U.S., Oct. 14 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07872020) titled 'SYMmetric Valve fraME Expansion To Reduce hYpoattenuated Leaflet Thickening After Balloon-expandable TAVI: the SYMMETRY Trial' on Oct. 07.
Brief Summary: Rationale: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become the standard of care for aortic stenosis across all surgical risk categories, including low-risk, younger patients (>=70 years). As many of these patients are expected to outlive their prosthetic valves, the durability of the valve becomes an increasingly critical factor. Hypoattenuated leaflet thickening (HALT), a finding on post-TAVI computed tomography (CT), occurs in approximately 20% of patients and is associ...
