The number of subjects undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement to treat aortic stenosis have been increasing in recent decades. Levosimendan, an innovative inotrope, is powerfully evidenced to have the function to improve cardiac output and hemodynamic parameters. However, there is no specified study concentrated on the role of Levosimendan in surgical procedure such as transcathter aortic intervention. This double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study is aimed to investigate the effectiveness and safety of Levosimendan in adults having severe aortic stenosis combined with heart failure undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement. Therefore, the purpose of this trial is to explore whether the improvement of cardiac and renal performance can be rendered by intra-operative Levosimendan infusion.
