TAVR System Shows Durable Clinical Outcomes, Strong Valve Performance in Low-Risk Aortic Stenosis Patients

DAIC

tim.hodson Mon, 03/31/2025 - 15:39 March 30, 2025 Medtronic has announced late-breaking data on five-year outcomes from the Evolut Low Risk Trial. The Evolut Low Risk Trial was a randomized, multicenter, international study assessing the safety and efficacy of the Evolut TAVR system versus surgery in low-risk patients. Grubb, M.D.,

Valvular and perivalvular thrombus after TAVR: Risks and Outcomes

Cardiology Update

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is the standard treatment for severe aortic stenosis, but post-TAVR leaflet thrombus, identified by hypoattenuated leaflet thickening (HALT), poses potential risks like cerebral thromboembolic events. Perivalvular thrombus has also been reported. Specifically, 14.2%

Predictors of permanent pacemaker requirement in aortic stenosis patients undergoing self-expanding valve transcatheter aortic valve replacement using the cusp overlap technique

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

IntroductionSince TAVR was approved for lower-risk aortic stenosis (AS) patients, managing post-implantation conduction disturbances has become crucial, especially with self-expanding heart valves (SEV).

What Are the Implications of Choosing a TAVR-First Strategy in the Lifetime Management of Aortic Stenosis?: A Critical Review of TAVR-Explant- and Redo-TAVR

Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions

Some patients with aortic stenosis may require multiple valve interventions in their lifetime, and choosing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) as the initial intervention may be appealing to many. If their transcatheter heart valve degenerates later in life, most will hope to undergo redo-TAVR.
