Article Synopsis
- TAVI is a procedure designed for patients with severe aortic stenosis, particularly those who are frail, but frailty can lead to worse outcomes after the procedure.
- This systematic review analyzed studies to evaluate the effectiveness of Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) and interventions related to it in improving outcomes for older adults undergoing TAVI.
- The review found limited evidence on the effectiveness of CGA, highlighting a need for better-designed trials to understand its impact on post-TAVI outcomes for frail older adults.
