Aortic stenosis is the most common valvular disease requiring valve replacement. Valve
replacement therapies have undergone progressive evolution since the 1960s. Over the last …

Introduction In transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), assessment of aortic valve
calcification is not as standardized as aortic annulus measurement. Aortic valve calcification …

Background The treatment of aortic stenosis is evolving rapidly. Pace of change in the care
of patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and surgical aortic …

Background Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has transformed the
management of aortic valve stenosis. However, little national data are available …

Objectives The objective of the present study, which was conducted in patients undergoing
transcatheter aortic valve replacement, was to compare continuous noninvasive arterial …

OBJECTIVES The concept of non-inferiority is widely adopted in randomized trials

This paper describes the history of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) from its
preclinical phase during which visionary pioneers developed its concept and prototype …

Background Aortic stenosis is the most common valvular disease, and its prevalence is
increasing due to the ageing population. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is …

Background Endothelial healing after deployment of cardiovascular devices is particularly
important in the context of clinical outcome. It is therefore of great interest to develop tools for …

Recent trials have shown impressive results in low-risk patients undergoing Transcatheter
Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) with low procedural complication rates, short hospital …
