Reliability and Influence on Decision Making of fully-automated vs. semi-automated Software Packages for Procedural Planning in TAVI.

ABSTRACT: Precise procedural planning is crucial to achieve excellent results in patients undergoing Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). The aim of this study was to compare the semi-automated 3mensio (3?m) software to the fully-automated HeartNavigator3 (HN) software. We randomly selected 100 patients from our in-house TAVI-registry and compared aortic annulus and perimeter as well as coronary distances between 3m-measurements and post-hoc HN-measurements. Finally, we retrospectively simulated prosthesis choice based on HN-measurements and analyzed the differences compared to routinely used 3?m based strategy. We observed significant differences between the two software packages regarding area (3?m 464?±?88?mm², HN 482?±?96?mm², p?
