First experience with the new Sorin Crown PRT bioprosthetic aortic valve: early postoperative outcome and hemodynamic performance in 90 patients.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
AIM: The Crown PRT (The Phospholipid Reduction Treatment) is a new stent bovine bioprosthesis for aortic valve replacement (AVR). Aim of this paper is to report the postoperative clinical and hemodynamic results after ninety consecutive implants. METHODS: After receiving CE mark in July 2014, two European university centers implanted the new Crown PRT (Sorin Group, Burnaby, Canada) for the first time. Up to now, ninety patients underwent aortic valve replacement, in isolated or combined procedures, for aortic stenosis or insufficiency. Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiogram was used to assess the prosthesis's function. In hospital outcomes and echocardiographic parameters were recorded. RESULTS: Age and Log Euroscore were 71.8±7.9 years and 10.2%±4.5 respectively. In-hospital mortality for isolated AVR was 0%; one patient died after a multiple procedure (overall 30-days mortality 1.1%). No adverse device effects were recorded. Intensive Care Unit stay was 2±5.8 days. At discharge, echocardiogram showed no paravalvular leaks and normal postoperative gradients. CONCLUSION: Our starting results showed that the Crown PRT is safe and reliable, with excellent hemodynamic performance. Further clinical results with a larger population and long term follow-up are needed to assess the versatility and the durability of this new device.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
