In patients with severe AS, there is a weak association between hemodynamic parameters measured by LHC and RHC. RHC measurements alone are not suitable for risk stratification with respect to one-year mortality. If analysis of hemodynamic parameters is necessary in patients with severe AS scheduled for TAVI, measurement results of LHC and RHC should be combined and LVEDP could serve as a helpful indicator for risk assessment.
