The predictors of the length of hospital stay (LOS) in older adults undergoing the transapical transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TA TAVI) remained under-explored. The objective of this study was to identify patient’s individual characteristics, TA TAVI procedural details, and relevant post-procedure factors that were predictive of LOS after TA TAVI. A retrospective review of 128 consecutive medical charts was conducted, and 62 potential predictor variables were analyzed by utilizing various statistical analyses. This study identified five individual characteristics, procedural details, and post-procedure factors that were statistically significantly associated with the LOS following TA TAVI. Its findings may alert nurses to heed the implications of these predictors in TA TAVI patients and initiate nursing interventions to reduce the risk of prolonged LOS related complications. Future studies are recommended to confirm these findings and the effects of other potential predictors. ; aortic stenosis, transapical transcatheter aortic valve implantation, length of stay, hospital stay |
