Shot in the simulation lab at the PCR London Valves 2021 Congress, this session enables you to see some of the anatomical specimens and devices currently used for transcatheter mitral valve replacement and witness a Tendyne implantation from start to finish using a simulated heart.
Mitral valve disease: diagnosis and treatment selection
23 Nov 2021 – From PCR London Valves 2021
In the first part of this PCR London Valves 2021 session, review the quantification of mitral regurgitation and learn how to better approach patients. Then, in the second part, study patient selection for specific types of procedures.
Tricuspid valve disease: state-of-the-art
23 Nov 2021 – From PCR London Valves 2021
Imagine that you are faced with a patient with severe tricuspid regurgitation. You may ask yourself many questions, such as: what could be the prognosis of this patient? What is his/her life expectancy? Is he/she eligible for a particular treatment? What should be the appropriate timing...
Anatomy of the aortic valvar complex with considerations for optimal TAVI positioning
23 Nov 2021 – From PCR London Valves 2021
In this PCR London Valves 2021 simulation-based learning session, learn the latest in transcatheter aortic valve implantation, gain an understanding of anatomical features, review imaging modalities to plan and perform procedures, and witness hands-on activities, among others.
Transcatheter mitral valve repair and replacement: optimal technique and procedural refinement
23 Nov 2021 – From PCR London Valves 2021
This PCR London Valves 2021 interactive learning session is designed to review the basics but also the more advanced and complex procedural steps of transcatheter mitral edge-to-edge repair, as this procedure requires a rigorous and standardized technique that can take time to learn.
Tricuspid valve disease: guidelines and beyond
23 Nov 2021 – From PCR London Valves 2021
Watch this PCR London Valves 2021 session to hear about the latest European guidelines on the management of tricuspid valve disease, understand the details behind these guidelines and how they compare with those elsewhere in the world, and, most importantly, find out how Heart Teams can translate...
Coronary access following TAVI
23 Nov 2021 – From PCR London Valves 2021
Using the anatomy and imaging section and simulators, our experts dissect the case of a typical TAVI patient, an 81-year-old male, former smoker, with hypertension, dyslipidemia, and gastric ulcer, symptomatic of effort dyspnea, with marked left ventricular hypertrophy and all the parameters of severe aortic stenosis,...
Transcatheter mitral edge-to-edge repair: procedural complications and lifetime management
23 Nov 2021 – From PCR London Valves 2021
This PCR London Valves 2021 session presents different kinds of complications in mitral procedures based on clinical cases: discuss the case of an 82-year-old male patient with symptomatic severe ischemic secondary mitral regurgitation, coronary artery disease, diabetes, and chronic kidney disease, among others!
Transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions: the future
23 Nov 2021 – From PCR London Valves 2021
In this PCR London Valves 2021 session, observe the case of an 84-year-old, not overweight, quite active, female patient with a past history of restrictive cardiomyopathy and permanent atrial fibrillation, who presented with worsening dyspnea and obvious clinical signs of right ventricular heart failure, and discuss the...
Commissural alignment for TAVI
23 Nov 2021 – From PCR London Valves 2021
In this PCR London Valves 2021 session shot in the simulation lab, learn tips and tricks for achieving commissural alignment, review the strategy for improving TAVR outcomes, and discuss how to get the right imaging, the right tools, and the right patients.
Closing Ceremony
23 Nov 2021 – From PCR London Valves 2021
Looking back on some of the key moments of the PCR London Valves 2021, it is clear that we witnessed cutting-edge procedures in all three valves, pushed the guidelines to the limits and beyond, saw the future of valve procedures with a new TAVI device implanted, live-implanted...
