TAVI (Transcatheter aortic valve implantation)

Find all the latest content on TAVI published on this website.

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.

PCR STATEMENT on evolving indications for transcatheter aortic valve implantation

21 May 2019

Paris, France, 21 May 2019. Severe symptomatic aortic stenosis, a degenerative disease-causing calcification and immobility of the aortic valve leaflets leading to left ventricular outflow obstruction, is the most common valve lesion leading to intervention in Europe and the USA. Symptoms include heart failure, syncope and...

First-in-human experience of a new-generation transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve for the treatment of severe aortic regurgitation: the J-Valve transfemoral system

21 Feb 2019

The J-Valve transcatheter aortic valve consists of the valve and three U-shaped “anchor rings” and is deployed in a two-step process.
