Description

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement Program Development: A Guide for the Heart Team is the first text to provide a comprehensive, practical, clinical guide for program development and organization of the clinical pathway for TAVR including multidisciplinary integration of the evidence, guidelines, and best practices for TAVR. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is poised to become the standard of care for most patients with aortic stenosis. TAVR is a minimally invasive procedure that repairs the heart valve, without removing the damaged, valve and is geared to patients for whom an open heart surgery procedure is not an option due to age and overall health. Over 200,000 TAVR procedures have been performed in the first decade of innovation. The authors are international leaders in TAVR program development and are widely recognized for their pioneering role in shaping the way we care for TAVR patients and in organizing the appropriate health services to support innovation.
