Summary

Ticagrelor administered with Acetylsalicylic Acid (ASA) will provide better cerebral protection from microembolization in the cerebral circulation during Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) and 30 days afterwards, than Clopidogrel plus ASA. This hypothesis will be investigated by measuring the number of High Intensity Transient Signals (HITS) as assessed with transcranial Doppler (TCD) on middle cerebral arteries.

Conditions

  • Aortic Valve Stenosis

Interventions

DRUG

Ticagrelor plus ASA

Subjects in the Ticagrelor group will receive ASA 80mg qd 7 days prior to the TAVI procedure and for 90 days and Ticagrelor 90mg bid 1 day prior to the TAVI procedure and for 90 days.

DRUG

Clopidogrel plus ASA

Subjects in the Clopidogrel group will receive ASA 80mg qd 7 days prior to the TAVI procedure and for 90 days and Clopidogrel as a loading dose of 300 mg 1 day prior to the TAVI procedure and thereafter 75mg qd for 90 days.
