Study Arms (3)

Warfarin plus Aspirin

OTHER

100 subjects will be randomized electronically through the Electronic Data Capture System in a 1:1 fashion to warfarin plus low dose aspirin for 30-45 days

Device: TAVROther: Warfarin plus Aspirin

Aspirin Monotherapy

OTHER

100 subjects will be randomized electronically through the Electronic Data Capture System in a 1:1 fashion to low dose aspirin monotherapy for 30-45 days

Device: TAVROther: Aspirin Only

Registry Arm

OTHER

Upto an additional 100 subjects with preexisting indication for anti coagulation (e.g. atrial fibrillation, deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism) or who are not eligible for randomization after TAVR due to development of a new indication for anti coagulation will be enrolled in the registry arm of the study.

Device: TAVR

Interventions

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

Aspirin MonotherapyRegistry ArmWarfarin plus Aspirin

Subjects randomized to this arm will receive Warfarin plus aspirin for 30- 45 days post TAVR

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Severe, degenerative AS, defined as:
  • Mean aortic valve gradient ≥40 mm Hg OR Vmax ≥4 m/sec AND
  • Calculated aortic valve area ≤1.0 cm2 OR aortic valve area index ≤0.6 cm2/m2
  • Symptomatic AS, defined as a history of at least one of the following:
  • Dyspnea that qualifies at New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II or greater
  • Angina pectoris
  • Cardiac syncope
  • The Heart Team agrees that the patient is low-risk, quantified by an estimated risk of death ≤3% by the calculated STS score for operative mortality at 30 days; AND agrees that SAVR would be an appropriate therapy if offered
  • A surgeon who is experienced in Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement (SAVR) has spoken with the patient in person and stipulates that the patient understands his/her alternatives for FDA approved therapy, including open heart surgery to replace their aortic valve
  • The institutional Heart Team determines that transfemoral TAVR is appropriate
  • Aortic valve anatomy and dimensions suitable for TAVR using a commercially available valve
  • Iliofemoral artery anatomy and dimensions suitable for transfemoral TAVR using a commercially available valve and delivery system
  • Procedure status is elective
  • Expected survival is at least 24 months

You may not qualify if:

  • Subject unable or unwilling to give informed consent
  • Concomitant disease of another heart valve or the aorta that requires either transcatheter or surgical intervention
  • Any condition that is considered a contraindication for placement of a bioprosthetic aortic valve (e.g. patient requires a mechanical aortic valve)
  • Aortic stenosis secondary to a bicuspid aortic valve
  • Prior bioprosthetic surgical aortic valve replacement
  • Mechanical heart valve in another position
  • End-stage renal disease requiring hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis, or a creatinine clearance \<20 cc/min
  • Left ventricular ejection fraction \<20%
  • Recent (\<6 months) history of stroke
  • Symptomatic carotid or vertebral artery disease, or recent (\<6 weeks) surgical or endovascular treatment of carotid stenosis
  • Any contraindication to oral antiplatelet or anticoagulation therapy following the procedure, including recent or ongoing bleeding, or HASBLED score \>3 (Table 2 - HASBLED scoring system)
  • Severe coronary artery disease that is unrevascularized
  • Recent (\<30 days) acute myocardial infarction
  • Patient cannot undergo transfemoral TAVR for anatomic reasons (as determined by supplemental imaging studies); this would include inadequate size of iliofemoral access vessels or an aortic annulus size that is not accommodated by the commercially available valves
  • Any comorbidity not captured by the STS score that would make SAVR high risk, as determined by a cardiothoracic surgeon who is a member of the heart team; this includes:
  • +12 more criteria
