Redo TAVR May Be Reasonable Option for Failed Transcatheter Heart Valves

A study found that patients who underwent a second TAVR procedure were no more likely to experience adverse outcomes than those who have only undergone one TAVR. Because TAVR patients are expanding into younger populations, the analysis of registry data is important in informing decision making among these patients, who are more likely to need a second TAVR in their lifetimes.
