Abstract
Thai Guidelines for Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) were initiated by the Thai Heart Association, Society of Thoracic Surgeons of Thailand, and Cardiovascular Intervention Association of Thailand. There are several factors in Thailand that differ from western countries, such as patient life expectancy, the types of available TAVI valves, socio-economic status, and experiences in TAVI. Therefore, Thailand-specific guidelines would be of great benefit for Thai patients. The objectives of the guidelines are to provide update recommendations regarding best practice in patients undergoing TAVI in Thailand, to emphasize the importance of a multidisciplinary heart valve team, and to emphasize the importance of data collection and follow up in patients undergoing TAVI for quality improvement. Classes of recommendation were based on standard classification and level of evidence. Recommendations were categorized into recommendation for multidisciplinary heart valve team, for perioperative risk assessment, for patient selection, for antithrombotic treatment after TAVI, for hospital and operator requirement, and for TAVI data collection.
