Abstract Background The presence of concomitant mitral regurgitation (MR) is a common issue in patients with severe aortic stenosis and negatively affects patient outcome. Available data regarding MR reduction due to aortic gradient reduction and left ventricular reverse remodeling after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) are contradictory. Purpose To investigate the prognostic impact of both pre- and post-procedural MR in patients undergoing TAVI. Methods Patients with severe and symptomatic aortic stenosis stenosis [effective orifice area (EOA)≤1cm2] referred for TAVI at our institution were consecutively enrolled. Prospectively collected demographic, laboratory and echocardiographic data were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were stratified into two groups according to MR severity : ≤ grade 1 were defined as non-significant and ≥ grade 2 as significant. Change in MR was determined by comparison between baseline and 30-day echocardiogram. Primary clinical endpoint was all-cause mortality, as defined by the criteria proposed by the Valve Academic Research Consortium2. Results 263 consecutive patients (136 men, mean age : 80 ± 7.5 years) were included in the analysis. Significant (grade≥2) MR was present in 65 (24,7%) patients, while 198 (75,3%) patients had mild or no ( ≤ grade 1) MR. Comparing the two groups, patients with significant MR had higher systolic pulmonary pressure (51.3 ± 14.6mmHg versus 42.8 ± 11.2mmHg, p < 0.001), lower ejection fraction (47.4 ± 10.8% versus 51.2 ± 8.2%) and were more dyspnoic (New York Heart Association class IV 18.5% vesrus 2.5%, p < 0.001). The primary clinical end point occurred in 63 (24%) patients during a follow-up period of 26.6 ± 26.8 months. Patients with significant pre-procedural MR displayed greater cumulative mortality (40% versus 18.8%, p = 0.001). Perioperative risk assessed by logistic EuroScore, NYHA class and pre-procedural MR were found to significantly associate to cumulative mortality in a univariate analysis. Performing a multivariable analysis demonstrated that preprocedural MR severity could independently predict cumulative mortality [OR 2.38, B = 0.869 (95% CI 1.2 – 4.6, p = 0.01)] (Figure). Conclusion Significant MR is not infrequent in patients undergoing TAVI and appears to independently associate with high increased all-cause mortality. Abstract P1812 Figure.

Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most common valvular lesion in transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) recipients. This study aims to assess the long-term prognostic impact of baseline MR in TAVI patients. Methods: Adult patients who underwent TAVI were identified in the French National Hospital Discharge Database. All-cause and cardiovascular mortality, stroke, and rehospitalization with heart failure (HF) were compared in TAVI patients with and without baseline MR and tricuspid regurgitation (TR), respectively; the associations of MR and TR with the outcomes were assessed by Cox regression. Results: Baseline MR was identified in 8240 TAVI patients. Patients with baseline MR have higher yearly incidence of all-cause mortality (HR: 1.192, 95% confidence interval CI: 1.125–1.263), cardiovascular mortality (HR: 1.313, 95%CI: 1.210–1.425), and rehospitalization for heart failure (HF) (HR: 1.411, 95%CI: 1.340–1.486) compared to those without, except for stroke rate (HR: 0.988, 95%CI: 0.868–1.124). Neither baseline MR nor TR was an independent risk predictor for all-cause mortality or cardiovascular mortality in TAVI patients. Baseline MR was independently associated with rehospitalization for HF in TAVI patients. Conclusions: Baseline MR and TR were associated with increased all-cause and cardiovascular mortality post-TAVI, however, neither of them was independent predictor for all-cause or cardiovascular mortality.

Abstract Aims  Owing to new evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in low-risk patients with severe aortic stenosis, we compared the collective safety and efficacy of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) vs. surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) across the entire spectrum of surgical risk patients. Methods and results  The meta-analysis is registered with PROSPERO (CRD42016037273). We identified RCTs comparing TAVI with SAVR in patients with severe aortic stenosis reporting at different follow-up periods. We extracted trial, patient, intervention, and outcome characteristics following predefined criteria. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality up to 2 years for the main analysis. Seven trials that randomly assigned 8020 participants to TAVI (4014 patients) and SAVR (4006 patients) were included. The combined mean STS score in the TAVI arm was 9.4%, 5.1%, and 2.0% for high-, intermediate-, and low surgical risk trials, respectively. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation was associated with a significant reduction of all-cause mortality compared to SAVR {hazard ratio [HR] 0.88 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.78–0.99], P = 0.030}; an effect that was consistent across the entire spectrum of surgical risk (P-for-interaction = 0.410) and irrespective of type of transcatheter heart valve (THV) system (P-for-interaction = 0.674). Transcatheter aortic valve implantation resulted in lower risk of strokes [HR 0.81 (95% CI 0.68–0.98), P = 0.028]. Surgical aortic valve replacement was associated with a lower risk of major vascular complications [HR 1.99 (95% CI 1.34–2.93), P = 0.001] and permanent pacemaker implantations [HR 2.27 (95% CI 1.47–3.64), P < 0.001] compared to TAVI. Conclusion  Compared with SAVR, TAVI is associated with reduction in all-cause mortality and stroke up to 2 years irrespective of baseline surgical risk and type of THV system.

