1 Aortic Valve Surgery Today Is Your Patient a Candidate for Cath or Scalpel Identifying the Patient for TAVI Aortic Valve Disease 16.5 Million People in US Over the Age of 65 2 Percentage Diagnosed with Aortic Stenosis Aortic Stenosis 86.7% Aortic Valve Survival Survival after onset of symptoms is 50% at 2 years 1

2 Survival, % Aortic Valve Survival Patient Survival Years AVR, AVR, No no Symptoms Sx AVR, Symptoms Sx No AVR, No no Symptoms Sx No No AVR, Symptoms Sx Study data demonstrate that early and late outcomes were similarly good in both symptomatic and asymptomatic patients It is important to note that among asymptomatic patients with SAS, omission of surgical treatment was the most important risk factor for late mortality Surgical Aortic Valve (SAVR) 30,000/year Aortic Stenosis 86.7% Operative Mortality 2.6% Surgical Aortic Valve (SAVR) n = 108,791 isolated AVR Aortic Stenosis 86.7% Brown et al.

Predictors of 2 yr mortality after TAVR include prior stroke [HR 2.99 (95% CI 1.19 to 7.51)] and O2-dependent COPD [HR 1.69 (95% CI 1.05 to 2.73)].

This efficacy trial was funded by Edwards Lifesciences, the maker of the SAPIEN Despite randomization, the Standard Rx group had significantly more COPD, atrial fibrillation, and fraility.
