[Management of non-rhythmic complications of TAVI procedures]. Ann Cardiol Angeiol (Paris). 2019 Oct 29;: Authors: Nejjari M, Cacoub L, Digne F Abstract Transcatheter aortic valve (TAVI) is the treatment of choice in patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis at high surgical risk. Recent data have also shown favorable results in patients considered to have an intermediate operative risk, which broadens the application of this new technology. Despite its success, the TAVI procedure has been associated with life-threatening complications. Advances in preoperative screening and patient selection have reduced the incidence of these complications. When these complications occur, early recognition and rapid management are essential. The purpose of this review is to describe non-rhythmic mechanical complications attributable to TAVI procedures with their predictive factors, how to prevent and manage them.
