P Value
Values are number (%), mean ± SD, and median (25th-75th percentile) for non-normally distributed variables.
«NYHA class symptoms at 30-day follow-up, which occurred between 21 days and 3 months following hospital discharge.
†Grading scheme as in Table 1.
‡Non-normally distributed variable.
LVEF1-day = LVEF on postoperative day 1; LVEF30-day = LVEF determined between 5 days and 3 months post-TAVR; PVL = paravalvular leak on postoperative day 1; other abbreviations as in Table 2.
sign. The PAS and FD20 cameras are all equipped with a pulsed fluoroscopy mode, which generally ranges from 1 to 30 fps, though the FD20 is capable of 60 fps. The contemporary PAS systems (Cios Alpha and RFD) offer fluoroscopic mA ranges similar to that of
the FD20, and have housing heat storage capacities of 5.3 MHU and 10 MHU, respectively, which are sim- ilar to the FD20 capacity of 5.4 MHU. The compara- ble heat capacity of PAS cameras in conjunction with their liquid cooling technology reduce the risk of sys-
