Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The main study parameter is progression of AVS over time. In addition, a number of candidate risk factors for AVS progression will be recorded, including a traditional lipid spectrum, lipoprotein(a) and a blood sample for DNA isolation. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The following parameters will be recorded for each participant: - Identifying information (name, sex, date of birth, contact details) - Anthropometric data (height, weight) - Comorbidities (hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes, coronary artery disease) - Medical history - Medication use - Laboratory parameters (traditional lipid spectrum, lipoprotein(a), fasting glucose, eGFR) - Echocardiography parameters: Bicuspid / tricuspid aortic valve morphology Aortic valve calcification score Stroke volume, mL Aortic valve maximum velocity, m/sec Maximum transvalvular gradient, mmHg Mean transvalvular gradient, mmHg Aortic valve area, cm2 Indexed aortic valve area, cm²/m² body surface area LV mass index, g/m² body surface area LV ejection fraction, % | — |
