Transcatheter Aortic Valve Intervention-Live Transmission (VERITAS)Study

The primary objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate safety of patients who underwent Transcatheter Aortic Valve Intervention (TAVI) during a live case or video-taped transmission as compared to those without procedure transmission.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

A series of sites from outside the US, where the Edwards-Sapien and CoreValve devices are approved for commercial sale and implantation, will be recruited to retrospectively identify and extract in-hospital data of a patient who underwent TAVI during a live or video-taped procedure and a matched patient who underwent TAVI without transmission of the procedure.
