Comparison of general anaesthesia and non-general anaesthesia approach in transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve implantation

Heart Apr 08, 2018

Eskandari M, et al. - The impact on procedural outcome, 30-day and 1-year mortality of general anesthesia (GA) vs non-GA approaches in transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) was determined using data from the UK TAVI registry for patients. These patients were implanted using either an Edwards Sapien or a Medtronic CoreValve prosthesis. A total of 2243 patients were studied.
