Core Tip |
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) results in increases in serum C reactive protein (CRP) levels reaching a peak at day 3 in all patients. CRP increase is further increased in patients with diabetes mellitus, those that underwent pre-TAVI balloon aortic valvuloplasty and patients that suffered major vascular complications. In addition to the bedside evaluation of patients, careful attention should be paid to baseline clinical characteristics and procedural factors when interpreting CRP to aid in the management and risk assessment of patients following TAVI. |
