Structured PICO

Is baseline aortic valve gradient associated with clinical outcomes in patients undergoing TAVI for severe aortic stenosis?

Population

Patients undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) for severe aortic stenosis

Intervention

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI)

Outcome

Clinical outcome after TAVI

Baseline mean and peak aortic valve gradients can be used to identify patients with severe aortic stenosis who are most likely to benefit from TAVI.

Abstract

Mean and peak baseline AVGs are directly associated with improved outcomes after TAVI; AVG can be used to select the patients most likely to benefit from TAVI.
