TCT-43 First-in-human experience of a novel transradial device for embolic deflection during transcatheter aortic valve replacement

The average stroke rate in contemporary transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) studies is 4.4%. The majority of the TAVR studies are non-randomized registries, hence, neurological outcomes may be underreported. Over 50% of all TAVR related strokes occur during the procedure or on the same day

International, multicenter evaluation of a new D-dimer assay for the exclusion of venous thromboembolism using standard and age-adjusted cut-offs.

We sought to determine the test characteristics of an automated INNOVANCE D-dimer assay for the exclusion of pulmonary embolism (PE) and deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in emergency department (ED) patients using standard and age-adjusted cut-offs.Cross-sectional, international, multicenter study of consecutive patients with suspected DVT or PE in 24 centers (18 USA, 6 Europe). Evaluated patients had low or intermediate Wells PE or DVT scores. For the standard cut-off, a D-dimer result500 ng/ml was negative. For the age adjusted cut-off, we used the formula: Age (years) ∗ 10. The diagnostic standard was imaging demonstrating PE or DVT within 3 months. We calculated test characteristics using s…
