متن کاملLeft ventricular remodeling after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI)
Background Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) offers a minimal invasive option for the treatment of patients with severe aortic stenosis at high risk for conventional surgery. The objective of this study was to investigate whether there is a positive effect on the left ventricular remodeling 6 month after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) using cardiac magnetic resonanc...
متن کاملAntithrombotic treatment in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is an established treatment option for symptomatic patients with severe aortic valvular disease who are not suitable for conventional surgical aortic valve replacement. Despite improving experience and techniques, ischaemic and bleeding complications after TAVI remain prevalent and impair survival in this generally old and comorbid-rich population....
متن کاملTranscatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI): risky and costly.
