Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a much less invasive treatment for aortic stenosis than open heart surgery. Currently approved for intermediate and high-risk patients, it will likely soon be approved for low-risk patients. It is often performed under local anaesthesia and sedation. Most patients are discharged home within 24 hours.
