Popis: Patients with severe aortic stenosis and low mean transvalvular gradient have poor outcomes, with an estimated 30 day post-surgical Aortic Valve Replacement (AVR) mortality of 21%. Low Dose Dobutamine Stress Echocardiography (LD-DSE) is performed in these patients for further risk stratification by
