  • Overview

    There are limited data on the long-term durability of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and surgery for severe aortic stenosis (AS) in patients of all risk levels. Management of patients with AS requires an understanding of bioprosthetic valve durability and failure. Revisit the evidence evaluating the 5-year incidence, outcomes, and predictors of hemodynamic structural valve disease in patients undergoing TAVR and surgery that will support best practices for treatment selection.

  • Learning Objectives

    After participating in this educational activity, participants should be better able to:

    • Evaluate the role and advantages of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) therapeutic options based on recent lifetime management evidence
    • Apply recent evidence on structural valve deterioration to validate the clinical use of TAVR in a variety of patient types
    • Assess the value of the collaboration between interventional cardiologists and cardiac surgeons, the “heart team” approach, resulting in cooperative and improved care for patients
  • Target Audience

    This activity is designed to meet the educational needs of cardiologists, cardiovascular surgeons, and interventional cardiologists.
