This paper discusses haemostatic changes and outcomes associated with transcatheter aortic valve implantation for aortic stenosis.
The management of aortic stenosis (AS) has undergone a paradigm shift with the advent of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Inintially established as an effective alternative for high-...

Trung et al. (2025) conducted an observational in Severe aortic stenosis (n=117). Elevation in white blood cell count post-TAVI was evaluated on Mortality during follow-up (HR 1.51, 95% CI 1.13-2.01, p=0.05). An increase in white blood cell levels immediately following transcatheter aortic valve implantation was associated with a higher risk of mortality (HR 1.51).
