Summary

This prospective, single-center observational study aims to evaluate the relationship between changes in aortic valve hemodynamics and pulmonary congestion in patients undergoing elective transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for severe symptomatic aortic stenosis. Pulmonary congestion will be assessed non-invasively using lung ultrasound, with particular emphasis on B-lines, at predefined time points before and after TAVI. Changes in aortic valve area and other echocardiographic parameters will be evaluated in relation to changes in lung ultrasound findings. The primary objective is to determine the association between improvement in aortic valve area following TAVI and changes in pulmonary congestion.

Conditions

  • Aortic Stenosis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI)

Transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) performed as part of routine clinical care in patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis. The decision to perform TAVI and procedural management are independent of study participation. No modification of the TAVI procedure is made for research purposes.
