Frailty and aortic valve disease [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2013
Frailty is a common occurrence in elderly persons and is present in approximately half of the patients being screened for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) therapy. Accurate assessment of the likelihood of benefit from intervention in the older patient with aortic stenosis is critical with both surgical aortic valve replacement and TAVR now
