Clinical Implications of Physical Function and Resilience in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

Clinical Implications of Physical Function and Resilience in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

Background Gait speed is a reliable measure of physical function and frailty in patients with aortic stenosis undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Slow gait speed pre‐TAVR predicts worse clinical outcomes post‐TAVR. The consequences of improved versus worsened physical function...
