Management of aortic stenosis: what really matters before and after the procedure

11 Sep 2025 – From PCR Rio Valves 2025

Aortic stenosis management is a lifetime strategy, not a one-time procedure. This session covers key decision-making factors, compares surgical and transcatheter options, and provides guidance on post-procedural care. Learn to individualise treatment based on age, anatomy, and risk, and plan interventions with the patient’s long-term trajectory...
