During the past decade, transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has revolutionised the interventional treatment of aortic stenosis (AS).1 It has rapidly evolved from a treatment used on a compassionate basis for inoperable patients to being the standard of care in high-risk AS.2,3 In that cohort it has proven to be non-inferior to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) in terms of… View more

Filmed at EuroPCR 2022, Prof Stephan Baldus (University of Köln Medical Center, DE) outlines the first results from a study investigating the use of the JenaValve TAVR device in treating patients with aortic regurgitation. Discussion Points: 1. Prevalence and burden of aortic regurgitation 2. Treatment options 3. Importance of the technology 4. Considerations and further research Recorded at… View more

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with either the balloonexpandable Edwards SAPIEN XT valve (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, California), or the self-expandable CoreValve prosthesis (Medtronic, Minneapolis, Minnesota) has become the established therapeutic modality for severe aortic valve stenosis in patients who are not deemed suitable for surgical intervention due to excessively high… View more

Since the first ‘proof-of-concept’ case of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) was reported by Cribier and colleagues in 2002, more than 200,000 patients have undergone the procedure in approximately 65 countries.1,2 Since its inception, the majority of patients undergoing TAVI have been considered inoperable or high risk for conventional surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) as… View more

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has undergone tremendous technological advancements since the first successful implantation in 2002 for symptomatic severe aortic valve stenosis (AS).1 It is currently considered as the standard of care for severe AS patients who have high surgical risk or may be deemed unsuitable for surgery.2 Broadly, there are two main categories of transcatheter… View more

The main advantages of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) over conventional aortic valve replacement (cAVR) surgery are the avoidance of sternotomy, heart lung bypass and prolonged procedure times. These advantages facilitate early mobilisation and discharge – important both clinically and in terms of resource utilisation. Balanced against this, TAVI is less predictable than cAVR –… View more
