Moderate Aortic Stenosis and Reduced Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction: Current Evidence and Challenges Ahead

Moderate Aortic Stenosis and Reduced Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction: Current Evidence and Challenges Ahead

Moderate aortic stenosis (AS) and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) constitute a clinical entity that has been proposed as a therapeutic target for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). It is defined by a mean trans-aortic gradient between 20 and 40 mmHg and an aortic valve...
