Next-Generation Valve Replacement: Exploring the Potential of Sensor-Guided TAVI
This Breakout, held at Transcatheter Interventions Online 2024, discovers the concept of sensor-guided TAVI interventions using a dedicated LV-pacing guidewire designed to deliver efficient, predictable outcomes. Explore the potential benefits of continuous pressure gradient measurements, understand their impact on TAVI workflow enhancements and how continuous pressure gradient monitoring can shape clinical decision-making in specific settings during TAVI procedures.
Join an enlightening session where the faculty will uncover the latest advancements in TAVI interventions and their implications for patient care.
Learning Objectives
- Understand the advantages of a dedicated LV-pacing wire to optimise sensor-guided TAVI interventions.
- Analyse the potential benefits and TAVI workflow improvements of continuous pressure gradient measurements.
- Learn how continuous pressure gradient monitoring can influence decision-making in specific clinical settings during TAVI procedures.
Target Audience
- Interventional Cardiologists
- Surgeons with an interest in transcatheter treatment strategies for coronary and structural heart disease
- Interventional Cardiology Nurses

Faculty Biographies
Nicolas M Van Mieghem
Full Professor of Interventional Cardiology
Prof Van Mieghem initially intended to train as a cardiac surgeon but decided to specialise in interventional cardiology instead, following advice from a mentor. This decision was cemented when he read the first-in-human case report of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in Circulation by Alain Cribier in 2002. Prof Van Mieghem believes that great cardiologist genuinely cares for their patients. He names Gary Roubin, Dr Manu Malbrain and Professor Patrick Serruys among his mentors.
Academic History
Prof. Nicolas M. Van Mieghem completed his medical training at the Catholic University of Leuven (Belgium), where he earned both his medical degree and his specialist degree in cardiology. During his time in Leuven, he developed a strong interest in cardiovascular medicine, particularly in the emerging field of minimally invasive cardiac interventions. After finishing his core medical and cardiology training, he pursued multiple advanced…

With a profound dedication to advancing cardiovascular medicine, his research interests span various domains, including Interventional Cardiology, Internal Medicine, Primary Care, Coronary Intervention, Transcatheter Valve Intervention, and Structural Heart Innovations.
Ander Regueiro
Dr Ander Regueiro is a highly accomplished cardiologist with over a decade of experience. Dr Ander Regueiro obtained his Bachelor in Medicine from Universidad Autónoma de Querétaro in 2006, followed by specialty training in Cardiology at Hospital Clinic de Barcelona, Universitat de Barcelona. Dr Ander Regueiro holds multiple Master's degrees, including Clinical Research and Advanced Medical Competences from prestigious institutions in Barcelona. Dr Ander Regueiro specialises in transcatheter aortic valve replacement, percutaneous mitral valve repair and replacement, high-complexity coronary revascularisation, and left atrial appendage closure.
Rutger-Jan Nuis
Dr Rutger-Jan Nuis is a distinguished cardiologist affiliated with Rotterdam Erasmus Medical Center in the Netherlands. After completing his medical degree at a renowned university, Dr Rutger-Jan Nuis pursued specialised training in cardiology, developing a keen interest in interventional cardiology and cardiac imaging.
