We identified risk factors for infection following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI); infection occurred in 35 (13.8%) of 253 patients. Variables associated with infection included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (OR, 1.2; 95% CI, 1.1–1.4), postprocedural hemorrhage (OR, 1.2; 95% CI, 1.0–1.3), and procedure-related stroke (OR, 1.6; 95% CI, 1.3–2.1).Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol 2016;37:1094–1097
