Brief Summary

TAVI has become a credible alternative to conventional cardiac surgery in aged high-risk patients with aortic valve stenosis. A large part of these procedures are performed with sedation using remifentanil target-controlled infusion plus local anesthesia. However, a significant proportion of the patients experience postoperative delirium, with subsequent worsened outcomes, time-consuming interventions, and increased costs. The use of hypnosis before and during TAVI could decrease the incidence of postoperative delirium thanks to less opioids and hypnotics consumption. Thus, the investigators ought to evaluate the potential advantages of hypnosis vs. remifentanil target controlled-infusion during TAVI procedures.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Occurrence of a postoperative delirium episode

    Assessment of the level of postoperative confusion will be measured at the CAM-ICU (Confusion Assessment Method Intensive Care Unit) scale. The CAM-ICU scale is a questionnaire based on 4 items. The diagnosis of delirium requires the presence of 3 of the 4 criteria. Criteria 1 and 2 are still required, with criteria 3 or 4.

    72 hours

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of intraoperative complications

    72 hours

Other Outcomes (11)

  • Length of the procedures

    72 hours

  • Comfort felt by the patient

    72 hours

  • Operator comfort

    72 hours

  • +8 more other outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Hypnosis arm

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

TAVI procedures will be either Medtronic Corevalve, or Edwards Sapien implantations, at operator's discretion. All procedures will be supervised by one of the two senior interventional cardiologists. Hypnosis sessions will be performed by two trained anesthesiologists, and Remifentanil sedations will be administered by the rest of the anesthesiologists staff. Postoperative care will be provided in the CICU for the 3 first postoperative days at least.

Procedure: TAVI : Transcatether Aortic Valve Implantation
