In the OPERA-TAVI registry, matched patients undergoing TAVI using Evolut PRO/PRO+ and Sapien 3 ULTRA devices exhibited comparable rates of the composite endpoint of all-cause mortality, rehospitalisation for heart failure, or disabling stroke at 1 year. eurointervention.pcronline.com/article/one-ye…

1-year outcomes OPERA-TAVI registry finally out! 👉 No differences in mortality and re-hosp 👉Higher disabling stroke in Evolut PRO/PRO+ (2.6% vs. 0.4%). Selection bias? Real THV effect? It is time for more RCTs! #TAVI EuroIntervention Giuliano Costa eurointervention.pcronline.com/article/one-ye…

In the RE-ACCESS 2 Study unsuccessful coronary cannulation after #Evolut and #Acurate implanted with commissural alignment was 5.5%. Acurate still better than Evolut, but Remarkable improvement compared with RE-ACCESS.Commissural alignment in #TAVI matters JACC Journals

💥TAVR in Small Annuli: SAPIEN ULTRA vs. Evolut PRO JACC Journals 🌐A SMART Trial-like design in a Real-World TAVR Registry 🔗 doi.org/10.1016/j.jcin… Azeem Latib @MatteoMSturla GCosta Marco Barbanti Montefiore Health System Albert Einstein College of Medicine - Official ⏳ What will the SMART RCT show American College of Cardiology?

Self-expanding (SE) Evolut PRO vs balloon-expandable (BE) SAPIEN ULTRA in small annuli: 🔸 SE - superior hemodynamic performance (gradients, PPM) 🔸 BE - less PVL, PPI, stroke 📎 bit.ly/3vntMHB #JACCINT #vhdAS #TAVI

Any crystal ball predictions as to how this will differ from the results of the SMART trial being presented at ACC next month?

This propensity-score matched study may be a foretaste of the SMART trial that will be presented at ACC this week. Evolut PRO and SAPIEN ULTRA Performance in Small Aortic Annuli: The OPERA-TAVI Registry | JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.…

🚨 The #PURPOSE study demonstrated better acute performance of the #JenaValve compared to non-dedicated THVs in those undergoing #TAVR for aortic regurgitation. bit.ly/466COH1 #JACCINT #vhdAR

The Reverse Paradigm: Business Driven Science. The rapid expansion of transcatheter Tx for tricuspid regurgitation, fueled initially by industry’s pursuit of profit following the success of TAVR, has exposed a critical gap in our understanding of the disease—a gap that could

My main takeaway from RHEIA: The first ever RCT only including women sets the scene for TAVI being the default strategy in female<75 with severe AS🔥🔥! Better access, short hospital stay, faster recovery + excellent clinical and echo outcomes.
