About this study

Official title: INfecTive ENdocarditis After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) a National SwEdish Study (INTENSE)

This study aims at studying the frequency of infective endocarditis after transcatheter aortic valve replacement/implantation

Read the detailed description

Since the start of transcatheter aortic valve implnatations/replacements (TAVR/TAVI) implantations in Sweden in 2008 all procedures have been added to a national database, which now contains 4500+ procedures. At the same time, all admissions to the hospital is also recorded with diagnosis in a separate database. We intend to make a nation-wide complete follow up of all TAVR/TAVI patients in swede that has received the diagnosis of infective endocarditis after the implantation. In addition data will also be collected from the national endocarditis database for detailed information of the cases.
