Þetta svar er hluti af greininni Ábendingar og árangur ósæðarlokuísetningar með þræðingartækni (TAVI) á Íslandi sem birtist í Læknablaðinu (2021/107). Í greininni er komist að þeirri niðurstöðu að árangur TAVI-aðgerða hér á landi sé mjög góður, ekki síst þegar litið er til lágrar 30 daga dánartíðni og heildarlifunar sem var sambærileg og hjá viðmiðunarþýði. Auk þess var tíðni alvarlegra fylgikvilla lág. Áhugasamir eru hvattir til að kynna sér greinina í heild sinni. Tilvísanir:
