Patient Type
Purpose
To collect information to observe the safety and effectiveness of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in moderate, symptomatic aortic stenosis and before aortic stenosis becomes severe.
The TAVR valve that will be studied in this trial has been approved as a safe and effective treatment for use in severe, symptomatic aortic stenosis condition only.
Description
TAVR is a treatment to replace your natural valve with an artificial valve that is made from pig tissue supported by a metal frame. The artificial valve is designed to work just like a healthy natural valve, opening and closing with each heartbeat. To place TAVR in your heart requires a minimally invasive medical procedure.
