Symptoms of aortic stenosis

▪ Shortness of breath

▪ Syncope or presyncope

▪ Angina

▪ Fatigue

▪ Difficulty when exercising

▪ Swollen ankles and feet

▪ Rapid or irregular heartbeat

▪ Palpitations (an uncomfortable awarenessof heart beating rapidly or irregularly)

The symptoms of aortic disease are commonly misunderstood by patients

as ‘normal’ signs of aging.3

Many patients initially appear asymptomatic,

but on closer examination up to 37% exhibit symptoms.4

Can we manage Aortic Stenosis with medications? … No. It is a mechanical problem.

• Vasodilators (NTG) are potentially dangerous, although may be useful in acutely decompensated AS with CHF, in ICU setting.

• Afterload reducing agents (ACEi, ARB) benefit is unclear

- traditionally has been relatively contraindicated

- ACEi has not prevented progression of AS severity in clinical trials

- An observational study suggested improved survival and lower CV events

- Not a specific recommendation, but its use for AS related co-morbidities ok

• Diuretics cautiously

• Digoxin if CHF present

• Re-establish / maintain Sinus rhythm

• Treating symptoms, NOT the underlying disease

What about “plain old” balloon aortic valvuloplasty?

- Palliative procedure- Bridge to sAVR or TAVR- Frail patients, very old- Compromised clinical

status from concurrent CAD and/or other extracardiac co-morbidities

why?- Fracture of calcific nodules- Commissural splitting- Annular stretching

BENEFITS OF AVR

1. Improved survival

2. Relief of symptoms

3. Increased ejection fraction

“Gold Standard”. Surgical AVR (sAVR) works, but its big surgery. Many are not even candidates

few willingly sign up..

Enter: PERCUTANEOUS Aortic Valve Replacement• novel concept of implanting an artificial valve within the structure of

the originally heavily diseased valve, while beating, using currently proven catheter techniques without need for general anesthesia or even a Foley catheter, performed within 45 minutes, and walks home the next day.

Early Opposition -• It Can’t be done - Impossible!

• Too Dangerous and unpredictable!

• Valve can’t be stented open !

• Durability unpredictable!

First proof of concept – Cadaver procedure

• A. Cribier, Rouen 1994

Demonstrated ability to deploy a PALMAZ STENT in the aortic position and contributed to appropriate stent dimensions.

Continuously Improving Processes

Procedural• Conscious sedation >> General Anesthesia• Cath lab > Hybrid OR• No central line or Swan catheter or even radial arterial lines often• Transthoracic ECHO >> Transesophageal ECHO • Percutaneous suture management for large bore arterial catheters >> surgical cutdown

POST Procedural Care Pathways• Remove lines ASAP• If appropriate, non-ICU (ie telemetry bed) recovery• Early ambulation encouraged• Echo in am, follow up labs, telemetry review – if all ok discharge

Leon MB, Mack MJ. PARTNER 3: transcatheter or surgical aortic

valve replacement in low risk patients with aortic stenosis.

Presented at ACC 2019; March 2019; New Orleans, LA

The PARTNER 3 TrialConclusions (1)

In a population of severe symptomatic aortic stenosis patients who

were at low surgical risk, SAPIEN 3 TAVR compared to surgery:

• Demonstrated superiority in the primary endpoint and 6 pre-

specified secondary endpoints, after first achieving non-inferiority

• Significantly reduced the primary endpoint of death, stroke, or

rehospitalization by 46% at 1-year.

▪ Components of the primary endpoint favored SAPIEN 3 TAVR,

both at 30 days and 1 year

▪ Multiple sensitivity analyses confirmed robustness of the

primary endpoint findings


• Secondary endpoints adjusted for multiple comparisons

indicated that SAPIEN 3 TAVR reduced new-onset AF, index

hospitalization days, and a measure of poor treatment outcome

(death or low KCCQ score at 30 days).

• Other secondary endpoint analyses also showed reduced

bleeding after SAPIEN 3 TAVR and no differences in the need

for new permanent pacemakers, major vascular complications,

coronary obstruction, and mod-severe PVR.


• SAPIEN 3 TAVR had more rapid post-procedure

improvement in patient-oriented functional indices, including

NYHA class, 6-minute walking distance, and KCCQ scores.

• SAPIEN 3 TAVR allowed 95.8% of patients to return home or

to self-care, compared to only 73.1% for surgery.

TAVR ISSUES

• Paravalvular leak (PVL): aortic regurgitation

• Permanent pacemaker

• Long term durability

• BICUSPID VALVES

• Coronary access post TAVR

What about Bicuspid Valves?- They were excluded from the randomized trials

With newer generation devices, even BICUSPID AS outcomes are much improved with lower adverse events

NOT all bicuspid valves will be best suited by TAVR. Individualized assessment needed.
