RESUMO

Paravalvular leaks (PVL) following mitral valve replacement occur in 7% to 17% of cases, with 1% to 5% being clinically significant. Although surgical repair is often recommended, transcatheter PVL closures have shown positive outcomes with fewer complications. This case report discusses a patient with a severe paravalvular leak after aortic and mitral valve replacement treated via a transapical approach, evaluating outcomes and potential complications.

RESUMO

Background: Limited data exist regarding the status of long-term cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcomes of hospitalized COVID-19 patients. We aimed to examine the efficacy of early statin use after SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia and the impact of prior CVD on the incidence of cardiovascular events. Methods: A prospective cohort study was performed on hospitalized COVID-19 patients. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) as a composite of cardiovascular mortality, stroke, heart failure, venous thromboembolism (VTE), revascularization, and nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI). The secondary endpoints comprised MACE components, all-cause mortality, readmission for COVID-19, and impaired functional classes. Results: The mean age of the 858 participants was 55.52±13.97 years, and the median follow-up time was 13 months (11.5-15). Men comprised 63.9% of the patients. Overall, MACE occurred in 84 subjects (9.8%), and 98 patients (11.4%) received ventilation. A multivariate Cox regression model was employed to explore the association between statin use and outcomes, and the following hazard ratios were obtained: MACE (0.831 [0.529 to 0.981]; P=0.044), All-cause mortality (1.098 [0.935 to 1.294]; P=0.255), stroke (0.118 [0.029 to 0.48]; P=0.003), revascularization (0.103 [0.029 to 0.367]; P<0.0001), poor functional capacity (0.827 [0.673 to 1.018]; P=0.073), nonfatal MI (0.599 [0.257 to 1.394]; P=0.234), VTE (0.376 [0.119 to 1.190]; P=0.096), and decompensated heart failure (0.137 [0.040 to 0.472]; P=0.002). Prior CVD predicted MACE (2.953 [1.393 to 6.271]; P=0.005), all-cause death (1.170 [0.960 to 1.412]; P=0.102), and VTE (2.770 [0.957 to 8.955]; P=0.051). Conclusion: Previous CVD is a robust predictor of long-term MACE and VTE. Early statin use might decrease the incidence rates of MACE, ischemic stroke, revascularization, and readmission for heart failure.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Baseline biomarkers including glomerular filtration rate (GFR) guide the management of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). GFR is a tool for prediction of adverse outcomes in these patients. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to determine the prognostic utility of estimated GFR using Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration in a cohort of STEMI patients. METHODS: A retrospective cohort was designed among 5953 patients with STEMI. Primary endpoint of the study was major adverse cardiovascular events. GFR was classified into 3 categories delineated as C1 (<60 mL/min), C2 (60-90), and C3 (≥ 90). RESULTS: Mean age of the patients was 60.38 ± 5.54 years and men constituted 78.8% of the study participants. After a median of 22 months, Multivariate Cox-regression demonstrated that hazards of major averse cardiovascular event, all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, and nonfatal myocardial infarction were significantly lower for subjects in C3 as compared with those in C1. Corresponding hazard ratios (HRs) for mentioned outcomes regarding C3 versus C1 were (95% confidence interval) were (HR = 0.852 [0.656-0.975]; P = 0.035), (HR = 0.425 [0.250-0.725]; P = 0.002), (HR = 0.425 [0.242-0.749]; P = 0.003), and (0.885 [0.742-0.949]; P = 0.003), respectively. Normal GFR was also associated with declined in-hospital mortality with HR of C3 versus C1: 0.299 (0.178-0.504; P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: Baseline GFR via Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration is associated with long-term cardiovascular outcomes following STEMI.
