The general rules of antibiotic prophylaxis in surgery or interventional medicine include the choice of an antibiotic active on the bacteria most frequently encountered in surgical site infections. This antibiotic must cover, the bacteria present on the skin and recognized as responsible for surgical site infections.
The aim of this study is to identify bacteria found in skin flora in the inguinal region of patients undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI). Flora found will allow to evaluate the impact of skin preparation and antibiotic prophylaxis protocols as they are currently practiced.
234 studies on the registry are indexed under Aortic Valve Disease; 70 are open to participants now.

Ran from Jun 2021 to primary completion in Feb 2022, 8 months.
Of 47 non-industry observational studies under Aortic Valve Disease, half reached primary completion within 49 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 23 and three quarters within 147. This study's 8 months is below that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 56 studies reached it within 49 months; a quarter within 23 and three quarters within 97.
