Direct TAVR vs. Predilation: Potential Cost of a Simpler Procedure

Does simplifying TAVR involve a cost? At least for low-risk patients included in the PARTNER 3, the question appears somewhat abstract. Predilation and direct TAVR resulted equally safe, though the latter shortened procedural time and did not require further post dilation.  Both strategies resulted virtually identical in terms of clinical events.  The use of predilation

Predilation in TAVR and Myocardial Injury

Performing balloon predilation or valvuloplasty before a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) may increase the incidence and magnitude of myocardial injury with new-generation balloon-expandable valves. Some papers argue in favor or against direct implantation, others remain neutral, but this research is the first one to express a different point of view. Historically, the biggest fear

Predilation in TAVR: Definitive Data for Easier Decision-Making?

Direct implantation (without predilation) resulted non-inferior vs. the conventional strategy with prior balloon aortic valvuloplasty using the S3 prosthesis (even though this did not translate into a simplified procedure). In a few patients, the prosthesis was not able to cross the native valve, which resulted in device retrieval and subsequent valvuloplasty. According to these data,
