Key result
Surgical cut down for femoral arterial access with conscious sedation during transcatheter aortic valve replacement resulted in a 0.7% major vascular complication rate and 2.2% 30-day mortality.

What are the rates of vascular complications and mortality associated with surgical cut down for femoral access with conscious sedation during transcatheter aortic valve replacement?
Surgical cut down for femoral access with conscious sedation during TAVR is associated with a very low rate of major vascular complications (<1%) and low 30-day mortality.
Cardounel et al. (2018) conducted a cohort in Severe aortic stenosis (n=282). Surgical cut down for femoral access with conscious sedation was evaluated on Major vascular complications. Surgical cut down for femoral arterial access with conscious sedation during transcatheter aortic valve replacement resulted in a 0.7% major vascular complication rate and 2.2% 30-day mortality.
