3 Ultra Resilia. Then, move on from TAVI to the first mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) performed in the Middle East using the PASCAL Precision System.
Challenging structural interventions: part 1
06 Dec 2023 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2023
In these slides, explore a selection of cases focusing on challenging structural interventions, with a case of complex bicuspid aortic valve, and a special focus on TAVI dysfunction.
20 years of TEER: what have we learned and where are we going?
05 Dec 2023 – From PCR London Valves 2023
Bernard Prendergast reviews the history of mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) with Francesco Maisano and Azeem Latib, from its earliest beginnings to its future. They look back at the difficulties encountered, the way these were overcome, so that the technique could finally emerge and be accepted,...
Imaging essentials for mitral valve interventions: pre, peri & post-procedure
18 Jan 2024 – From PCR London Valves 2023
Marta Sitges, Victoria Delgado and Edwin Ho discuss imaging essentials for mitral interventions. They start with an analysis of the most important pre-procedural imaging modalities, reflecting on the role of both TOE and TEE. As for the intra-procedural imaging, they focus on the key skills that...
Who are eligible patients for transcatheter mitral valve replacement?
05 Dec 2023 – From PCR London Valves 2023
While surgical mitral valve replacement or repair and transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) are two well established techniques, Alison Duncan and Lenard Conradi explore the place that transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) now holds.
They describe how and why patients who, for clinical reasons, are not suitable candidates...
Focus on mitral valves
22 Nov 2023 – From PCR London Valves 2023
Didier Tchétché and Christopher Cook have selected three key highlights from the mitral learning at #PCRLV 2023:
- The celebration of the 20th anniversary of the first TEER, marked by an emotional moment and illustrated with a challenging LIVE case of mitral TEER,
- Imaging at the core of this...
