Atrial fibrillation is relatively common in patients with chronic aortic regurgitation and is associated with an elevated ...

The last test I received was three years ago, which came back with a reading of mild-to-moderate aortic regurgitation. It initially started out as mild, then increased to mild-to-moderate in 2019.

Moderate to severe paravalvular regurgitation occurred in only 0.6% of patients at 30 days and 6 months and was not seen at 1 year. Mild regurgitation declined from 18.0% at 30 days to 5.2% at 6 ...

In the nonblinded, single-arm ALIGN AR trial, Thourani and colleagues analyzed 30-day safety data from 180 adults with symptomatic moderate to severe aortic regurgitation ( 3+) at high surgical risk.

Of the patients in the study, 30% did not have aortic regurgitation after TAVR, 50% had trivial aortic regurgitation, 17% had mild aortic regurgitation and 2.5% had moderate aortic regurgitation.

All patients had moderate to severe symptomatic aortic regurgitation and underwent TAVR with the Trilogy valve. To date, about 360 patients have at least one year of follow-up after their ...
