2. Peak velocity ≥4m/s OR mean pressure gradient ≥40mmHg WITH aortic valve area \>1.0 - ≤1.2cm2 OR \>0.6 - ≤0.7cm2/m2 body surface area AND high sex specific calcium score\* OR

3. Peak Velocity ≥3.5m/s - 3.9m/s AND mean pressure gradient \<40 mmHg WITH aortic valve area ≤1.0cm2 OR ≤0.6cm2/m2 body surface area AND high sex specific calcium score\* \*Sex specific high calcium scores (Agatston units): \>1200 females; \>2000 males

Voxsanity reformats data from public registries into this layout. It does not edit, interpret or add to what the registry published.

Not medical advice.

Individual trial records are refreshed on a rolling basis rather than all at once, so a record may be up to several weeks old. Each trial page and trial card shows the date its own record was last synced. Where a record has lagged, its status, sites and enrolment can differ from the current registry state in either direction, so check the registry link on the trial page before acting on them.
