Late stroke after transcatheter aortic valve replacement: a nationwide study
Abstract Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a rapidly growing field. Short-term safety and efficacy of these procedures have been studied extensively. However, little is known about the safety of these devices over time. Stroke is one feared long-term complication, and an increased str...

The study was based on data from three national registries: a TAVR registry, a stroke registry, and a diagnosis registry.
