Current Guidelines for TAVR? Severe Aortic Stenosis • Class IA ¡ TAVR is recommended

Current Guidelines for TAVR? Severe Aortic Stenosis • Class IA ¡ TAVR is recommended in patients who meet an indication for AVR who have a prohibitive or high risk for surgical AVR and a predicted post-TAVR survival greater than 12 months • Class IIA ¡ TAVR is a reasonable alternative to surgical AVR in patients who meet an indication for AVR and who have intermediate surgical risk for surgical AVR Nishimura et al.

The PARTNER 3 Trial Study Limitations • Results only reflect 1 -year outcomes; long-term

The PARTNER 3 Trial Study Limitations • Results only reflect 1 -year outcomes; long-term assessment of structural valve deterioration is required. § 10 -year clinical and echocardiographic FU planned in all patients • Results only apply to the enrolled AS population (e. g. bicuspid aortic valves, non-suitable for TF, and complex CAD excluded).

The PARTNER 3 Trial Clinical Implications • Based upon these findings, TAVR, through 1

The PARTNER 3 Trial Clinical Implications • Based upon these findings, TAVR, through 1 -year, should be considered the preferred therapy in low surgical risk aortic stenosis patients! • PARTNER randomized trials over the past 12 years, clearly indicate that the relative value of TAVR compared with surgery is independent of surgical risk profiles. • The choice of TAVR vs. surgery in aortic stenosis patients should be a shared-decision making process, respecting patient preferences, understanding knowledge gaps (esp. in younger patients), and considering clinical and anatomic factors.

Conclusion TAVR may be a preferred strategy to surgery in patients with severe aortic

Conclusion TAVR may be a preferred strategy to surgery in patients with severe aortic stenosis at low risk of surgical mortality.

Life After Low-Risk Trials? • All pts should be referred to Valve clinic first

Life After Low-Risk Trials? • All pts should be referred to Valve clinic first and evaluated by a cardiologist expert in TAVR (no more CT surgeon gate keeper) • First visit should be with TTE and CTA available if possible • Stratification mainly based on anatomy (CTA) • Risk of TAVR vs. Risk of SAVR? • TAVR first; if not doable, SAVR • If biological SAVR an option, think TAVR first • Sapien 3 THV first if possible (keep future treatment simple/doable) • Patient preference • Expansion of AVR Indication to identify patients earlier that might benefit early intervention

SAVR vs. TAVR Favor SAVR (for now…) Favor TAVR • Sub-optimal anatomy for TAVR

SAVR vs. TAVR Favor SAVR (for now…) Favor TAVR • Sub-optimal anatomy for TAVR • All the rest… ¡ Root rupture feature ¡ Low coronary implantation ¡ Bicuspid ¡ Aortic root disease ¡ Surgical CAD ¡ Multiple valve disease • Mechanical valve prosthesis • Ross Procedure
