Randomized Trial of TAVI vs. SAVR in Patients With Severe Aortic Valve Stenosis at Low to Intermediate Risk of Mortality

Randomized controlled, multi-center trial randomizing patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis at low to intermediate operative risk of mortality in a 1:1 fashion to transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) or surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) to test, whether TAVI is non-inferior to SAVR, as measured by all-cause mortality or stroke after 1 and 5 years.
