NCT03385915

Brief Summary

The FinnValve investigators planned a nationwide registry to investigate the early and late outcome of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) compared to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) in patients with aortic valve stenosis performed from 2008 to 2017 at five Finnish University Hospitals. Data will be collected in a dedicated electronic case report form.

Study Population

Patients who underwent transcatheter (TAVI) or surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for severe aortic valve stenosis at five Finnish University Hospitals from January 2008 to September 2017

You may qualify if:

  • Patients who underwent transcatheter (TAVI) or surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for severe aortic valve stenosis
  • Patients aged \>18 years
  • Primary aortic valve procedure with a bioprosthesis for AS with or without associated regurgitation.
  • TAVI and SAVR with or without associated coronary revascularization
  • TAVI and SAVR for AS after any prior major cardiac surgery with exception of any maze procedure and/or closure of the left atrial appendage.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients who underwent any prior SAVR or TAVI
  • Patients undergoing concomitant procedures on the mitral valve, tricuspid valve or the ascending aorta.
  • Patients operated on for aortic valve endocarditis
  • Patients operated for isolated aortic valve regurgitation.
