Balloon Expandable Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation Without Predilation of the Aortic Valve

NCT02127580 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 200

Last updated 2018-04-27

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

There is limited experience for the balloon expandable THV (transcatheter heart valve) on the need for predilation (ballon aortic valvuloplasty, BAV). Therefore we aim to verify results of a small case series published by Wendler et. al. to examine hard endpoints such as the incidence of cerebrovascular complications, paravalvular leakage and operative outcomes in a multicenter registry.

We aim to compare the implantation of balloon expandable transcatheter heart valves with or without predilation with respect to procedural outcomes (VARC2).
