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.

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.
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has become a leading treatment for aortic stenosis, but managing thromboembolic and bleeding risks post-procedure remains challenging. This review examines current evidence on antithrombotic therapy after TAVR.
Patients with severe aortic stenosis who were treated with either TAVR or surgery had comparable rates of all-cause mortality or disabling stroke at five years, according to research presented during a Late-Breaking Clinical Trial session at ACC.25 25 in Chicago and simultaneously published in JACC.
TAVR was associated with similar and stable valve hemodynamics and improved hemodynamic burden on both left and right ventricular function at five years compared with SAVR in low-risk patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS), according to a new echocardiographic analysis from PARTNER 3 published April 16.
