Original Title: 12-month results of a novel large access closure device: insights from the FRONTIER II Study. Presenter: Arne Schwindt The FRONTIER II trial assessed the safety and efficacy of the vessel closure device VIVASURE in more than 50 patients using the femoral access for TAVI or aortic endoprosthesis.

The last generation of the balloon expandable valve resulted superior to surgery in intermediate riskpatients, in a registry analyzis. Patients treated with the SAPIEN 3 valve showed lower rates of death, stroke and paravalvular leak at one year than patients undergoing surgery. This third generation improves the SAPIEN XT with a skirt designed to prevent<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2016/04/08/the-sapien-3-valve-resulted-superior-to-surgery-in-an-observational-study/" title="Read more" >...</a>
At 3 year follow up, the CoreValve US Pivotal study on high risk elderly patients, the self-expanding valve showed a lasting benefit vs. surgery. These findings could suggest that the self-expanding valve should be considered the preferred treatment in patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis at increased risk for surgery. The study included 797 patients<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2016/04/08/corevalve-us-pivotal-at-3-years-the-self-expanding-valve-maintains-its-advantage-vs-surgery/" title="Read more" >...</a>
