National Heart Valve Disease Awareness Day
As part of American Heart Month, and in recognition of National Heart Valve Disease Awareness Day on Feb. 22, the ACC Interventional Leadership Council has recorded a series of videos focused on valvular heart disease, including case presentations and highlights from the latest American College of Cardiology and American Heart Association valve disease guidelines. See the entire series on the Invasive CV Angiography and Intervention Clinical Topic Collection. For patient resources, check out CardioSmart's Heart Valve Disease Hub and "Heart Valve Disease Treatment with TAVR" infographic.

Benjamin Galper, MD, MPH, FACC, Director of Structural Heart Disease Program Mid-Atlantic Permanente Medical Group (MAPMG), Assistant Chief of Cardiology at MAPMG Northern Virginia service area, Medical Director of Structural Heart Disease Program at Virginia Hospital Center, shares two cases detailing the intraprocedural steps of a LAMPOON procedure for a transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) procedure at a high risk of left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction and a rescue procedure of a pop out transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) valve.
