Conditions

Summary

The role of cardiac mechanics, circulating biomarkers and frailty in predicting outcomes in patients with aortic stenosis after aortic valve replacement (SCRABLES -The 2-Parts Study) Part I: Observational study to characterize phenotypes, structural alterations and biomarkers profiles in a broad spectrum of patients with aortic stenosis and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Part II: Prospective cohort study to characterize patients' phenotypes, cardiac structural alterations, circulating biomarkers and frailty in order to optimize risk stratification and patient selection for aortic valve intervention.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Inclusion Criteria2

  • Part II - Segment A and B Age ≥ 18 years old AS classified according to aortic valve area measured by Doppler echocardiography Group 1: Moderate AS (1.0-1.5cm2) Group 2: Severe AS (1cm2) Group 3: HF with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF ≥45%) without significant AS
  • Part II - Segment C (Control Group) Age ≥ 18 years old Healthy subject taking into account exclusions parameters at the time of screening Able to sign the consent form

Exclusion Criteria2

  • Part I and II - Segment A and B Prior AVR either by surgery or trans-aortic valve implantation; Severe mitral valve disease or aortic regurgitation; LVEF \< 45% Myocardial infarction within the previous 3 months; Angina limiting the 6MWTD and thought to be the result of severe coronary artery disease; Cerebrovascular transient ischemic attack or stroke within the previous 6 months; Known active infection or cancer; renal insufficiency (glomerular filtration rate \<30 mL/min/1.73m2) or end-stage renal disease; Significant anemia (haemoglobin \<90 g/L) or thrombocytopenia (platelet count \<50), history of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy; Life expectancy \<12 months due to non-cardiac co-morbid conditions; Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with Global initiative for chronic obstructive lung disease (GOLD) stages 3-4; musculoskeletal disease limiting the ability to perform the 6MWTD.
