Routine post-dilatation at nominal volume to optimise the expansion of balloon-expandable valves: the DOUBLE-TAP study
In favourable anatomy, routine double-tap after BE TAVI improved THV expansion with no safety concerns. The impact of this strategy on THV function, haemodynamic profile, and durability remains to be determined.
