Mind the gap! - What's missing in the field of transcatheter aortic valve interventions
Facilitator:
T. Kaneko
Summary
This session aims to uncover the hidden gaps in the field of transcatheter aortic valve interventions (TAVI). Explore strategies for optimizing hemodynamics, durability, flow, and frame expansion post-TAVI. Review current knowledge and emerging approaches to improve hemodynamic performance, device durability, and flow dynamics after TAVI. Discuss the implications of frame expansion on procedural outcomes and long-term valve function, identifying areas for further advancement in this rapidly evolving field.
