Described herein is a guide wire that includes one, two or multiple pressure transducers for use in TAVI. The guide wire may include an aortic pressure sensor spaced from a left ventricular pressure sensor with sufficient length to allow the aortic pressure sensor to be located in the aorta while the ventricular pressure sensor is simultaneously located in the left ventricle. The pressure readings between the left ventricle and aorta may be subtracted to determine an improved indication of the prognosis of a patient with intermediate post-TAVR aortic regurgitation after assessment with transesophageal echocardiography.
