Article Synopsis
- Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is increasingly being used for low-risk patients, showing safe and effective outcomes when performed under conscious sedation.
- A study analyzed 105 patients who underwent minimalist TAVR via a percutaneous transfemoral approach, reporting a high success rate of 99% with low rates of complications such as all-cause mortality (0.9%) and strokes (1.9%).
- The procedure resulted in significant improvements in heart function, with a mean gradient reduction from 47.5 mmHg to 9 mmHg, and overall outcomes comparable to recent low-risk TAVR studies.
