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.

New Late-breaking Data from Medtronic Evolut Low Risk Trial Demonstrate Strong Clinical and Cost-effectiveness Benefits of TAVR Platform

DAIC

A cost-effectiveness analysis demonstrates the positive economic value of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) using Evolut TAVR compared to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for low-risk patients. The findings showed a strong economic benefit of Evolut TAVR for low-risk patients from a U.S.

Impact of aortic valve replacement in symptomatic low-risk patients with less than severe aortic stenosis

Open Heart

Objective To evaluate whether transcatheter or surgical aortic valve replacement (TAVR or SAVR) affects clinical and haemodynamic outcomes in symptomatic patients with moderately-severe aortic stenosis (AS). Valve haemodynamics improved following TAVR (AVA 2.5±0.7 <aortic valve area (AVA)<1.5 cm 2 , 3.0<peak
