Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Heart Failure
- Narrative review
Study context
- Population
- Patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) and concomitant heart failure (HF), particularly LV systolic dysfunction, acute HF and RV systolic dysfunction
Main finding
As reported in the abstract
Outcomes of TAVR in patients with HF
- Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) offers patients with HF significant haemodynamic benefits, with corresponding changes in LV structure and improved mortality and QoL
- Prognostic covariates and optimal timing of TAVR in less than severe AS remain unclear
