European Consensus on Antithrombotic Management in TAVR
All the controlled randomized evidence recently published called for an updated document on antithrombotic management in transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). While thrombotic and hemorrhagic complications have diminished over time—as both the technique and the devices have been perfected—, they still remain as common adverse events in TAVR. Recommendations in the 2017 European Guidelines were…
Silent Embolism during TAVR: Just Images or Potential Cognitive Deterioration?
Finding new cerebral ischemic imaging after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is almost the rule, especially for self-expandable valves. These images might disappear over the months but, unfortunately, they are associated to small but significative cognitive deterioration. Most patients undergoing TAVR develop silent cerebral ischemic lesions (SCILs) that show in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The…
Post TAVR Acute Coronary Syndrome: Frequency and Potential Damage
After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are rare and mostly present as non-ST elevation events. In this context, the few ST elevation events have bad prognosis, with close to 30% mortality at 30 days. This study included patients undergoing TAVR between 2012 and 2017 admitted for acute coronary syndrome during followup. …
SOLACI/SIAC Latin American Clinical Guidelines on TAVR vs. SAVR Published
The Latin American Society of Interventional Cardiology is proud to announce that the Latin American Clinical Guidelines on TAVR vs. SAVR on patients with severe aortic stenosis have been published. This high-quality scientific work was published in the Heart BMJ Journal and is the result of an arduous joint effort between SOLACI (through its Research…
Watch again our Webinar on Pressure Gradients After TAVR: Paradigm Shift?

Official Presentation of SOLACI / SIAC Latin American Clinical TAVR Guidelines
The Latin American Society of Interventional Cardiology (SOLACI) and the Inter-American Society of Cardiology (SIAC) have jointly developed their Clinical Guidelines on Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) to be presented this week at the Virtual SIAC Congress. The creation of these guidelines is the result of an important joint effort between SOLACI and SIAC during…
