SOLVE-TAVI focused on the long-term impact of selecting different second-generation transcatheter heart valves and anesthesia strategies for transfemoral TAVR procedures.

Philippe Genereux, MD, principal investigator of the EARLY TAVR trial, noted that many patients with severe AS still go untreated.

Costs remain a concern, especially for low-volume centers, but robotic-assisted MV repair is associated with short-term outcomes comparable to more conventional techniques. 

Gilbert Tang, MD, spoke to Cardiovascular Business about late-breaking data from the TRILUMINATE IDE trial. While early results were promising, these latest findings highlight the TriClip device's true value for the first time.

Six multispecialty cardiovascular societies have called on CMS to approve Medicare payments for tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER).

Philippe Genereux, MD, principal investigator of the EARLY TAVR trial, discussed how a proactive treatment strategy for patients with asymptomatic AS can lead to better outcomes and improvements in quality of life.

Robotic-assisted aortic valve surgery may be a safe, effective alternative to TAVR when treating low- and intermediate-risk patients. A new analysis in The Annals of Thoracic Surgery explored this topic at length.

The three-day conference begins Saturday, Nov. 16, in Chicago. Topics will include AI, heart failure, patient management and much more.
