Key result
Supra-annular self-expanding valves demonstrated superior hemodynamics compared to balloon-expandable valves in patients with a small aortic annulus undergoing TAVR.
Comparative study evaluates hemodynamic outcomes across transcatheter valve platforms in patients with small aortic annulus, indicating device-specific effects on procedural performance.
In patients with a small aortic annulus (SAA) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), supra-annular self-expanding valves (SEV) have been shown to have superior hemodynamics compared to balloon-expandable valves (BEV). In this study, we compared intra-annular SEV to both supra-annular SEV and BEV.
