ARTIST: Aortic Regurgitation Trial Investigating Surgery Versus Trilogy™
To demonstrate non-inferiority of the Trilogy Transcatheter Heart Valve (THV) System compared with surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for treatment of subjects with clinically significant native aortic regurgitation (AR)
Advanced Goal-Directed Impedancemetry Strategy for Lung Resection Surgery
High-risk patients scheduled for lung resection surgery are increasing and theoretically eligible to perioperative individualized goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT). However, thoracic surgery is challenging for intraoperative stroke volume (SV) and/or cardiac output monitoring because it requires lateral positioning, one-lung ventilation, and open-chest condition. Pulse contour analysis and esophageal Doppler have …
TRanscatheter Aortic-Valve Implantation Without On-site Cardiac Surgery
TRACS-PRIME is a prospective, randomized, multicenter clinical trial evaluating whether transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) can be performed safely and effectively in selected hospitals without on-site cardiac surgery, when appropriate patient selection, experienced operators, advanced imaging, and established transfer pathways are available. The study will include patients with severe symptomatic …
