Long-term durability has become a key goal of TAVI. This state-of-the-art article focuses on the definition, aetiology, risk factors, mechanisms, diagnosis, clinical impact, and management of bioprosthetic valve dysfunction (BVD) and failure (BVF) following TAVI.

Lipoprotein(a) is one of the strongest risk factors for aortic stenosis. Results of our new meta-analysis, just out in JAMA Cardiology, reveal that Lp(a) is also strongly associated with aortic stenosis *progression*! Thanks to everyone who contributed. jamanetwork.com/journals/jamac…

RHEIA Trial: women w/ severe AS, TAVI using SAPIEN 3/SAPIEN 3 Ultra superior to surgery for primary composite end point of death, stroke, or rehospitalization at one year: superiority driven by lower rate of rehospitalizations. #ESC2024 #ESCCongress2024 European Society of Cardiology

Today we presented the results of the RHEIA trial at ESC in London. This is the very first RCT transcatheter therapy that is dedicated to women. TAVR was superior to SAVR for the PE of mortality, stroke and rehospitalization.

Our EHJ publ from ILUMIEN IV: Independent OCT predictors of safety and effectiveness outcomes in 2128 pts were min stent area (esp when <4mm2 [equiv to IVUS 5-5.5 mm2]), flow area and expansion, prox edge dissection (not distal diss like in prior studies), and stent length.

This is a post that reminds me why X, despite everything, remains my favorite social network. I asked a question I believe is legitimate, and within 24 hours I not only received a sophisticated technical solution (together with a custom-made calculator available to everyone:
