Does pressure recovery explain echo-invasive gradient discordance after TAVR?
Absolute Event Rate: 5.1% vs 3%
p-value: p=0.02
Pressure recovery is a major mechanistic contributor to echo-invasive gradient discordance after TAVR, particularly in small self-expanding valves.

Ismayl et al. (2026) conducted a cohort in Aortic Stenosis (n=189). Small self-expanding valves (23mm) vs. Larger valve sizes (26-29-34mm) was evaluated on Echo-invasive gradient discordance (ΔMG) at pre-discharge (p=0.02).
