Conditions

Amyloidosis

Brief summary

Those with abnormal vital signs after TAVR need to be willing to obtain a bone scan to evaluate for wildtype amyloidosis. Positive bone scan findings will require evaluation for primary amyloidosis with blood and urine monoclonal immunoglobulin testing. Primary amyloidosis is a different type of disease which requires different treatment.

Detailed description

This research is interested in determining how common wildtype amyloidosis is after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Amyloidosis is a condition characterized by abnormal protein which can accumulate and impair various organs, including the heart. Research suggests that amyloidosis might be common among TAVR patients, but it is a condition that is not routinely evaluated for. We suspect that wildtype amyloidosis may be especially common among patients with abnormal vital signs after their TAVR procedure.
