| pubmed-article:15063249 | pubmed:abstractText | Despite limitations the transvalvular gradient (TVG) still is commonly used in aortic stenosis when patients are referred for aortic valve replacement. We wished to ascertain if it had a role in predicting outcome from valve replacement rather than as an indicator of severity, specifically investigating if the TVG affected renal dysfunction, hospital stay, and medium-term survival after valve replacement. | lld:pubmed |
