Brief Summary

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

Recent observational data showed a marked reduction of vascular and bleeding complications by the use of ultrasound(US)-guided femoral artery puncture to gain the vascular access and guide the implantation of the Perclose ProGlide® vascular closure system.

We aimed to compare in a 1:1 randomized fashion the effect of US-guided femoral puncture and Perclose ProGlide® implantation optimization vs fluoroscopy-guided puncture followed by Perclose ProGlide/ ProStyle implantation (standard approach) during TAVR.

Detailed Description

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

Transfemoral approach has become the standard route for a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) procedure. Despite the technology improvements, vascular complications and access-related bleeding are frequently observed after TAVR and emerge predominantly within 30 days after TAVR. Recent observational data showed a marked reduction of vascular and bleeding complications by the use of ultrasound(US)- guided femoral artery puncture to gain the vascular access and guide the implantation of the Perclose ProGlide® vascular closure system.

We aimed to compare in a 1:1 randomized fashion the effect of US-guided femoral puncture and Perclose ProGlide® implantation optimization vs fluoroscopy-guided puncture followed by Perclose ProGlide/ ProStyle implantation (standard approach) during TAVR.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Eligible Patients are male or female with severe aortic stenosis evaluated by the Heart Team as candidate to TAVR based on the current cardiology guidelines.

Exclusion Criteria

* Refusal to participate in the study;
* Inability to provide written consent to the study protocol;
* Chronic immuno-suppressant therapy;
* Any concomitant condition which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would not allow safe participation in the study (e.g., drug addiction, alcohol abuse, emotional/psychological disorder);
* Enrolment in another study that could confound the results of this study;
* Life expectancy \< 1 year;
* Any contraindication to TAVR procedure;
* Non transfemoral TAVR.
