Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) represents an effective treatment to improve symptoms and prognosis in patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis (AS) (1-2). Giving an established uniform approach towards anticoagulation and antithrombotic therapy after TAVR in the post POPULAR-TAVI era, recent data coming from the analysis of different trials, highlight …
ONASSIST is a registry of coronary ill patients who have had a functional test measuring anti-platelet effect and/or a genetic profile of response to anti-platelet drugs.
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is one of the leading causes of mortality in the industrialized world. Bystander CPR before arrival of the Emergency Medical Service (EMS) is associated with an increased chance of survival. During the last decade, the best form of bystander CPR has been debated. Chest Compression Only …
The goal of this platform trial is to determine the efficacy, safety and cost-effectiveness of various interventions in patients with acute cardiorespiratory failure requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) The main question the platform trial aims to address is to determine the effect of a range of interventions on survival, organ …
This study is a multicenter, retrospective registry study using the CHATEAU Registry. The study will evaluate patients who underwent transcatheter aortic valve replacement between January 2021 and December 2025. The purpose of the study is to assess clinical outcomes and valve performance after TAVR in real-world practice, with a focus …
Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common valvular heart disease among elderly population, with a increasing prevalence due to population ageing. In developed countries, the prevalence of severe AS among ≥75 years is approximately 3.4%. The onset of symptoms is associated with a poor prognosis. Indeed, mortality increases once symptoms …
The general objective of this study is to evaluate the clinical impact and safety of focused, point-of-care transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) used during the evaluation of critically-ill patients in the emergency and intensive care settings. The target population for this study are critically-ill patients over the age of 18 who as …
Despite the year-on-year decrease, coronary artery disease (CAD) still remains one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide. With advances in technology and our understanding of cardiac disease, we can now treat CAD using minimally invasive interventional techniques. This has revolutionised treatment for and improved the lives of many patients …
Patients admitted with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are at increased risk of malignant cardiac arrhythmias (MA), such as sustained ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation. Therefore, patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) are continuously monitored for a minimum of 24 hours after onset symptoms. Longer monitoring is advised in patients …
Cardiac arrhythmias frequently occur in patients admitted to the Coronary Care Unit (CCU). The majority of these patients are treated for an acute myocardial infarction, which carries an increased risk of life-threatening arrhythmias such as ventricular tachycardia (VT) or ventricular fibrillation (VF). This risk is one of the reasons these …
