Brain-Protected TAVR Results in Fewer Real-World Disabling Strokes

Med Page Today

(MedPage Today) -- NEW YORK CITY -- Researchers eked out evidence of a small clinical benefit with the Sentinel cerebral embolic protection (CEP) device in transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) -- and pointed to the patients more likely.

PROTECTED TAVR: Post Hoc Analysis Suggests Possible Benefits of CEP During TAVR Based on Geographic Region

American College of Cardiology

While the main PROTECTED TAVR trial found no significant differences in stroke rates when cerebral embolic protection (CEP) was used during TAVR compared with TAVR alone, a post hoc analysis of the trial presented during TCT 2024 and simultaneously published in JAMA Cardiology, suggests there may be potential benefits associated with CEP use based (..)

Stroke PROTECTion With SEntinel During Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

American College of Cardiology

The goal of the PROTECTED TAVR trial was to evaluate the efficacy of intraprocedural cerebral embolic protection (CEP) in reducing strokes among patients undergoing transfemoral TAVR for aortic stenosis.

Modified percutaneous coronary intervention-derived risk models (PARIS and CREDO-Kyoto integer scoring systems) applied to Japanese transcatheter aortic valve replacement patients

Open Heart

Objective Postprocedural ischaemic and bleeding risks after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) remain a major concern. We aimed to assess the accuracy of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)-derived models and the performance of a recalibrated model that included variables more applicable to TAVR.

Impact of leaflet thrombosis on valve haemodynamic status after transcatheter aortic valve replacement

Heart BMJ

We determined the impact of HALT on valve haemodynamics after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and the predictors of haemodynamic structural valve deterioration (SVD). The presence of HALT was evaluated by four-dimensional CT at 6 months and serial echocardiography performed at baseline, immediately post-TAVR and after 6 months.
