In most patients with PH and AS, TAVR is associated with a significant early and late reduction of PASP. Patients with reversible PH after TAVR are at lower risk of all-cause mortality at early, mid-, and long-term follow-up. Therefore, the presence of PH should not preclude treatment with TAVR.
In VinV-TAVR for SBV-failure is a safe procedure resulting in hemodynamic improvement in the majority of patients. Residual stenosis is a common finding which can be observed in 1/4 of patients undergoing VinV-TAVR. However, this condition is not associated with increased 1-year-mortality.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
