Background: Real-world data regarding clinical outcomes according to aortic stenosis (AS) management are scarce. Therefore, we aimed to investigate long-term management across the spectrum of outpatients with AS.
Methods And Results: Between May 2016 and December 2017, consecutive outpatients with mild (peak aortic velocity, 2.
