Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Coaxial ratio of prosthetic aortic valve12 monthsDefinition: A coaxial index of less than 4 degrees or a coaxial angle of less than 10 degrees is considered coaxial if one of them is met, and the ratio of coaxial prosthetic aortic valves in the two groups test group (with 3D simulation technique) or control group (without 3D simulation technique) is calculated, respectively Coaxial rate per group = number of coaxial aortic valve prostheses per group/total number of cases per group 100%

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
All-cause death, Disabling stroke, Myocardial infarction, and Heart failure30 daysNumber of patients that had any of these events
Technical successimmediate postoperativeNo operative mortality;Successful puncture, device delivery and delivery system retrieval;Correct positioning and release of a single bioprosthetic aortic valve to the appropriate anatomical location;No device-related procedures or interventions, no major vascular or access-related complications, and no structural cardiac complications
All-cause mortality30 days,12 monthsRate of all-cause mortality
Device success30 daysTechnical success • Freedom from death • No device-related procedures or interventions, no major vascular or access-related complications, and no structural cardiac complications • The performance of the bioprosthetic aortic valve meets clinical requirements (mean aortic valve gradient \< 20 mmHg, peak velocity \< 3 m/s, Doppler velocity index ≥0.25 and \< moderate aortic regurgitation)
Myocardial infarctionbefore discharge, 30 days, 12 monthsNumber of patients that had event
Incidence of coronary obstructionbefore dischargeNumber of patients that had event
CT imaging changes12 months1\) New aortic sinus volume formed after prosthetic valve implantation2) Low density leaflet thickening/leaflet thrombosis on prosthetic valve
New York Heart Association Functional Classificationbefore discharge, 30 days , 12 months
Evaluation cardiac function by electrocardiography30 days,12 monthsLeft ventricular ejection fraction (%)
Evaluation of bioprosthesis performance by echocardiography30 days,12 monthsUsing the following measures:Aortic Valve Mean Gradient (cm2)
Contents of evaluation: including valve displacement, valve embolism and ectopic valve deploymentimmediate postoperativeValve Dislodgement: Following initial correct positioning, the prosthesis moved upward or downward within the aortic annulus from its initial position without valve embolization Valve embolization: Prosthesis moves upward or downward after final deployment, thereby losing contact with the aortic annulus Ectopic Valve Deployment: Prosthesis deployed in unintended location and unable to be explanted due to valve embolization or inability to deliver valve to intended location
Major Cardiac Structural Complicationsbefore discharge, 30 daysNumber of patients that had these events
