  • Pre-planned PCI performed within 2 weeks prior to valve procedure or implantation of a permanent pacemaker or Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) is not considered exclusionary criteria.
• Complex coronary artery disease:
  • Unprotected left main coronary artery;
  • Syntax score > 32 (in the absence of prior revascularization).
• Non-complex, flow limiting coronary artery disease requiring revascularization that cannot be treated at the time of or within 2 weeks prior to the valve procedure.
• A planned concomitant surgical or transcatheter ablation for atrial fibrillation.

• Hemodynamic or respiratory instability requiring inotropic support, mechanical ventilation or mechanical heart assistance within 30 days of the screening visit.
• Emergency interventional/surgical procedures within 30 days of the valve implant procedure
• Any planned surgical or peripheral procedure to be performed within the 30 day follow-up from the valve implant procedure.
• Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with or without obstruction (HOCM).
• Ventricular dysfunction with LVEF < 45%
• Cardiac imaging (echo, CT, and/or MRI) evidence of intracardiac mass, thrombus or vegetation.
• History of upper GI bleeding within 90 days of the valve implant procedure.
• Inability to tolerate anti-thrombotic/ anticoagulation therapy during or after the valve implant procedure.
• Stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) within 180 days of the valve implant procedure.

• Active bacterial endocarditis within 180 days of the valve implant procedure.
• Severe lung disease (FEV1 < 50% predicted) or currently on home oxygen.
• Chronic liver disease (MELD Score ≥ 10 or Child-Pugh Class B or C).
• Significant aortic disease, including marked tortuosity (hyperacute bend), aortic arch atheroma [especially if thick (> 5 mm), protruding or ulcerated] or narrowing (especially with calcification and surface irregularities) of the abdominal thoracic aorta, severe "unfolding" and tortuosity of the thoracic aorta.
• Porcelain aorta.
• Complications with prior cardiac surgery (i.e., mediastinitis, prolonged intubation).
• Refuses blood products.
• Severe chest deformity (i.e., pectus excavatum, mastectomy, iatrogenic radiation exposure).
