Abstract

Recently published 30-day all-stroke data from PARTNER 3 (SAPIEN vs. surgery) and the EVOLUT LOW RISK trial (Evolut vs. surgery) revealed a lower stroke rate with the balloon-expandable valve (0.6% vs. 3.4%). A head-to-head comparison of both valve types regarding stroke, however, is not available.
