Talk:Transcatheter aortic valve replacement

message: In europe/UK they have used Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) since about 2007. 7,000 such procedures are expected to be performed in Germany in 2010. Approx 1000 have been done in UK and NICE have approved it for patients not suitable for open heart surgery. 
It sounds like the same/similar procedure but US trial implanted cow heart valves so maybe it counts as a different procedure and justifies a separate article.

thread_title:  Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation 

message: Having trouble figuring out how the existing, original valve is removed. Can someone add detail on this? CrocodilesAreForWimps (talk) 05:07, 9 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I have corrected misleading information since the native valve is not "removed". Artificial valve is "implanted" over the native valve; therefore the correct term is Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation and not "replacement". Replacement of the native valve is possible only surgically during open-heart surgery with direct removal of the native valve. 31.51.253.134 (talk) 19:05, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
thread_title:  How is the existing valve removed? 

message: How is the transcatheter valve actually inserted, in layman's terms? This is what I had hoped to learn, but did not find. The term 'method of entry' is not sufficiently clear to a non-doctor. Is it an injection, for instance? Ginestre (talk) 16:50, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  How is this procedure done, in words of one syllable? 

message: Move of this article requires discussion. Thus moved back. Regardless of where it is moved to the term should not be all caps. Prior / current term used here  Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 12:32, 11 October 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: This procedure is no longer referred to as PAVR. It is now solely referred in medical literature as transcatheter aortic valve implantation or replacement. I believe this is up for discussion however a quick PubMed search will confirm my point. Captain108 (talk) 20:43, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Which ref are you looking at? These people use PAVR  and this 2014 review  Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 00:07, 6 November 2015 (UTC)

text: Maybe try a WP:RM for further input. Mass Gen uses PAVR  as does the this review  ICD also uses the term  Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 06:07, 2 December 2015 (UTC)

message: I would remove Edwards valve since I discovered it is no more available on the market; instead, I would insert the Jenavalve TAVI.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fredthewise (talk • contribs) 20:45, 26 April 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Edwards TAVI valve? 

message: Why not just call it transcatheter aortic valve replacement? Percutaneous is not a wider term. 
A lot of the procedures are not percutaneous (i.e. having the catheter put in by poking a hole in the skin). Many procedures require surgical techniques for access, e.g. transapical, transaortic and cutdown in transfemoral.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thefatmonkey (talk • contribs) 14:02, 18 March 2017 (UTC)
