In patients with severe symptomatic tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and large tricuspid annuli, transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR) with the LuX-Valve Plus was associated with high procedural and 30-day clinical success, significant TR reduction, and early functional improvement.
Results from the European TRINITY cohort.

After TAVI, invasively measured transvalvular gradients—but not echocardiography-derived gradients— were associated with mortality up to 2 years. Echocardiography systematically overestimated gradients, particularly with balloon-expandable valves. Read more in our #EIJBestOf 👇

A new echocardiographic algorithm provides accurate classification of left ventricular filling pressure, reducing indeterminate cases, particularly in patients with preserved ejection fraction. @SNagueh ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.…

This comprehensive review by Goel et al. explores the principles, procedural details, and outcomes of techniques including BASILICA, ShortCut, UNICORN, and newer methods like CATHEDRAL and Splitter. Each approach is discussed in the context of anatomical challenges, device innovation, and operator experience. @GilbertTangMD

In another study published in #JACCINT, the timing of noncardiac surgery after #TAVR was not associated with increased perioperative risk, suggesting that surgical delays based solely on interval from TAVR may be unnecessary. jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jcin.… #vhdAS #cvSurg
When feasible, delaying noncardiac surgery, particularly beyond 100 days, appears to be associated with a reduction in adverse events, suggesting a potential opportunity for optimization of patient outcomes 💡 jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jacad…

#ClotWarriors rejoice! Hey it works for us! Mechanical #thrombectomy better than🩸thinning alone for intermediate risk #PulmonaryEmbolism in our cohort🇸🇬!

In this paper, @LeivaOrly, @SripalBangalore et al. reported that early catheter-based therapy (≤1 day) in intermediate-/high-risk PE significantly reduces 90-day mortality, readmissions, bleeding, and length of stay vs delayed therapy. lnkd.in/dxQwZ7d9 #PE #CBT #CDT #InterventionalCardiology

Trans-national tutorial over the South China Sea. Dr @YinghaoLim from NUHCS, Singapore gave an amazing tutorials on cardiac hemodynamics to Dr in Sarawak, Serdang and the Philippines! Teaching without boundaries!
Thanks Dr Joshua for organizing.
