SecOnd-generation seLf-expandable Versus Balloon-expandable Valves and gEneral Versus Local Anesthesia in TAVI

Not Applicable

• Conditions: Aortic Stenosis

• Registration Number: NCT02737150
• Lead Sponsor: Helios Health Institute GmbH

Brief Summary

Aim of the study is to demonstrate equivalence of second-generation self-expandable valves (CoreValve Evolut R) in comparison to second-generation balloon-expandable valves (Edwards Sapien 3) and of local anesthesia with conscious sedation in comparison to general anesthesia with respect to safety and efficacy in high-risk patients with severe aortic stenosis undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation.
