Summary

This single-center, non-commercial clinical study investigates how different types of transcatheter aortic valve prostheses affect cerebral oxygen saturation during the procedure (TAVI - Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation). The study uses a non-invasive monitoring system (NIRS) to track brain oxygenation (rSO₂) in real time.

The goal is to understand whether balloon-expandable, intra-annular self-expanding, or supra-annular self-expanding valves lead to different levels or patterns of cerebral oxygenation. This may help identify early warning signs for delayed hemodynamic recovery, stroke, or delirium.

Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of:

A balloon-expandable valve (Group A), or

A self-expanding valve (Group B), with further randomization into:

Group B1: intra-annular valve (NAVITOR)

Group B2: supra-annular valve (EVOLUT)

The procedure, follow-up, and data collection will follow standard clinical practice. No experimental devices or drugs are used. Patients will not undergo any additional risk or burden beyond what is normally expected during TAVI.

The study is being conducted at the Fondazione Policlinico Universitario A. Gemelli IRCCS in Rome, Italy, and aims to enroll 40 patients. No compensation is provided, and participation is voluntary.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Near-infrared spectroscopy monitoring (NIRS) INVOS 5100C

Continuous bilateral cerebral oxygen saturation monitoring using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) during TAVI. Sensors are placed on the forehead to record rSO₂ values at predefined timepoints. Device used: INVOS 5100C (Medtronic/Covidien).
