Pacemaker Requirement Index after TAVR Calculator

Pacemaker Requirement Index after TAVR: Explanation and Clinical Context This calculator estimates the probability of requiring a permanent pacemaker (PPM) within about 60 days after Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR). Key independent predictors include pre-existing right bundle branch block (RBBB), a larger pre-procedural aortic valve area (AVA), and a higher ratio of post- to pre-procedural AVA, reflecti

Paravalvular Leak (PVL) Severity Score Calculator

Paravalvular Leak (PVL) Severity Score: Rationale, Calculations, and Clinical Use This tool consolidates validated catheter-based hemodynamic indices to grade PVL severity immediately after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). The core metric is the Aortic Regurgitation Index (ARI), defined as ((DBP − LVEDP) / SBP) × 100. Lower values imply greater diastolic run-off into the LV and more severe PVL. In the s

PARTNER Risk Model (TAVR) Calculator

PARTNER Risk Model (TAVR substudies): Explanation and Clinical Context The PARTNER Risk Model is a validated tool to estimate 30-day mortality risk after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in high-risk or inoperable patients. It uses clinical variables available pre-procedure, including age, serum creatinine, NYHA functional class III/IV, body mass index (BMI), and serum albumin. The model calculates the p

Postoperative AKI Cardiac Surgery (AKICS) Calculator

Postoperative AKI after Cardiac Surgery (AKICS): Explanation and Clinical Context The AKICS score is a bedside tool derived and prospectively validated to predict acute kidney injury (AKI) after elective cardiac surgery. It integrates preoperative, intraoperative, and early postoperative information available at ICU admission: combined surgery (e.g., CABG plus valve), NYHA class ≥ 2, pre-operative serum creatinine >

Pulmonary Valve Annulus (PVA) Z-score Calculator

Pulmonary Valve Annulus (PVA) Z-score — explanation and clinical context This calculator implements the regression equations published by Pettersen et al. (J Am Soc Echocardiogr 2008) to compute a z-score for the pulmonary valve annulus relative to body size. Pettersen and colleagues derived nonlinear polynomial regression models on the natural-log transformed echocardiographic measurements against body surface area
