Summary

To date, no formal, randomized, prospective, head-to-head comparisons of surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) versus transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) have been undertaken in the severe aortic stenosis (AS) population with small aortic annuli. Objectives of the present study are to compare the hemodynamic performance (incidence of severe PPM and ≥ moderate AR) and clinical outcomes (death, stroke, major or life threatening bleeding) between TAVR and SAVR in patients with severe AS and small aortic annuli.

Conditions

  • Degenerative Aortic Valve Disease
  • Aortic Stenosis
  • Aortic Regurgitation

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Edwards

The TAVR procedure will be performed with the Edwards SAPIEN XT or SAPIEN 3 valve (20, 23 or 26 mm).

PROCEDURE

CoreValve

The TAVR procedure will be performed with the CoreValve Evolut R valve system (23 or 26 mm).

PROCEDURE

Acurate neo

The TAVR procedure will be performed with the ACURATE neo aortic valve.

PROCEDURE

Standard

The choice of the type and size of valve, utilization of additional procedures such as root enlargement will be left at the discretion of heart team of the treating the patient.
