MRI in Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement Patients

Comparison of Hemodynamic Performance of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement With Supra-Annular Self-Expanding Versus Balloon-Expandable Valves Assessed by Exercise Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance

Important: This information is not medical advice. Talk to your doctor about whether a clinical trial is right for you.

About This Trial

The hypothesis is that SEV result in superior valvular hemodynamics (more pronounced during exercise) and exercise capacity relative to BEV. Furthermore, the hypothesis is that stress CMR will be able to demonstrate differences in these hemodynamic parameters. CMR will also provide refined assessment of paravalvular leak and its impact on ventricular function and on clinical outcomes.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: - Aortic valve stenosis with clinical indication for valve replacement decided by a dedicated heart team; - Planned transfemoral TAVR; 18 years of age or older; - Able to give willing to sign a consent form. Who Should NOT Join This Trial: - Patients with permanent pacemakers or implantable defibrillators; - Patients with non-MRI safe implants; - Severe claustrophobia; - Inability or contraindication to perform exercise bike stress test; - Arrhythmia which would prevent adequate cardiac gating, including atrial fibrillation; - Reduced left ventricular systolic function (\<40%); - History of surgical aortic valve replacement or patients who undergo a valve-in-valve TAVR procedures; - Significant non-treated coronary artery disease. Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.
