The PROTECTED TAVR study: Cerebral embolic protection during transcatheter aortic valve replacement

18 Sep 2022

Jonathan Curio provides his take on the PROTECTED TAVR study which was presented by Samir R. Kapadia at TCT 2022. The aim was to evaluate whether TAVR with cerebral embolic protection would reduce the rate of clinical stroke in transfemoral TAVR.
