Background: Atrioventricular (AV) conduction disturbances requiring permanent pacemaker
(PPM) implantation may complicate transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) …

The development of new devices and treatment options has greatly increased the interest in
heart valve diseases. In this context, the consideration of gender differences in diagnosis …

Risk stratification tools used in patients with severe aortic stenosis have been mostly derived
from surgical series. Although specific predictors of early mortality with transcatheter aortic …

Medical devices (MDs) have distinctive features, such as incremental innovation, dynamic
pricing, the learning curve and organisational impact, that need to be considered when they …

Background—In patients with severe aortic stenosis, transcatheter aortic valve replacement
(TAVR) improves survival when compared with nonsurgical therapy but with higher in …

Background: The number of patients treated for aortic valve disease in the United States is
increasing rapidly. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is supplanting surgical …

Objective To compare the cost of and payments for transcatheter aortic valve replacement
(TAVR), a novel and expensive technology, and surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) …

The aim of this study was to compare in-hospital cost and outcomes between transcatheter
aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR). TAVI is an …

Objective The scope of this systematic review is to update the existing body of evidence
regarding the cost-effectiveness of transcatheter aortic valve implantation, stratified across …

Background Contemporary options for aortic valve replacement (AVR) include transcatheter
and surgical approaches (TAVR and SAVR). As evidence accrues for TAVR in high and …
