Summary

This study looked at 150 older adults (75+) getting a new heart valve. It compared using a CT scan versus an invasive angiogram to check for blocked arteries beforehand. The goal was to see if the CT scan alone is safe and works just as well, potentially simplifying the process.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

Investigational CTA-only phase: 100 consecutive patient who have not already been diagnosed with significant (≥50%) left main coronary artery (LM) or proximal stenosis of the left anterior descending artery (LAD) ans who have not previously undergone coronary revascularisation. CTA+ICA control phase: 50 consecutive patients who have not alreeady been diagnosed with significant (≥50%) left main coronary artery (LM) / proximal LAD stenosis and who have not previously undergone coronary revascularisation and will undergo CTA. If LM/ proximal LAD stenosis of (≥50%) can be ruled out and ICA is also performed prior to TAVI these patients will serve as control group.
