Overview

Supports selective balloon dilation in TAVR; extends prior reviews by synthesizing current expert consensus.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR)
I
Intervention
Balloon pre-dilation and post-dilation

Balloon pre- and post-dilation during TAVR are no longer considered mandatory and should be applied selectively based on individualized patient and procedural factors.
