peer agreement (net): +3water test Explanation: - Wasserprobe = operative water test - Prüfung der Klappenfunktion = testing of the valve function Operatives Techniques Aortic Valve Repair Using Geometric Ring Annuloplasty Unlike mitral repair, where an operative water test accurately estimates leaflet competence, the exact geometry of reconstructed aortic valve leaflets can be fully ascertained only after aortic unclamping and root pressurization. In up to 10% of cases, particularly those with more complex leaflet reconstruction, reclamping may be required after review of the transesophageal echocardiogram to perform minor repair adjustments following the principles outlined above. However, the incidence of reclamping tends to fall with increasing surgeon experience. https://www.optechtcs.com/article/S1522-2942(20)30078-7/full... |
