Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation is an interventional procedure used for the treatment of aortic stenosis. Based at SAHMRI, the Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation Registry (TAVI-R) was established in 2018 as a clinical quality registry supported by the Australasian Cardiac Outcomes Registry (ACOR) Ltd. ACOR is an initiative of the Cardiac Society of Australia and New Zealand (CSANZ), which recognises the critical value of a national clinical cardiovascular quality registry incorporating quality, safety and appropriateness outcomes of patients undergoing aortic valve replacements via a transcatheter approach. A defined dataset is collected including patient characteristics, procedural techniques, device information and patient outcomes.

SAHMRI and ACOR work closely together to maintain and manage the registry of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation procedures throughout Australia. With the support of TAVI performing hospitals, clinicians and device companies, data collected not only enables ongoing monitoring of the safety of the procedure and the devices used, but also promotes research opportunities to improve patient care.

All hospitals undertaking TAVI procedures are eligible to contribute data to the Registry. In order for a surgeon to be credentialed in Australia to perform TAVI procedures, please refer to the guidelines, ‘Position Statement for the Operator and Institutional Requirements for a Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) Program’ which are produced by CSANZ.

The Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) Registry aims to:

  • Improve patient care and outcomes
  • Educate clinicians and healthcare providers
  • Identify areas of excellence and opportunities for improvement
  • Ensure sites and clinicians meet the accreditation requirements to undertake TAVI procedures
  • Provide an accurate and transparent assessment of the safety of the TAVI procedure and devices
