Why the study?
Is a balloon expandable sheath (SoloPath) a feasible alternative to conventional sheaths in transfemoral TAVR patients with difficult femoral vascular access?
Is a balloon expandable sheath (SoloPath) a feasible alternative to conventional sheaths in transfemoral TAVR patients with difficult femoral vascular access?
The SoloPath balloon expandable sheath provides a viable access option for TAVR patients with challenging femoral anatomy.
May support use in select difficult-access TAVR cases; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation.
The SoloPath sheath is a feasible alternative to conventional sheaths for transfemoral TAVR patients with difficult femoral vascular access.
