Early TAVI Devices for Severe Aortic StenosisSignificant benefit for inoperable/high-risk patients, but… • Paravalvular regurgitation • Associated with increased mortality* • Valve malpositioning • Valve migration, embolization, ectopic deployment, TAV-in-TAV • Stroke Current devices have limitations 2nd generation devices should • Reduce aortic regurgitation • Have simple, precise & atraumatic aortic/ventricular repositioning • Allow full atraumatic retrieval Weare not sureiftheoutcomeofthe 2nd generationisbetter. *Kodali, NEJM 2012;366:1685; Tamburino, Circ 2011;123:299; Abdel-Wahab, Heart 2011;97:899
Heart Team: ? Howtoimprovetheoutcomeofourveryoldpatients ? Wecheckedthe last 200 patients, anddiscussedthepatientswhichdiedwithin 30 days. Wediscussedthefollowing:-Patient selection -Access -Way of Implantation -Amountofradiopaque -Lost of Blood Wehave not allwaysdone a perfectjob

Heart teamPatient selectionandtherapie • Weanalyse all theresults in theheartteam. • Bedside check thepatientstogether. • Do selection TAVI vs. Valvereplacement. • Discuss alternative accessandvalves.

SoftwareHeart Navigator The secondimportandchangetoimprovetheoutcomeofour TAVI patients was touse a newsoftwarewhileimplantingthevalve.
HeartNavigator • Step 1: The „HeartNavigator“-software automaticallydoesthesegmentationoftheheart,based on thepre-operative CT ( LV.,theaorticvalveandtheaortaincludingthecoronaryostia ). After thatwe do additional measurements.( Annulus – LCA or RCA ) • Step 2: The HeartNavigatorautomaticallycalculatesviews in linewiththevalve. Westoretheseviewstouseitduringtheprocedure.( virtualdeviceimplantation ) Measurement of the distance between valve plane and coronary ostia Segmentation View calculation
HeartNavigator • Step 3 : Registration :We must register 2D imagesfromthe x-raysytemwiththe CT model.Thetworegistrationrunsshouldbeacquiredwith a difference in rotation angle of at least 60 degrees. • Step 4 : Live Guidance: NowtheHeartNavigatorprovide an overlayimageshowingthefluoroscopy in relationtotheoutlineoftheaorticrootderivedfromthe CTA.
