Aortic Valve InsufficiencyAortic Aneurysm

The primary objective of the CAVIAAR study is to prove that aortic valve sparing for patients with aortic root aneurysms and/or dystrophic aortic insufficiency is associated with a 45% increase of 3 years-survival rate without increased mortality or serious increased morbidity events when compared to mechanical valve replacement. The main hypothesis of this study is that a standardized procedure of valve sparing based on external aortic annuloplasty in patients with dystrophic aortic insufficiency and/or aortic root aneurysm increases survival rate without increased mortality or serious increased morbidity events when compared with patients undergoing mechanical aortic valve replacement.

Proximal Aortopathy in Scotland - Epidemiology and Surgical Outcomes

Aortic DiseasesAortic Dissection8 more

The aorta is the principal arterial vessel arising from the left heart that transfers blood to the body. Certain genetic and familial disease processes are known to weaken the aortic wall resulting in dilation and potential rupture. These aortic complications carry high mortality (>25%) and current management is orientated towards early detection and preventive treatment. Aortic dilation can also result in aortic valve dysfunction leading to heart failure. The estimated UK incidence of aortic disease per year is around 10 per 100,000 individuals, with 2000 people per year dying from aortic complications. The 2017-2020 National Adult Cardiac Surgery Audit report identified the number of people receiving surgery for aortic dissection in Scotland is per population proportionately lower compared to England (4.6 per million per year in Scotland vs. 6.6 per million per year in England). The reasons for this are unclear but may relate to the prevalence of aortic disease or a large geographic distribution with compromised access to specialized centres. Currently surgery is recommended when the aortic diameter exceeds a certain threshold. There are several types of effective surgical procedures, but there is still limited information on their long-term outcomes and the advantage of one procedure over another. The aims of the project are firstly to determine the clinical outcomes of the surgical procedures that are currently employed in Scotland to treat proximal aortic disease and secondly to describe the prevalence and distribution of proximal aortic disease within the Scottish population. The project will be hosted by the Golden Jubilee Research Institute. Contemporary and retrospective data will be collected from all the Scottish Cardiothoracic Surgery units which are based in Glasgow, Edinburgh and Aberdeen. This will be the first study to analyse surgical outcomes for ascending aortic disease in Scotland, and the first to describe the epidemiology of aortic disease within the population. It is anticipated that the results will guide current surgical practise, and provide data to inform national service provision for the management of proximal aortic disease.

Diastolic Dysfunction in Aortic Regurgitation

Aortic Regurgitation

Follow-up study in patients with severe aortic regurgitation after successful valve replacement. Systolic and diastolic function were assessed and persistent diastolic dysfunction was observed late (7-10 years) after operation.

Aortic Valve Regurgitation Acquired After Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation: an Outstanding...

Aortic Valve Regurgitation Acquired

To investigate histological structure and molecular changes involved on the onset of AVD after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation and to compare them with those of patients operated on for severe aortic regurgitation. Methods: Bridge-to-transplant patients with AVD post-LVAD implantation are included. Patients operated on for severe aortic regurgitation are included as control. Clinical and TTE data are compiled. Samples of aortic valve are collected at the time of the intervention. RNA-sequencing analysis is performed in LVAD patients and variations of gene expression are validated by real time qPCR in both. Blood sampling are performed pre-operatively and at one-month follow up to assess the plasma level of previously identified gene modulators. In-vitro studies exposing VICs and VECs to several mechanical stimuli are performed for validation. Conclusion(s) Taking together, the in-vivo and in-vitro models would provide important information for the understanding of valve remodeling and disease. ECM gene modulators could represent pertinent molecular targets to stop the progression of AVD
