Multicenter evaluation of edwards sapien positioning during transcatheter aortic valve implantation with correlates for device movement during final deploymentmulticenter evaluation of edwards sapien positioning during transcatheter aortic valve implantation with correlates for device movement during final deployment
JACC Cardiovascular Interventions, 06/08/2012
Dvir D et al. – The final Edwards SAPIEN position is mostly aortic in relation to the lower sinus border. There is an operator–independent upward movement of the device center during the final stage of implantation. Anticipated upward movement of the device should influence its positioning before final deployment.
