Axial diastolic pressure pullout forces on transcatheter valve stent.
| Aortic Annulus size (mm) | Deq-min (mm) | Deq-max (mm) | ΔPTAV stent (mmHg) | Forcemin (N) | Forcemax (N) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 19 | 20 | 24 | 100 | 4.2 | 6.0 |
| 21 | 21.7 | 24.6 | 100 | 4.9 | 6.3 |
| 23 | 23.5 | 25.3 | 100 | 5.8 | 6.7 |
Footnote: Deq = equilibrium position after a 26 mm diameter TAV stent was deployed inside the aortic root. ΔPTAV stent = approximation of the pressure gradient across the TAV stent.
