TAVI (Transcatheter aortic valve implantation)

Francesco Costa analyses the results of ADAPT-TAVR, a prospective randomized trial on edoxaban vs dual antiplatelet therapy for valve thrombosis and cerebral thromboembolism after transcatheter aortic-valve replacement.

Live updates on a selection of major Late Breaking Clinical Trials of interest in interventional cardiology presented at the American College of Cardiology 2022 Scientific Sessions #ACC22.

A 70-year-old male patient was referred to hospital with signs of acute myocardial infarction. Echocardiography confirmed impaired left ventricular function and severe low flow, low gradient aortic valve stenosis. Would you go for surgical aortic valve replacement or transfemoral TAVI?

Conduction disturbances remain the most common complications of TAVI and its main drawback compared to surgery. How would you treat this 82-year-old man, height 1.68 m, weight 112 kg, with peripheral artery disease, who presented with severe aortic stenosis and symptoms of NYHA Class 3 breathlessness?

The cusp-overlay method aims to implant the self-expandable device higher than in former ways without device pop-out upon release and it reduces pacemaker rates significantly.

Recently, coronary access has been recognized as an important consideration in the lifetime management of patients with severe aortic stenosis...

An 89-year-old man was referred for treatment of severe symptomatic aortic stenosis. This case describes the decision-making in performing TAVI in a patient with twin challenges of small annulus and significant LVOT calcification.

Thanks to this session, aimed at revealing the exceptional performance of Evolut PRO+, learn key considerations for patients with longer life expectancy and explore the pathway to a single-digit pacemaker post-TAVI.

This session will enable you to discuss the clinical outcomes of TAVI results in patients with small aortic annuli, learn how to best measure and assess gradients when performing TAVI, and review a case of a patient with small annuli treated with TAVI.

Watch this session to discover various challenging cases presented at GulfPCR-GIM 2021: managing high-bleeding risk in ACS, endovascular venoplasty and stenting of subclavian vein in a patient on prolonged haemodialysis, flow arrest and reversal for carotid artery stenting in patients with high-grade bilateral stenosis, as well as TAVI complications...

Watch this series of clinical cases- would you have made the same treatment choices to manage these complications?

- Unusual complication during an angiogram
- When wires give you troube
- Routine PCI complications: a CTO technique to the rescue
- Entrapment and fracture of coronary guidewire
- An unexpected Impella...

Vascular complications dramatically impact patients outcome after TAVI. This technique is a helpful illustration of how to combine suture and plug based closure devices in order to manage access site successfully.

Watch the LIVE case of a 76-year-old female patient with DM and HTN, who had MPI 2 years ago and who presented with severe aortic stenosis, and discuss device selection based on coronary anatomy, cerebral protection device use, and peripheral vascular access management.

In this session, start viewing the case of a 67-year-old female patient with hypertension and severe symptomatic aortic stenosis used to illustrate TAVI in very small aortic annulus, and, then, follow the discussion about smallest annulus treated with TAVI and lifetime management of TAVI patient.
