About this trial
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) outcomes in patients with raphe-type bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) are still suboptimal for the non negligible rate of stroke and permanent pacemaker implantation. There is still lack of consensus on the optimal sizing method for prosthesis selection in BAV patients.
The objective of the present study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the LIRA sizing method in raphe-type BAV patients undergoing TAVR.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
All patients over 18 years old with severe aortic stenosis and type 1 or 2 BAV according to Sievers classification) undergone TAVR with self-expanding supra-annular prostheses sized according to the LIRA method between September 2018 and June 2024
Disqualifiers
Redo-TAVR
TAVR performed in emergency setting
TAVR performed for severe aortic regurgitation
Trial population

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Device success
Device success as defined by VARC 3 criteria : presence of technical success, freedom from mortality, freedom from surgery or intervention related to the device or to a major vascular or access-related or cardiac structural complications, intended performance of the valve (less than moderate aortic regurgitation, mean gradient \< 20 mmHg, peak velocity \<3 m/s, doppler velocity index \>0.25).
Secondary outcomes
Number of partecipants with TAVI-related Adverse Events as assessed by VARC 3 criteria.
* All-cause mortality * All stroke * VARC type 2-4 bleeding * Major vascular, access-related, or cardiac structural complication * Acute kidney injury stage 3 or 4 * New permanent pacemaker due to procedure- related conduction abnormalities * Surgery or intervention related to the device
Clinical efficacy
Freedom from all-cause mortality, freedom from all stroke, freedom from hospitalization for procedure -or-valve-related causes, freedom from KCCQ Overall Summary score \<45 or decline from baseline \>10 point
Technical success
Freedom from mortality; successful access, delivery and retrieval of the delivery system; correct positioning of a single prosthetic heart valve into the proper anatomical location; freedom from surgey or intervention related to the device or to a major vascular or access-related, or cardiac structural.
Intended performance of the valve
Less than moderate aortic regurgitation, mean gradient \< 20 mmHg, peak velocity \<3 m/s, doppler velocity index \>0.25
