Unverified Answer

What are the primary aims of this medical trial?

"According to Abbott Medical Devices, the clinical trial's principal aim is a 2-year evaluation of all-cause mortality, stroke risk, cardiac hospitalization events or acute kidney injury necessitating renal replacement therapy (excluding any cardiac episodes within 30 days post treatment). Additionally, this study will also assess secondary endpoints such as severe symptomatic mitral stenosis at 1 year and time spent in care from index procedure to home discharge for both Device and Control groups. Lastly, investigators are looking into the proportion of patients being discharged to their homes after treatment amongst both experimental arms." - Anonymous Online Contributor
