5EU Surgical Cardiovascular and Peripheral Vascular Procedures Volumes to 2021

By -
This report presents procedure volumes forecasts for some of the most common cardiovascular and peripheral vascular surgical procedures performed in the five EU countries of France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the UK (5EU). The forecast period covered by this report is for the years 2016 through 2021.
This report also presents an overview of the etiology and epidemiology of selected cardiovascular and peripheral vascular diseases/disorders, prevailing surgical approaches/techniques, and evolving procedural utilization trends.
Cardiovascular surgical procedures discussed include cardiac resynchronization therapy, congenital heart defect repair, coronary artery bypass graft surgery, implantation of implantable cardioverter defibrillators, pacemakers, and ventricular-assist devices, heart valve repair/replacement, percutaneous coronary intervention with or without stenting, thrombectomy/thrombolysis, and transmyocardial revascularization.
Peripheral vascular interventional/surgical procedures covered include femoropopliteal bypass and stenting, percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, and stent grafting.

Heart risk calculator due for an update

Over 11 million Americans are at high risk of having a heart attack or  stroke  in the next 10 years — at least, that’s what the numbers say. The equation doctors use to estimate  cardiovascular  risk is prone to miscalculation, according to a new study, meaning patients may be popping daily aspirin or statins at the wrong dosage. The stakes are higher for African-Americans. With the old equation, 1 in 29 African-Americans may be incorrectly labeled very low or very high risk, according to the study. For example, a 46-year-old black man was estimated to have a 40 percent lower chance of having a heart attack or stroke than a white man of the same age and in identical health. In general, African-Americans are at higher risk of cardiovascular conditions than Caucasians, so miscalculations shouldn’t be taken lightly. The heart risk calculator transforms patient information — age, gender, race,  cholesterol  levels, blood pressure, prescriptions, and whether they are diabetic or a

How to Mend a Broken Heart

A newborn’s heart is about the size of its fist, the valves inside minuscule. This presents an issue for surgeons trying to help infants born with heart defects. Traditional mechanical replacement valves are larger than a newborn’s, so they may compress the coronary artery or trigger problems in the heart’s electrical system. And surgical repair is tricky because many infants have too little valve tissue to stitch together. “No matter what we try, it just doesn’t work,” says Carl Backer (pictured at top), head of cardiovascular surgery at the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago. Now there’s a more viable option: In March, the Food and Drug Administration approved the world’s smallest mechanical heart valve. Backer, who took the 15-millimeter device manufactured by Abbott Laboratories through clinical trials, first implanted one of the dime-size valves in 2011 under a “compassionate use” exemption, which allows doctors access to devices still in the process of ear
