Randomized study on strategies for assessing coronary artery disease in patients with severe aortic stenosis undergoing catheter-based aortic valve replacement
Descrizione riassuntiva dello studio
Narrowed coronary arteries and a narrowed aortic valve often occur together. Guidelines recommend an invasive catheter examination to assess the coronary arteries before a valve procedure. However, the benefit-risk ratio of routine invasive coronary catheterization prior to catheter-based aortic valve replacement is unclear, as the treatment of aortic stenosis itself may improve myocardial perfusion and corresponding symptoms.
(BASEC)
Intervento studiato
The study investigates whether omitting routine coronary catheterization before treatment of aortic stenosis and further assessment of the coronary arteries only in the presence of corresponding symptoms (intervention group) is non-inferior to routine coronary catheterization (control group) regarding adverse clinical outcomes after 1 and 3 years.
