Heart valve patients: could lighter anesthesia mean going home sooner?
NCT ID NCT04107038
Summary
This study compared two types of anesthesia for patients getting a minimally invasive heart valve replacement (TAVR). Researchers wanted to see if using lighter 'monitored' anesthesia instead of full 'general' anesthesia would help patients leave the hospital faster and avoid the ICU. They enrolled 170 adults with aortic valve stenosis to measure hospital stay length, ICU admission rates, and safety.
