Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Safety - Incidence of 30-Day combined rate of the following events directly related to the transShield EPS as defined by VARC-2
* Major Adverse Cardiac and Cerebrovascular Events (MACCE) * All cause mortality * All cause stroke (disabling and non-disabling) * Acute kidney injury (Stage 2 or 3) * Major vascular complications
30 day combined rate post-procedure
Performance - Technical Success defined as the transShield EPS ability to perform all the following functions without adjudicated device malfunction
* Ability to successfully deploy the device in the correct anatomical position, in the ascending aorta without interference with TAVR procedure/devices * Ability to retrieve and remove the device intact, including no visual evidence of any filter damage
During the procedure
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Safety - Incidence of minor vascular complications directly related to the transShield EPS as defined by VARC-2.
30 days post-procedure
Study Arms (1)
Single arm
EXPERIMENTALPatients with severe native aortic valve stenosis who meet the commercially approved indications for TAVR.
Interventions
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients must meet all of the following criteria to be eligible for participation in the study:
- Patient is \>18 years old
- Patient is scheduled for percutaneous TAVR with up to 20French compatible commercial TAVR system
- Patient meets indications for TAVR per the device Instructions For Use
- The diameter of the artery at the site of the filter placement is between 28 mm and 42 mm
- Size and condition of the femoral artery iliac arteries are appropriate for the 12French transShield Expandable Introducer and 20F Embolic Protection Device
- Patient, or authorized representative, signs a written Informed Consent form to participate in the study, prior to any study mandated procedures
- Patient is willing and able to complete follow-up requirements
You may not qualify if:
- Patients must be EXCLUDED from participation in this study if any of the following criteria are met:
- Patient not undergoing TAVR via the trans-femoral route
- Carotid artery stenosis \>70% in either carotid artery
- Severe vascular tortuosity or anatomy that would preclude the safe introduction of the device
- Aortic valve is a congenital unicuspid or congenital bicuspid valve or is non-calcified
- Mixed aortic valve disease (aortic stenosis and aortic regurgitation with predominant aortic regurgitation \>3+)
- A known contraindication or hypersensitivity to all anticoagulation regimens or an inability to undergo anticoagulation for the study procedure
- History of bleeding diathesis or in whom anticoagulant and/or anti-platelet therapy is contraindicated, patients who will refuse transfusion, or havean active peptic ulcer or upper GI bleeding within the prior 3 months
- Renal insufficiency, defined as a creatinine level \> 221μmol/L and/or end-stage renal disease requiring chronic dialysis at time of treatment
- History of stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) within prior 6 months

- Hemodynamic or respiratory instability requiring inotropic support, mechanical ventilation, or mechanical heart assistance within prior 30 days
- Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with or without obstruction
- Need for emergency surgery for any reason
- Severe left ventricular (LV) dysfunction with LV ejection fraction (LVEF) \<20%
- +12 more criteria
