Overview
In this on-demand version of the live broadcast, chaired by Dr Martin Swaans (St Antonius Hospital, NL), faculty explore the evolving data for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and why we need to improve triaging practices towards the most appropriate interventions.
Leading experts, Prof Sabine Bleiziffer (Heart and Diabetes Center NRW, DE), Prof Vijay Kunadian (Newcastle University, UK) and Dr Marta Sitges (Hospital Clínic de Barcelona, ES), discuss valve design and durability, clinical data from the SMART trial presented at ACC 2024 and how we can provide greater access for women in TAVI.
Learning Objectives
- Recall TAVI SMART trial data and the implications on clinical practice
- Describe novel valve designs and the impact on long-term performance
- Develop an expert-led approach to improving equitable access to TAVI
Target Audience
- General Cardiologists
- Echocardiographers
- Physiologists
- Physicians referring patients for TAVI
- Interventional Cardiologists
- Cardiac Surgeons
