Overview
This symposium hosted at Transcatheter Interventions Online 2024 explored cutting-edge advancements in coronary access and valve design within TAVI. The faculty analysed factors affecting coronary access across diverse valve designs and strategies to enhance access. This session provides step-by-step techniques for achieving optimal implant depth and implements guidelines for procedural confirmation in TAVI.
Learning objectives
- Evaluate the factors influencing coronary access in different valve designs
- Formulate strategies to optimise coronary access based on valve characteristics
- Evaluate the role of valve design in reducing pacemaker implantation rates and enhancing future coronary access
- Learn the step-by-step process for achieving optimum implant depth during TAVI
- Apply guidelines and best practices for achieving and confirming optimum implant depth in TAVI procedures
Target Audience
- Interventional Cardiologists
- Surgeons with an interest in transcatheter treatment strategies for coronary and structural heart disease
- Interventional Cardiology Nurses
