Mobile Health for Central Sleep Apnea Screening Among Patients With Stable Heart Failure: Single-Cohort, Open, Prospective Trial.
Treskes RW, Maan AC, Verwey HF, Schot R, Beeres SLMA, Tops LF, Tops LF, Van Der Velde ET, Schalij MJ, Slats AM
Background: Polysomnography is the gold standard for detection of central sleep apnea in patients with stable heart failure. However, this procedure is costly, time consuming, and a burden to the patient and therefore unsuitable as a screening method. An electronic health (eHealth) app to measure overnight oximetry may be an acceptable screening alternative, as it can be automatically analyzed and is less burdensome to patients. Objective: This study aimed to assess whether overnight pulse oxime...

Echocardiography in Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement.
Vollema EM, Delgado V, Bax JJ
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a safe and efficient alternative for surgical valve aortic replacement in patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis who are inoperable or have a high risk for surgery. Randomised clinical trials have shown that TAVR is not inferior to surgical aortic valve replacement in intermediate-risk patients and ongoing trials will demonstrate the effects of TAVR in asymptomatic severe aortic stenosis patients and in patients with heart failure and mo...

The Medical Profession, Industry, and Continuing Medical Education: Finding the Balance That's Right for Patients.
Kearney P, Simoons M, Ryden L, Kirchhof P, Pries A, O'Morain C, Bax JJ
Provision and participation in formal external continuing medical education (CME) is costly. Employer or state support of CME is the exception rather than the rule. The medical industry has supported both providers and consumers of educational activities, leading to concerns of commercial bias. Recent medical industry initiatives in Europe to improve the transparency of the relationship between industry and the profession, including the field of medical education, have had the paradoxical effect...

Morphologic Types of Tricuspid Regurgitation: Characteristics and Prognostic Implications.
Prihadi EA, Delgado V, Leon MB, Enriquez-Sarano M, Topilsky Y, Bax JJ
Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is classified according to different morphologic types based on the underlying mechanisms: primary, secondary, and isolated TR. Primary TR is caused by an anatomical abnormality of the tricuspid valve apparatus. Secondary TR is caused by dilation of the tricuspid valve annulus, related to right ventricular (RV), or right atrial remodeling and increased RV pressures (often secondary to left-sided heart disease). Isolated TR can exist in patients without increased RV p...

Multimodality imaging in ischaemic heart failure.
Bax JJ, Di Carli M, Narula J, Delgado V
In heart failure, extensive evaluation with modern non-invasive imaging modalities is needed to assess causes, pathophysiology, and haemodynamics, to determine prognosis and consider therapeutic options. This systematic evaluation includes a stepwise assessment of left ventricular size and function, the presence and severity of coronary artery disease, mitral regurgitation, pulmonary hypertension, right ventricular dilation and dysfunction, and tricuspid regurgitation. Based on this imaging-deri...

Frailty score for elderly patients is associated with short-term clinical outcomes in patients with ST-segment elevated myocardial infarction treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention.
Hermans MPJ, Eindhoven DC, van Winden LAM, de Grooth GJ, Blauw GJ, Muller M, Schalij MJ
Objective: Consistent with the aging population in the Western world, there is a growing number of elderly patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the recommended reperfusion strategy in elderly patients; risk models to determine which of these patients are prone to have poor clinical outcomes are, however, essential. The purpose of this study was to assess the association between frailty and short-term mortality and P...
