Aortic Stenosis

The Burden of Aortic Stenosis2-7


 

Some of the more commonly experienced symptoms include:8


 

Fatigue

Inability to exercise

Fainting

Shortness of breath

Chest pain

Heart palpitations

Presence of a heart murmur

Due to the often slow, progressive nature of Aortic Stenosis, patients may not recognise the symptoms because their daily activity levels may have only gradually reduced over time.9 Most patients are first diagnosed when a systolic murmur is detected.8,9


 

Aortic Stenosis has a high risk of mortality after the onset of symptoms10


 


 

Is there an option for those with Aortic Stenosis?


Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a minimally invasive option for patients with aortic valve stenosis.11 The Navitor™ TAVI System is indicated for transcatheter delivery in patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis who are considered high surgical risk.11

HAEMODYNAMIC IMPACT

Non-tapered stent and large effective orifice areas (EOAs) resulting in single-digit gradients are associated with improved cardiac function, long-term durability, and minimal prosthesis-patient mismatch.2
