Abstract:Aortic stenosis has become the most prevalent valvular disease with increasing life expectancy and the ageing of the population, representing a significant clinical burden for health care providers. Its treatment has been revolutionized by transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) as a safe and minimally invasive option for elderly patients. Left ventricular (LV) functional measurement is of particular importance before TAVR, however, increased afterload significantly influences the conventional echocardio… Show more
