Inclusion Criteria

Inclusion criteria for the TAVI group include undergoing elective TAVI at the Royal Adelaide Hospital, male or female, and aged over 60 years. Participants with a clinical diagnosis of a neurodegenerative condition (including dementia) will be eligible for inclusion as it is reflective of the general older population who would be considered appropriate for cardiovascular procedures and thus will facilitate clinical translation of study results (note: different consent process for those with a clinical diagnosis of dementia).
Inclusion criteria for the control group include male or female, and aged over 60 years. Participants with a clinical diagnosis of a neurodegenerative condition including dementia will be eligible for inclusion (note: different consent process for those with a clinical diagnosis of dementia).

Exclusion Criteria

Key exclusion criteria include current or recent (within the past year) alcohol or substance abuse or dependence, use of recreational drugs (within the past month), a diagnosed learning disability, insufficient English language, hearing (with aids) or vision (with glasses) to complete assessment tasks.
Control participants will be excluded if they are found to have a heart murmur and/or aortic stenosis, a history of cardiovascular disease.
TAVI participants will be excluded if they are already enrolled in a TAVI clinical trial.
