Canadian TAVR Triage Tool (CAN3T) for Wait-list Management in Aortic Stenosis: a Stepped-Wedged Cluster Randomized Registry-Based Trial
FY 2024-25
Summary
Severe Aortic stenosis (AS) is caused by thickening of the leaftlets of the aortic valve, restricting blood flow. Without treatment it has a very poor outlook. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI/TAVR) is a novel minimally invasive therapy to treat AS. However, there are long wait-times for TAVI with poor outcomes while waiting.
The Canadian TAVR Triage Tool (CAN3T) was developed to aid with wait-time management through a more evidence based triage of patients.
In this trial, we are conducting a randomized control trial comparing status quo wait-time management, with that incorporating the CAN3T into the TAVI clinic work-flow. The trial is novel as it uses data collected routinely in Ontario as part of the CorHealth registry.

Abstract
Severe Aortic stenosis (AS) is caused by thickening of the leaftlets of the aortic valve, restricting blood flow. Without treatment it has a very poor outlook. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI/TAVR) is a novel minimally invasive therapy to treat AS. However, there are long wait-times for TAVI with poor outcomes while waiting.
The Canadian TAVR Triage Tool (CAN3T) was developed to aid with wait-time management through a more evidence based triage of patients.
In this trial, we are conducting a randomized control trial comparing status quo wait-time management, with that incorporating the CAN3T into the TAVI clinic work-flow. The trial is novel as it uses data collected routinely in Ontario as part of the CorHealth registry.
