O2 Tension During TAVI
O2 Tension During TAVI
Hyperoxemia can produce various complications including oxidative stress and myocardial
 injury. We hypothesized that the normoxic group would have lower myocardial injury compared
 to hyperoxic group after transcatheter aortic valve replacement.
Hyperoxemia can produce various complications, such as excessive oxidative stress,
 hyperoxia-induced vasoconstriction, increased perfusion heterogeneity, and resultant
 myocardial injury. Previous studies have been observed higher mortality in patient group
 maintained with supranormal oxygenation after resuscitation from cardiac arrest. However, the
 effect of hyperoxia vs. normoxia on myocardial injury during transcatheter aortic valve
 replacement (TAVR) has not been well investigated. We hypothesized that the normoxic group
 would have lower myocardial injury compared to hyperoxic group after TAVR.
