Case Report: A case of transcatheter aortic valve replacement in a patient with a small aortic annulus using the Acurate Neo2

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

In recent years, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as a popular alternative to the traditional surgical aortic valve replacement. These risks, combined with advanced age, significant co-morbidities, and a severely calcified small aortic annulus, supported the choice of TAVR with a self-expanding Acurate Neo2 valve.

Comparison of transcatheter and surgical aortic valve replacement long-term outcomes: a retrospective cohort study with overlap propensity score weighting

Open Heart

Background and aims Randomised controlled trials comparing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) were performed in highly selected populations and data regarding long-term secondary complications beyond mortality are scarce. Results The study included 9355 SAVR and 2641 TAVR patients.

Non-dual antiplatelet therapy versus dual antiplatelet therapy prior to transcatheter aortic valve replacement: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology

Abstract: Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is an interventional procedure performed in patients with severe aortic stenosis and often required perioperative antiplatelet therapy. Most previous studies have focused on antiplatelet therapy following TAVR. Copyright © 2023 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.

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.

Association Between Polyvascular Disease and Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement Outcomes: Insights from the STS/ACC TVT Registry

Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions

Background:Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is highly prevalent in patients with severe aortic stenosis undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Exposure of interest was PVD. Primary outcome was all-cause mortality.

Rationale and Design of the CREATE Trial: A Multicenter, Randomized Comparison of Continuation or Cessation of Single Antithrombotic Therapy at 1 Year After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

Journal of the American Heart Association

The primary safety end point is a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, and ischemic stroke at 1 year. The primary efficacy end point is the incidence of bleeding events, defined by the VARC3 (Valve Academic Research Consortium3) criteria, at 1year postrandomization.
