Zusammenfassung: | Abstract Vascular complications in Transfemoral Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI-TF) are related to higher mortality. Complete percutaneous approach is currently the preferred technique for vascular access. However, some centers still perform surgical cutdown. Our purpose was to determine complications related to vascular access technique in the population of the Spanish TAVI National Registry. Between January 2010 and July 2015, 3046 patients were included in this Registry. Of them, 2465 underwent transfemoral approach and were treated with either surgical cutdown and closure (Cutdown group, n=632) or percutaneous approach (Puncture group, n=1833). VARC-2 definitions were used to assess vascular and bleeding complications. Propensity matching resulted in 615 matched pairs. Overall, 30-day vascular complications were significantly higher in the Puncture group (109[18%] vs 42[6.9%]; RR 2.60; 95% CI [1.85-3.64], p |
