Welcome to the Benchmark Registry Website

Setting a Benchmark for Resource Utilization and Quality of Care in Patients undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation in Europe:

The BENCHMARK Registry

Non-interventional, multi-center, international registry in patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04579445

Background

The use of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for treating aortic stenosis (AS) has increased exponentially in recent years. Despite the availability of clinical practice guidelines for the management of valvular heart disease, disparities in quality of care (QoC) for TAVI patients remain widespread across Europe. Tailored QoC measures will help to reduce resource utilization and improve patient outcomes without compromising patient safety. Using a clear set of QoC measures, the BENCHMARK registry aims to document the progress that can be achieved if such tailored QoC measures are implemented.
