Brief Summary

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

This study evaluates whether a preoperative assessment of myocardial contractile reserve by tissue Doppler Imaging and myocardial fibrosis by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can enhance the patient selection and risk stratification to transcatheter aortic valve implantation.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In this prospective observation study we will investigate whether a preoperative test of myocardial contractile reserve can predict adverse outcome after TAVI. We intend to examine preoperative myocardial contractile reserve by use a low dose dobutamine test and relate this to pre-existing myocardial focal and diffuse myocardial fibrosis detected by new cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) methods and new echocardiographic methods. These measures will be primarily related to long term (12 months) mortality.

Study Groups

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

Preoperative myocardial reserve yes/no

Patients with extensive myocardial fibrosis typically presents with limited myocardial contractile reserve that can be assessed by a dobutamine stress test. The patients will be allocated to a responder and non-responder group according to the results from this test.
