Sapien 3 Delivery System Recall; TAVR Short Outs; CTO Learning Curve

The Sapien Ultra delivery -- which deploys Sapien and Sapien Ultra -- is under Class recall due to reports burst balloons during implantation One person has as a result, poorer function, mean Sapien 3 Delivery pre-procedural valve transapical access, and the marker method is most.

Valve regurgitation is a structural heart disease. Regurgitation is the name for leaking heart valves. It happens when a heart’s valve does not close tightly. In patients with valve regurgitation, blood cannot move properly in the rest of the body. Valve regurgitation can be caused by problems with the heart valve such as damaged tissue cords, rheumatic fever, abnormality of the heart muscle, congenital heart defects, radiation therapy, and atrial fibrillation. Some aortic valve endocarditis common symptoms associated with valve regurgitation are abnormal heart sound, fatigue, swollen feet or ankles, and shortness of breath (dyspnea). Major complications associated with valve regurgitation are atrial fibrillation, heart failure, and pulmonary hypertension. Several factors can increase the risk of valve regurgitation, including a history of mitral valve prolapse or mitral valve stenosis, heart attacks, and infections such as endocarditis or rheumatic fever. Doctors can diagnose valve regurgitation based on medical history and tests.
