Severe Symptomatic Aortic Valve Stenosis
Brief summary
First clinical experience on the ACURATE TF™ Transfemoral Aortic Bioprosthesis Implantation in Patients with Severe Aortic Stenosis to collect human data pertaining to the safety and performance of the device from three different cohorts
Detailed description
A prospective, multicenter, CE-approval cohort analysis with the Symetis ACURATE TF™ Transfemoral Aortic Bioprosthesis for minimal invasive implantation via transfemoral access to treat patients with severe aortic stenosis where conventional aortic valve replacement (AVR) via open heart surgery is considered to be associated with high risk, to evaluate the feasibility and performance of the implantation at 30-Days and at 1-Year Follow-up.
Interventions
ACURATE TF™Transfemoral Aortic Bioprosthesis is intended for subjects with severe symptomatic Aortic Stenosis and are considered high risk for surgical conventional Aortic Valve Replacement .

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Freedom from all-cause mortality | 30-Day Follow-up | Rate of all-cause mortality |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Rate of MACCE (major cardiac and cerebrovascular event) related to the ACURATE TF™ Transfemoral Aortic Bioprosthesis and Delivery System. | 30-Days and 12 Months Follow-up | Rate of major cardiac and cerebrovascular event (MACCE) at 30 days and at 12 months follow-up related to ACURATE TF™ Transfemoral Aortic Bioprosthesis and Delivery System and defined as all cause death, myocardial infarction, re-intervention and stroke. |
| Change in NYHA class over time | 30-Day and 12-Month | Functional improvement from baseline NYHA classification at 30 day and at 12 month follow-up. |
| Procedural success during device implantation | intraoperative | Procedural Success defined as stable study device placement at intended site and adequate device functioning immediately post-implantation, confirmed by angiography and echocardiography and without intra-procedural mortality. |
| Device success | 30-Day and 12-Month Follow-up | Device success is defined as adequate functioning of the study device as confirmed by angiography and/or echocardiography. The following data points will be analyzed for adequate functioning of the study device: * Effective orifice area and index (EOA) * Peak jet velocity * Transvalvular aortic gradient (mean) * Paravalvular and intravalvular (central) leak * Aortic Insufficiency * Valve function and morphology |
