Coronary Perfusion Following a Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Either Reanimated Swine or Preserved Human Hearts
These studies suggest that there may be stronger correlations between the ELOD and coronary perfusion post-TAVR than pre-procedural measurements of left coronary ostium heights. Left sinus heights, commissural alignments, and implant depths did not correlate significantly relative to coronary perfusions post-TAVR. These results could be further explored in various clinical studies and potentially used to provide additional insights into TAVR procedures across different patient anatomies, informing innovations in device design.
