Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety and performance of the F2 device for cerebral embolic protection in participants with symptomatic aortic stenosis underdoing a Transcatheter Aortic Valve replacement procedure. Participants will complete several neurocognitive assessments and an MRI procedure.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- criteria:
- Age ≥ 22 years.
- The patient meets the established criteria and indications for commercially available TAVR (Edwards/Medtronic) for transfemoral access.
- Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) score ≥ 26 at screening.
- The patient is willing and able to comply with protocol-specified follow-up evaluations.
- The patient or legally authorized representative is able and willing to provide written informed consent.
You may not qualify if:
- Contraindications to MRI (e.g., subjects with MR unsafe implants including implantable temporary or permanent pacemaker or defibrillator, metal implants in field of view, metallic fragments, clips, or devices in the brain or eye before TAVR procedure, or claustrophobia).
- Severe peripheral arterial, abdominal aortic, or thoracic aortic disease that precludes delivery sheath vascular access or filter deployment.
- Patients in whom the aortic arch is heavily calcified, severely atheromatous, or severely tortuous.
- Ascending aortic diameter \> 38 mm or transverse aortic diameter \> 27 mm.
- Evidence of an acute myocardial infarction within 1 month before TAVR.
- Pre-existing prosthetic heart valve or prosthetic ring in any position.
- Known intracardiac thrombus.
- Severe allergy or known hypersensitivity or contraindication to aspirin, heparin/bivalirudin, clopidogrel, nitinol, stainless steel alloy, and/or contrast sensitivity that cannot be adequately pre-medicated.
- History of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy or patients in whom anti-platelet and/or anticoagulant therapy is contraindicated.
- Patients who refuse blood transfusion.
- Active peptic ulcer or history of upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding within the prior 3 months.
- Recent (within 6 months) CVA or a TIA.
- Renal insufficiency (creatinine \> 2.5 mg/dL or GFR \< 30) and/or renal replacement therapy at the time of screening.
- Patients with hepatic failure (Child-Pugh class C).
- Patients with hypercoagulable states that cannot be corrected by additional periprocedural heparin.
