Role of Echocardiography Before Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI).
Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common primary valve disorder in the elderly with an increasing prevalence; transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become an accepted alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR) in the high risk or inoperable patient. Appropriate selection of patients for TAVI is crucial and requires a multidisciplinary approach including cardiothoracic su...
متن کاملTranscatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in patients with aortic regurgitation.
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become the standard of care for elderly high-risk patients presenting severe and symptomatic aortic valve stenosis, while surgical aortic valve replacement (sAVR) is still considered as the treatment of choice for younger patients and patients with low and intermediate risk profiles (1,2). With more than 100,000 implants worldwide, TAVI has cha...
متن کاملEchocardiography for transcatheter aortic valve implantation.
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a new technology that treats severe aortic stenosis. The technology has specific and mandatory technical requirements that must be met to allow safe and successful procedures. The echocardiographic method for diagnosis of aortic stenosis, anatomical case selection, procedural guidance and management of complications is discussed in this context....
متن کاملSCCT expert consensus document on computed tomography imaging before transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI)/transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).
Computed tomography (CT) plays an important role in the workup of patients who are candidates for implantation of a catheter-based aortic valve, a procedure referred to as transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) or transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Contrast-enhanced CT imaging provides information on the suitability of the peripheral access vessels to accommodate the relativ...
متن کاملPros and cons of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) or replacement (TAVR) was recently approved by the FDA for intermediate risk patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS). This technique was already worldwide adopted for inoperable and high-risk patients. Improved device technology, imaging analysis and operator expertise has reduced the initial worrisome higher complications rate associated with TA...
