SAVR’s Value in the TAVR Era

CardiacWire

Procedure trends certainly suggest that we’ve entered the TAVR era, but a pair of new studies show that surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) is a far better option for many younger and healthier patients who are increasingly seen as TAVR candidates. The post SAVR’s Value in the TAVR Era appeared first on Cardiac Wire.

TAVR Found Non-Inferior to SAVR for Low-Risk Patients

DAIC

TAVR and SAVR are procedures to replace a damaged aortic valve that is not functioning properly. TAVR and SAVR are procedures to replace a damaged aortic valve that is not functioning properly. The DEDICATE-DZHK6 trial compared TAVR vs. SAVR in 1,414 patients who underwent valve replacement procedures at 38 centers in Germany.

Edwards Acquires JenaValve and Endotronix, Expands into Aortic Regurgitation and Heart Failure

CardiacWire

These two acquisitions could impact Edwards’ structural heart and heart failure portfolios in unique and meaningful ways… JenaValve’s Trilogy TAVR system doesn’t yet have FDA approval, but is CE Marked for both aortic regurgitation and aortic stenosis, which is notable given that all other TAVR systems only address aortic stenosis.

Artificial intelligence-enabled phenotyping of patients with severe aortic stenosis: on the recovery of extra-aortic valve cardiac damage after transcatheter aortic valve replacement

Open Heart

Objective A novel artificial intelligence-based phenotyping approach to stratify patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) prior to transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has been proposed, based on echocardiographic and haemodynamic data. after TAVR, were available from 247 patients (67.5%). ±15.8 ±15.1
