Stroke Risk & Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) with Dr. Isaac George

https://www.Heart-Valve-Surgery.com - While transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is considered one of the greatest advances in the aortic stenosis treatment, patients are often confused and concerned about the stroke risk associated with this non-invasive procedure. To learn more about the TAVR stroke risk, we interviewed Dr. Isaac George, the Surgical Director of the Structural Heart Disease at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital in New York City. During his extraordinary career, Dr. George has performed over 6,000 TAVR procedures. Key questions answered by Dr. George in this video include: 1. How common is stroke during a TAVR procedure? What is the current patient stroke rate during TAVR? 2. Is it true that 100% of patients who undergo TAVR have some calcium travel to the brain? 3. How is the SENTINEL Cerebral Protection System, a new FDA-approved therapy, helping doctors prevent strokes during TAVR? What are the theoretical benefits of the SENTINEL? 4. How do SENTINEL filters collect calcium debris during a TAVR operation? 5. Why is the SENTINEL only used at 20% of cardiac centers that perform TAVR? 6. How might the PROTECT TAVR clinical trial impact the utility of the SENTINEL Cerebral Protection System during TAVR to minimize stroke risk?
