Objective
to determine if PCI prior to TAVI would produce non inferior clinical results compared with no PCI
Study
investigator led, multicentre non-inferiority randomised trial (margin 7.5%)
Population
patients with severe aortic stenosis and at least 1 stenosis of â¥70% in major coronary artery
Endpoints
