Lifetime Management : TAVR considerations for Future Interventions
Thursday Aug 01, 2024
Thursday Aug 01, 2024
Join us for an exciting discussion led by Dr Hemal Gada, an Interventional Cardiologist from UPMC,Pennsylvania, and Dr. Gilbert Tang, a Cardiac Surgeon from Mount Sinai in NY. The conversation will explore how the evolving TAVR landscape shapes Aortic Stenosis interventions. From the early days to the present, a significant number of patients have been treated, generating a wealth of data on efficiencies, PVL, Hemodynamic impact, and clinical results. What will the data reveal? Will we see a 'TAVR Tsunami' of patients or a more gradual increase in returning patients? Are there any predictors that can help us identify the right patient? What role does Neosinus flow and thrombosis play in this context?
Does valve selection influence future events? How do new generations of self-expanding valves influence clinical results? This is an opportunity to analyze mid-long-term data and explore these crucial topics. What do we know about explant TAVR?
These are just a few crucial topics explored in this upcoming edition of the Structural Heart Podcast. We invite you to join us for a deep dive into these issues in TAVR and Aortic Stenosis interventions.
