NMAHPP Research at GSTT (Heart, Lung & Critical Care)’s Post

New from Royal Brompton and Harefield hospitals cardiology and #TAVI team including David Smith, Suzy Browne, Pottle Alison, Mark Bowers, Ian McGovern, Thomas F. Lüscher & Miles Dalby that describes shared decision making in patients with #aortic stenosis. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is an alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement for patients with aortic valve stenosis. The choice between TAVI, surgery, or a conservative approach should be based upon multiple factors including clinical considerations, technical feasibility, and informed patient preference. In this context, engaging patients in a shared decision-making (SDM) process becomes essential, but this practice is generally underused. #cardiology #consent #cardiacsurgery #choices #patientled #decision
