Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study evaluates the incidence and predictive factors of hypothyroidism in elderly patients who undergo trans-catheter aortic valve replacement (TAVI) for aortic stenosis. It aims to assess thyroid function before and after the TAVI procedure, considering factors such as underlying thyroid disease and medication use. The study will also explore how the occurrence of hypothyroidism affects geriatric assessments in these patients. By understanding these dynamics, the study seeks to improve patient outcomes following TAVI.
