Download or read book Advances in Heart Valve Imaging written by Luigi P. Badano and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-07-25 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Valvular heart diseases (VHD) remain one of the leading causes of heart failure and a decrease in life expectancy. Timely diagnosis and management are of utmost importance for this subgroup of patients. Recent advances in cardiac imaging and transcatheter therapeutic approaches have led to the development of the term “Heart Team” and the new sub-specialty of “interventional Echocardiographer”. Through the routine use of advanced echocardiography (strain and 3D imaging) and all other modalities, such as CT and CMR, we have better recognized the mechanisms of valvular abnormalities and we have provided the option to expand the transcatheter therapies. With this Research Topic, we seek to provide an overview of the latest advances in imaging techniques on Valvular Diseases, such as advanced Echocardiographic tools, Cardiac CT and MR, and PET/CT-PET/MR imaging. We also seek to emphasize how these new techniques can support diagnosis and help treat difficult cases that go beyond our routine and cover the up-to-date imaging approach of the “Heart Team”.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cardiovascular disease is the major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. While the past 40 years have brought major progress in cardiac valve repair and replacement, there remain large patient populations that do not receive such therapies. This, in turn, implies a great need for future basic, applied, and clinical research and, ultimately, therapeutic developments. Heart Valves is a state-of-the-art handbook dedicated to: 1) cardiac valve anatomy, 2) models for testing and research methods; 3) clinical trials; and 4) clinical needs and applications.

Download or read book Advances in Complex Valvular Disease written by Michael S. Firstenberg and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2021-01-14 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the diagnostic and therapeutic tools for the management of complex cardiac valve disease continue to evolve, the options for patients who previously had few choices continue to expand. Such advances have resulted in a renaissance in how Heart Teams approach problems and have been able to engage patients in shared decision-making conversations towards a common goal. While opportunities exist in the management of physiologically challenging congenital heart disease, the vast explosion of research and development in the area of aortic valve disease has offered new hope to patients for improving their quality and quantity of life. The goal of this text is to hopefully serve as a foundation for those who want to explore such topics in greater detail.

Book excerpt: Over the past 15 years, mechanical valves, and in particular, bileaflet mechanical valves, have made considerable strides in durability and hemodynamic per- formance. However, biocompatibility in terms of thrombo- embolism, thrombosis, and hemolysis has remained an area where improvement is needed. "New Development in Bileaflet Mechanical Heart Valve" discusses advances in these important areas of prosthetic valve function and provides clinical experience with a new open pivot, bileaflet mechanical valve.

Download or read book Advances in Cardiovascular Engineering written by Ned H.C. Hwang and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-09 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances of cardiovascular engineering prompt one to consider innovative device technology - that is, the development of new replacement heart valves or engineering of a totally implantable energy source for an artificial heart. However, these kinds of advances have often proved unable to achieve a long-lasting benefit as the cardiovascular field has matured so fast. Cardiovascular engineering has matured to the point where a major innovation must not only function, but must continuously function better than existing devices. This is difficult to accomplish in the complex cardiovasculature system, in which energy source, biocompatibility, compliance, and functionality all must be considered. The maturation of the field is evident from the fact that many engineered prosthetic systems perform well - for example, heart valves function for long periods of time, large-vessel vascular grafts are quite adequate, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation has significantly prolonged the feasible length of heart bypass and other surgical operations, and total artificial hearts can be used as a bridge to transplant without serious complications, yet none of these systems is as good as the natural ones it replaces. The reasons for this are many and incompletely understood. The next stage of progress must be better to alterations understandings of the various components of vasculature and their response by our devices, be they at the micro- or macro-circulatory levels, in the blood, or associated with the vascular wall.
Download or read book Recent Progress in Mitral Valve Disease written by Carlos Duran and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent Progress in Mitral Valve Disease presents a comprehensive examination of the proceedings that resulted from the International Symposium that transpired in Paris. It discusses the anatomy and physiology of the mitral valve. It addresses the cyclical motion of the mitral valve leaflets. Some of the topics covered in the book are the cyclical motion of the mitral annulus; analysis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; diagnoses of acute myocardial ischemia; characteristics of an abnormally functioning, structurally abnormal mitral valve; atrial function in normal cardiac cycle; and atrial function in acute mitral regurgitation. The factors that modify regurgitant volume are fully covered. An in-depth account of the methods for animal preparation and dynamics of acute experimental mitral regurgitation are provided. The uses and limitations of echocardiography in the examination of the mitral valve are completely presented. A chapter is devoted to the timing of surgical intervention in chronic mitral regurgitation. Another section focuses on the status of prosthetic valves in the mitral position. The book can provide useful information to doctors, cardiologists, students, and researchers.

Download or read book Pathophysiology Evaluation and Management of Valvular Heart Disease written by Jeffrey S. Borer and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diseased heart valves are a growing public health concern, ranging among the most important causes of heart failure and sudden death. This volume reviews the most current information on valvular disease pathophysiology, epidemiology and evaluation as well as management strategies for affected patients. Topics discussed include data supporting selection of asymptomatic patients for valve surgery, methods employed in evaluating patients for this purpose, surgical methods and valve prostheses currently applied for valve repair and replacement, and criteria for selecting among them. Adjunctive problems such as aortic root disease, infective endocarditis and arrhythmias that may modify patient management are also considered. Epidemiologic data illustrate the increasing prevalence of valvular disease in the population. In addition, the book reviews new and emerging knowledge about the molecular and cellular basis of myocardial dysfunction and heart failure in various forms of valvular disease, and new information about the potential roles of alternative medicine, blood conservation and minimally invasive surgical techniques. A particular highlight is a 'debate' between paired chapters on the appropriateness of mitral valve surgery for patients with less than severe mitral regurgitation of ischemic etiology. Compiling the most up-to-date and authoritative information in the field, this book will be of great value not only to cardiologists and cardiac surgeons, but also to medical students, medical and surgical residents, cardiology and cardiac surgery fellows and general internists.
