“…[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] Compared with SAVR, transfemoral TAVI reduced mortality and stroke, life threatening bleeds, atrial fibrillation, and acute kidney injury at two years, but increased heart failure, major vascular complications, pacemaker insertion, and need for aortic valve reintervention within 2 years (see infographic). 10 In contrast, transapical TAVI may increase mortality and stroke compared with the surgical approach. The results for mortality, stroke, and acute kidney injury were based on a subgroup analysis for transfemoral versus transapical approach, deemed credible by the review authors according to specific criteria.…”
