John Carroll, M.D., FACC, FSCAI, director of interventional cardiology and co-director of the Cardiac and Vascular Center at the University of Colorado Hospital, offers an overview of the Society of Thoracic Surgeons and American College of Cardiology (STS/ACC) Transcatheter Valve Therapy (TVT) Registry and how it is being used. The data from the registry is being used to accelerate advancement of transcatheter valve repair and replacement technology and facilitate faster regulatory reviews. This included the FDA's adding of a new indication for the use of current TAVR valves for valve-in-valve procedures. The registry also offers comparisons for things like surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) vs. transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and how procedural volume impacts outcomes.
