All-cause mortality: all deaths from any cause after valve intervention. This includes all cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular deaths.
Disabling Stroke: a modified rankin (mRS) score of 2 or more at 90 days and an increase in at least one mRS category from an individual's pre-strike baseline.
Secondary Outcome Measures :

Utilities range from 0 to 1, with 1 representing perfect health, and 0 corresponding to the worst imaginable health state.

Prosthetic Valve Dysfunction (PVD) was defined according to Valve Academic Research Consortium (VARC) II using the Core Lab Echocardiography assessments including aortic regurgitation (AR) and aortic stenosis (AS) evaluations. Total aortic regurgitation (AR) reported as moderate or severe was considered
PVD defined as:

- moderate or severe total AR

- Percentage of Participants With Time-Related Safety [ Time Frame: 30 days, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, and 24 months. Data for 3-5 years will be posted once data is available. ]The VARC II time-related valve safety composite was defined as the rate of valve-related dysfunction (mean aortic valve gradient ≥ 20 mm Hg, EOA ≤ 0.9-1.1 cm2 depending on body surface area and/or DVI <0.35, AND/ OR moderate or severe prosthetic valve regurgitation), aortic valve reintervention, prosthetic valve endocarditis, prosthetic valve thrombosis, thromboembolic events, and VARC II bleeding events.
- Resheath and Recapture Success (Evolut R Only) [ Time Frame: Procedure ]The Evolut™ R system provides operators with the ability to resheath or recapture the valve before it is completely deployed in the event of initial suboptimal positioning. Successful resheath was defined as successfully retrieving a portion of the valve into the capsule of the delivery catheter, and successful recapture was defined as successfully recapturing the entirety of the valve into the capsule of the delivery catheter.
