Review[Transcutaneous aortic valve implantation: Anesthetic and perioperative management].
To describe the perioperative management, from the point of view of the anesthesia-intensive care unit specialist, of patients with aortic stenosis who undergo transcatheter aortic valve implantation (femoral or apical TAVI). ⋯ TAVI expands treatment options for patients with aortic valve stenosis. The anaesthesia team must be involved in the care of these patients with the same level of expertise and care as in heart surgery on critical patients.

Hip fracture is a major health burden due to both its frequency and its deep impact on patient's outcome. The key issue of this poor outcome seems to be cardiac complications. The onset of these cardiac complications seems to appear early in the clinical course in the form of perioperative myocardial ischemia that are both preventable and treatable. Their clinical and electrocardiographic pattern is very poor and they can be thoroughly detected by only either a systematic electrocardiographic 12 lead monitoring or troponin dosage.
