Upfront TAVR was more protective against death and heart failure events compared with clinical surveillance among patients with moderate AS with at least one at-risk feature, the randomized PROGRESS trial showed. @crfheart.bsky.social #TCT2026 https://www.medpagetoday.com/meetingcoverage/tct/123709
Upfront TAVR May Be the Way Forward in Moderate Aortic Stenosis, Trial Suggests
First randomized study to evaluate TAVR versus clinical surveillance in moderate AS

Earlier TAVR improved a combined outcome, not deaths alone, in selected older adults. Moderate-AS use remains investigational. PROGRESS explained:

Autus TAVR approval is big. Earlier HF screening could catch missed disease sooner.

PROGRESS: In patients with moderate aortic stenosis and at least one at-risk feature, earlier #TAVR lowered the incidence of death or HF event, reduced HF hospitalizations and improved quality of life at two years compared to clinical surveillance. 🔗 https://bit.ly/4jOVowj

In a trial of 744 older people with a narrowing heart valve, 16.7% who got a valve replacement had a serious outcome within 2 years, against 23.9% who were just monitored.

Eight randomized trials, 11,692 patients: routine embolic protection during TAVR showed no statistically clear stroke reduction. Smaller benefits or selected-patient benefits remain possible. This does not challenge valve replacement itself.

Per Edwards' Nov. 2 release, PROGRESS randomized 744 moderate AS patients with at-risk features. At two years, death or heart failure events were 16.7% with TAVR vs 23.9% with surveillance. All-cause mortality was similar, and 57% of the surveillance group had valve replacement by year two.

Earlier valve replacement halved heart-failure hospitalization rates over two years in selected older adults with moderate aortic stenosis. Longer-term benefits remain under study. doi.org/hcq36d
Earlier valve replacement benefits some patients with moderate aortic stenosis
Patients with moderate aortic stenosis, a narrowing of the heart's aortic valve, may benefit from undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) before the disease becomes severe, according to findings from a clinical trial co-led by Cedars-Sinai investigators.

You know when a patient needs a valve intervention. But how do you recognize when the valve isn't the whole story?

This fucking son of a bitch. The Dr who did my dad's TAVR was a Pakistani immigrant who trump tried to deport in his 1st term. The Cleveland Clinic fought to get him back, why? Because he was one of the few who was able to perform the procedure. /1