Background: Mitral regurgitation (MR) is commonly encountered in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS). However, its independent impact on mortality in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has not been established. Methods: We performed a systematic search for studies reporting characteristics and outcome of patients with and without significant MR and/or adjusted mortality associated with MR post-TAVI. We conducted a meta-analysis of quantitative data. Results: Seventeen studies with 20,717 patients compared outcomes and group characteristics. Twenty-one studies with 32,257 patients reported adjusted odds of mortality associated with MR. Patients with MR were older, had a higher Society of Thoracic Surgeons score, lower left ventricular ejection fraction, a higher incidence of prior myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, and a trend towards higher NYHA class III/IV, but had similar mean gradient, gender, and chronic kidney disease. The MR patients had a higher unadjusted short-term (RR = 1.46, 95% CI 1.30–1.65) and long-term mortality (RR = 1.40, 95% CI 1.18–1.65). However, 16 of 21 studies with 27,777 patients found no association between MR and mortality after adjusting for baseline variables. In greater than half of the patients (0.56, 95% CI 0.45–0.66) MR improved by at least one grade following TAVI. Conclusion: The patients with MR undergoing TAVI have a higher burden of risk factors which can independently impact mortality. There is a lack of robust evidence supporting an increased mortality in MR patients, after adjusting for other compounding variables. MR tends to improve in the majority of patients post-TAVI.

The Impact

ObjectiveData on statin for patients with aortic stenosis (AS) who underwent transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) are limited. The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of statin on midterm mortality of TAVI patients.DesignObservational study.SettingThis study included patients with AS from a Japanese multicentre registry who underwent TAVI.ParticipantsThe overall cohort included 2588 patients (84.4±5.2 years); majority were women (69.3%). The Society of Thoracic Surgeons risk score was 6.55% (IQR 4.55%–9.50%), the Euro II score was 3.74% (IQR 2.34%–6.02%) and the Clinical Frailty Scale score was 3.9±1.2.InterventionsWe classified patients based on statin at admission and identified 936 matched pairs after propensity score matching.Primary and secondary outcome measuresThe outcomes were all-cause and cardiovascular mortality.ResultsThe median follow-up was 660 days. Statin at admission was associated with a significant reduction in all-cause mortality (adjusted HR (aHR) 0.76, 95% CI 0.58 to 0.99, p=0.04) and cardiovascular mortality (aHR 0.64, 95% CI 0.42 to 0.97, p=0.04). In the octogenarians, statin was associated with significantly lower all-cause mortality (aHR 0.87, 95% CI 0.75 to 0.99, p=0.04); however, the impact in the nonagenarians appeared to be lower (aHR 0.84, 95% CI 0.62 to 1.13, p=0.25). Comparing four groups according to previous coronary artery disease (CAD) and statin, there was a significant difference in all-cause mortality, and patients who did not receive statin despite previous CAD showed the worst prognosis (aHR 1.33, 95% CI 1.12 to 1.57 (patients who received statin without previous CAD as a reference), p<0.01).ConclusionsStatin for TAVI patients will be beneficial even in octogenarians, but the benefits may disappear in nonagenarians. In addition, statin will be essential for TAVI patients with CAD. Further research is warranted to confirm and generalise our findings since this study has the inherent limitations of an observational study and included only Japanese patients.Trial registration numberUMIN000020423.

Abstract Background Outcomes for different subtypes of aortic stenosis defined by transvalvular flow and gradient after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) are still subjects of debate. Purpose The aim of the study was to evaluate the prognostic impact of the initial transvalvular flow rate and aortic mean gradient on survival and to assess the changes of left ventricular function after TAVI. Patients and Methods From 2008. to 2017.06.30. TAVI was performed in 300 cases in our Institute (127 men, 173 women, mean age 80,0 ± 5,8 years) with severe (aortic valve area &lt;1,0 cm²) symptomatic aortic stenosis (AS) and contraindication or high risk for surgery. Median time for follow-up was 28 (0-115) months, Echocardiography was performed before and 12 months after TAVI. Patients were divided into four groups according to flow (F) , aortic mean gradient (Gr) and ejection fraction (EF): HG Gr ≥ 40 mmHg (n = 237) LF-LG : F ≤ 35 ml/m2, Gr &lt; 40 mmHg and EF &lt; 50% (n = 41) PLF-LG: F ≤ 35 ml/m2, Gr &lt; 40 mmHg and EF ≥50% (n = 9) NF-LG: F &gt; 35 ml/m2 and Gr &lt; 40 mmHg (n = 13) Our primary objective was the analysis of 30-day, 1-year and 3-year all-cause mortality of these groups, secondary goal was to observe the changes in EF after 12 months in the survivors. Results In the whole patient group 30-day all-cause mortality was 4,3%, 1-year 17,0% and 3-year 62,0%. The NFLG group had the most favourable outcomes (mortality: 30d 0, 1-year: 7,7%, 3-year: 46,2%). Mortality was low in the HG group in the 1st year (30-day: 3,8%, 1-y: 14,3%), but it increased to 62,8% at 3-year. Mortality rates were intermediate in the PLF-LG group (30-day 0, 1-year 22,2%, 3-year 55,6%) and were the highest in LF-LG (30-day 12,2%, p = 0,03 vs HG, 1-year 34,2% p = 0,005 vs. HG, 3-year 75,6%). Among clinical and echocardiographic variables only moderate or severe paravalvular aortic regurgitation (p = 0,03) and severe renal dysfunction (GFR &lt;30 ml/min, p = 0,02) were independent predictors of all-cause 1-year mortality. In patients with severe (EF &lt; 30%) , moderate (EF 30-40%) or mild ( EF 41-50%) systolic dysfunction the EF improved after TAVI (23,5 ± 3,5% vs. 30,3 ± 7,9% p &lt; 0,001, 33,6 ±3,6% vs. 43,0 ± 10,5% p = 0,003, 45,5 ± 3,1% vs. 54,3 ± 8,7% p &lt; 0,001) regardless of the initial flow and gradient subtype of AS. Conclusions Low flow-low gradient aortic stenosis is associated with worse short or long term prognosis after TAVI, therefore this subtype of AS needs detailed risk stratification before-, and careful management after TAVI. Improvement of initial left ventricular dysfuncion can be expected after TAVI.
