SAVR’s Value in the TAVR Era

CardiacWire

The researchers analyzed 200k nationwide adults who underwent SAVR between 2011 and 2022, finding that… Annual SAVR volumes decreased by 45% (19,560 to 10,851). Much of these SAVR declines occurred in patients with tricuspid aortic valves (from 84.5% The proportion of SAVR patients increased in the <65yr patient group (26.2%
