Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Investigators sought to demonstrate that the increase in the stroke volume during a dobutamine stress echocardiography might impact the prognosis of a patient addressed for a low flow low gradient suspected severe aortic valve stenosis.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Patient with aortic valve stenosis

115 patients will undergo a medical examination in order to analyse their medical history, cardiovascular parameters and check inclusion and non-inclusion criterions.

Then will be performed :

* An electrocardiogram
* 2D and 3D echocardiography
* Dobutamine stress echocardiography
* Blood tests : blood electrolytes, creatinine, hemoglobin, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-ProBNP), C reactive protein (CRP), soluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 (ST-2)
* A cardiac MRI
* A cardiac scanner
* A 6-minutes walking test
* An evolution of the Duke Activity Score
