Caglayan Demirel

Dr. Caglayan Demirel is a researcher in the Department of Cardiology at the Medical University of Vienna's Faculty of Medicine. His work focuses on cardiovascular interventions, particularly transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and mixed aortic valve disease (MAVD). He leads studies analyzing long-term outcomes of TAVR patients, emphasizing the prognostic significance of MAVD and paravalvular regurgitation. His research integrates clinical outcomes with anatomical and physiological parameters to improve patient care.

His publications address critical areas such as cerebrovascular risks post-TAVI, long-term coronary interventions after TAVR, and frailty assessments using body composition metrics. These studies highlight the interdisciplinary nature of his work, combining cardiology with surgical and geriatric perspectives.

Dr. Demirel is affiliated with the Vienna TAVR Registry and collaborates with international teams on precision medicine in cardiovascular care. His current focus includes optimizing intervention timing and minimizing complications in high-risk patients.
