Improved HRV, Inflammation Markers and Endothelial Function After TAVI

Completed
Conditions
Severe Aortic Stenosis
TAVI
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: Flow mediated vasodilatation
Diagnostic Test: High resolution ECG
Diagnostic Test: Blood withdrawal
Registration Number
NCT04286893
Lead Sponsor
University Medical Centre Ljubljana
Brief Summary

Severe aortic valve stenosis is known to affect heart haemodynamics, endothelial function and body inflammation markers. Our aim is to investigate the weather transcatheter aortic valve implantation in patients with severe aortic stenosis affects heart rate variability, inflammation markers and endothelial function.
