We compared transcatheter aortic valve implantation outcomes of the Evolut-R and CoreValve devices. This study indicates that the efficacy and safety of the self-expandable second-generation Evolut-R transcatheter valve is at least comparable...

The Medtronic Evolut Pro valve (EPV) is a new-generation self-expanding valve (SEV), particularly designed to reduce paravalvular leak (PVL) rates in transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). We aimed to compare the safety and efficacy...
