This study aims to evaluate the implementation of concomitant CAD assessment on pre-TAVI (transcatheter aortic valve implantation) planning CTA (CT angiography) aided by CT-FFR (CT-fractional flow reserve) [The CT2TAVI protocol] and investigates the incremental value of CT-FFR to coronary CT angiography (CCTA) alone in the evaluation of patients undergoing CT2TAVI. This is a prospective observational real-world cohort study at an academic health system on consecutive patients who underwent CTA for TAVI planning from 1/2021 to 6/2022. This represented a transition period in our health system, from not formally reporting CAD on pre-TAVI planning CTA (Group A) to routinely reporting CAD on pre-TAVI CTA (Group B; CT2TAVI protocol).

Objectives: To assess the safety, reliability and acceptability of the modified incremental step test (MIST) supervised remotely via videoconferencing in adults with chronic respiratory disease.
Methods: Adults with chronic respiratory disease undertaking pulmonary rehabilitation were invited to undertake the MIST under two testing conditions: in-person supervision and remote supervision via video-conferencing. Test order was randomised.
