Summary
This session explores long-term aspects of TAVI, focusing on patient life expectancy and valve durability. It provides guidance on optimizing initial TAVI procedures for patients with extended life spans and offers insights into planning and performing redo TAVI. Topics include assessing life expectancy, evaluating TAVI valve durability, CT planning for both index and redo TAVI, and strategies for successful redo procedures.
Learning Objectives
- To understand life-expectancy and valve durability in patients undergoing TAVI
- To understand how to optimise the index TAVI procedure in patients with long life-expectancy
- To learn how to plan and execute Redo TAVI procedures
