English
Authors' objectives:
To update a previous report on the safety, effectiveness, and cost-effectiveness of TAVI, published in
2012.
Authors' recommendations:
The findings of the 2-year follow-up with respect to mortality and adverse events were consistent with
those of the 1-year follow-up. TAVI was also associated with improvement in quality of life, although
results varied by cohort. Consistent with the 2012 report, TAVI may be cost-effective for patients who are
not candidates for surgery.
