Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The investigators seek to determine the feasibility of assessing neurologic injuries subsequent to transcathether aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Such a model has been applied previously by the principal investigator to assess and improve neurologic outcomes for other cardiac surgical procedures. The investigators shall assess patients during the following intervals: pre-procedure, within 72-96 hours post-procedure, and 3 months post-procedure. Case videos will be established to assist in identifying and associating emboli (using transcranial Doppler) and processes of clinical care during the TAVR procedure. Neurologic injury will be assessed in the following ways: stroke (neurologic exam, NIH Stroke Scale), silent infarcts (diffusion-weighted MRI, diffusion-tensor imaging), and neurobehavioral deficits (a battery of neuropsychological tests). Secondly, the investigators will investigate changes in the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), a measure of sleep-disordered breathing, before vs after surgery between those subjects who develop post-operative acute brain infarction and those who do not. The investigators hypothesize that subjects who develop acute brain infarction will have an increase in AHI between baseline and post-op measurements compared with those subjects who do not develop acute brain infarction. A research coordinator will coordinate the testing.
