TAVI (Transcatheter aortic valve implantation)

Latest TAVI content in interventional cardiology - research, practice, and education

TAVI, now an established, valid treatment for patients presenting with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis, has proven to be superior to medical treatment for inoperable patients whilst being a valid alternative to surgery in select, high-risk patients. This topic covers the newest devices and emerging data in TAVI as well as information on tools, devices and techniques such as vascular access; the role of adjunctive pharmacotherapy; imaging techniques such as echocardiography, understanding bleeding risks or patient selection.

Balloon- versus self-expanding valve systems for treating small failed surgical aortic bioprostheses: the LYTEN trial

23 May 2022

Luigi provides us with the interventional cardiologist's point of view!

Currently, TAVR selection process is performed by matching the internal diameter of the surgically implanted bioprostheses to the external diameter of commercially available TAVR devices. Nonetheless, the impact of intrinsic design differences, such as supra vs intra-annular design,...
