Why the study?
Does preprocedural LV-GLS predict post-TAVR morbidity and mortality in patients with severe aortic stenosis?
Does preprocedural LV-GLS predict post-TAVR morbidity and mortality in patients with severe aortic stenosis?
Preprocedural LV-GLS is a significant predictor of post-TAVR morbidity and mortality, highlighting its potential role in risk stratification for patients with severe aortic stenosis.
May enhance pre-TAVR risk stratification; confirms LV-GLS prognostic value in severe aortic stenosis.
Preprocedural LV-GLS was significantly associated with post-TAVR morbidity and mortality. This suggests a potential clinically important role of pre-TAVR evaluation of LV-GLS for risk stratification of patients with severe aortic stenosis.
