Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has emerged to be a viable treatment option for patients suffering from Severe Aortic Stenosis.
The transfemoral approach is the most common access route for TAVI and associated with most favourable clinical outcomes.
However, with a population with increasingly complex vasculature, the incidence of vascular complications in TAVI remains high…

In this video interview, Dr Firas Zahr (OHSU Hospital, Portland, OR, US) outlines the 30-day outcomes of the Intrepid TMVR Early Feasibility Study, originally presented at TCT 2021. This was a prospective multicenter trial, designed to study the feasibility of the Intrepid TMVR System. At 30 days, findings show favourable haemodynamics and an improved NYHA class in patients with mitral…

Radial vs Femoral Access
In recent years several large registries and randomised controlled trials have demonstrated a mortality benefit for trans-radial over trans-femoral percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), likely mediated by reduced bleeding complications.1–4 Building on the pioneering Japanese experience, the advent of the hybrid algorithim approach, coupled with innovative new…

Minimally invasive procedures such as endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR), transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and implantation of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) are gaining ground on traditional surgery.1–3 These procedures require large-bore access, which is inherently associated with vascular complications and bleeding. Despite the reduction in size of these devices (Table 1),…

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is evolving rapidly with an exponential growth in the number of procedures in worldwide.1,2 As worldwide experience with this modality increases, more and more patients are being offered this alternative to open surgery for the treatment of severe, symptomatic aortic stenosis (AS). Although this technique has reached relative maturity, further…

Catheter-based vascular interventions continue to evolve as new devices continue to expand the capabilities of interventionalists and improve patient safety. The importance of athero-embolisation during vascular intervention has long been recognised.1 Embolic protection devices (EPDs) were developed to help prevent embolisation during endovascular procedures. The risk of distal embolisation is…

Manual compression has been the gold standard for obtaining haemostasis at the femoral artery access site since being introduced in conjunction with the Seldinger technique in the 1950s.1 However, the limitations of manual compression, including patient discomfort, delayed haemostasis and ambulation and bleeding at the access site despite satisfactory initial haemostasis, have spurred the…
