TEE 3D RV Assessment for SAVR, Mini AVR, and TAVR

Description

Three-dimensional echocardiography has become a gold standard to assess right ventricular (RV) function, and investigators plan to use 3D transesophageal echocardiography to assess RV function in 3 types of aortic valve replacement (AVR): surgical AVR (SAVR), mini-sternotomy AVR (mini AVR), and transcatheter AVR (TAVR).

Conditions

Right Ventricular Dysfunction
