Show Notes
In this episode, Dr. Valentin Fuster discusses the five-year results of the SOFT TAVI trial, which compared self-expanding and balloon-expanding valves for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in patients with severe aortic stenosis. The findings reveal similar long-term outcomes for both valve types and anesthesia strategies, with subtle differences in stroke rates and pacemaker implantations, emphasizing the growing safety and efficacy of conscious sedation in TAVR procedures.
