Summary

The Brain lEsions after TrAnscatheter aorTic ValvE Replacement (BETTER) registry is a prospective, observational, multi-center registry aiming to assess the presence of new brain microbleeds assessed on susceptibility-weighted imaging at 3 enrolling sites, in China (West China Hospital, Sichuan University), UK (St Thomas' Hospital) and Denmark (Rigshospitalet, University of Copenhagen). The main study arm is planned to include 100 patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis undergoing transfemoral TAVR of any devices and 50 isolated bioprosthetic SAVR patients treated during the enrollment period as a control arm.

Conditions

  • Aortic Valve Stenosis
  • Brain Diseases

Interventions

OTHER

Brain MRI

Brain MRI will be scheduled within three days before the procedure and within seven days after the procedure, as well as at 1-year follow-up. MRI will be preferably performed using a 3.0-Tesla system unless patients are pacemaker-dependent after the procedure. In such case, a 1.5-Tesla system will be used. The MRI protocol consists of standardized conventional diffusion-weighted MRI (DW-MRI), T2-FLAIR (fluid-attenuated recovery inversion) and SWI (susceptibility-weighted imaging) parameters.
