Figure 2 Device coaxiality measurement.
On a still frame, immediately after deployment while still under rapid pacing, a line is drawn connecting neighboring valve struts on the ventricular side of the device (yellow line). Next, a perpendicular line is drawn from the yellow line to the tip of the strut that appears the deepest (red line). The length of this red line is recorded as device lack of coaxiality.
