RESUMO
BACKGROUND: There is currently little evidence for transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral valve repair (TEER) for mitral regurgitation (MR) in patients with cardiogenic shock (CS). Therefore, this study investigated the characteristics and outcomes of CS patients who underwent TEER for MR. METHODS: PubMed, EMBASE were searched in July 2023. Case series and observational studies reporting clinical characteristics and outcomes in CS patients with MR who underwent TEER were included. We performed a one-group meta-analysis using a random effects model. RESULTS: A total of 4060 patients from 7 case series and 5 observational studies were included. The mean age was 68.2 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 64.1-72.2) years, and 41.4% of patients (95% CI: 39.1%-43.7%) were female. Pre-TEER, severe MR was present in 85.3% (95% CI: 76.1%-91.3%) of patients. Mean left ventricular ejection fraction was 36.7% (95% CI: 29.2%-44.2%), and 54.6% (95% CI: 36.9%-71.2%) of patients received mechanical circulatory support. The severity of MR post-TEER was less than 2+ in 88% (95% CI: 87%-89%) of patients. In-hospital mortality was 11% (95% CI: 10%-13%), whereas 30-day and 1-year mortality rates were 15% (95% CI: 13%-16%), and 36% (95% CI: 21%-54%), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: This systematic review and meta-analysis assessed the clinical characteristics and outcomes of TEER in CS patients with MR. TEER for MR in patients with CS has been successful in reducing MR in most of the patients, but with a high mortality rate. Randomized controlled trials of TEER for MR and CS are needed.

Previous research indicates varying stroke rates after mitral valve (MV) interventions. This study aimed to compare postprocedural stroke risks after transcatheter and surgical MV interventions. Electronic databases were searched from inception to February 2024 for studies comparing stroke rates after mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (mTEER), surgical MV repair/replacement, or guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT). Primary end points were all-time and early (<30 days) stroke. Secondary outcomes included new-onset atrial fibrillation and 1-year all-cause mortality. A frequentist network meta-analysis was employed to compare outcomes. The network meta-analysis included 18 studies (3 randomized controlled trials and 15 observational), with 51,703 patients. mTEER was associated with a decreased risk of all-time (odds ratio [OR] 0.61, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.41 to 0.89) and early stroke (OR 0.41, 95% CI 0.33 to 0.51) compared with surgery, and a similar risk of all-time (OR 1.54, 95% CI 0.76 to 3.12) and early stroke (OR 2.12, 95% CI 0.53 to 8.47) compared with GDMT. Conversely, surgery was associated with an increased risk of all-time (OR 2.55, 95% CI 1.17 to 5.57) and early stroke (OR 5.15, 95% CI 1.27 to 20.84) compared with GDMT. There were no statistically significant differences in the risk of new-onset atrial fibrillation (OR 0.38, 95% CI 0.11 to 1.31) and 1-year all-cause mortality (OR 1.43, 95% CI 0.91 to 2.24) between mTEER versus surgery. In conclusion, mTEER was associated with a lower risk of stroke and similar risks of new-onset atrial fibrillation and 1-year mortality compared with surgical MV interventions. Further studies are needed to understand the mechanisms of stroke and to determine strategies to reduce stroke risk after MV interventions.

BACKGROUND: Evidence is limited regarding the effectiveness of leadless pacemaker implantation for conduction disturbance following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). OBJECTIVES: This study sought to examine the national trends in the use of leadless pacemaker implantation following TAVR and compare its performance with transvenous pacemakers. METHODS: Medicare fee-for-service beneficiaries aged ≥65 years who underwent leadless or transvenous pacemakers following TAVR between 2017 and 2020 were included. Outcomes included in-hospital overall complications as well as midterm (up to 2 years) all-cause death, heart failure hospitalization, infective endocarditis, and device-related complications. Propensity score overlap weighting analysis was used. RESULTS: A total of 10,338 patients (730 leadless vs 9,608 transvenous) were included. Between 2017 and 2020, there was a 3.5-fold increase in the proportion of leadless pacemakers implanted following TAVR. Leadless pacemaker recipients had more comorbidities, including atrial fibrillation and end-stage renal disease. After adjusting for potential confounders, patients with leadless pacemakers experienced a lower rate of in-hospital overall complications compared with patients who received transvenous pacemakers (7.2% vs 10.1%; P = 0.014). In the midterm, we found no significant differences in all-cause death (adjusted HR: 1.13; 95% CI: 0.96-1.32; P = 0.15), heart failure hospitalization (subdistribution HR: 0.89; 95% CI: 0.74-1.08; P = 0.24), or infective endocarditis (subdistribution HR: 0.98; 95% CI: 0.44-2.17; P = 0.95) between the 2 groups, but leadless pacemakers were associated with a lower risk of device-related complications (subdistribution HR: 0.37; 95% CI: 0.21-0.64; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Leadless pacemakers are increasingly being used for conduction disturbance following TAVR and were associated with a lower rate of in-hospital complications and midterm device-related complications compared to transvenous pacemakers without a difference in midterm mortality.

BACKGROUND: Prior studies have reported decreased use of an invasive approach for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to determine whether prior TAVR affects the use of subsequent coronary revascularization and outcomes of AMI in a contemporary national data set. METHODS: Consecutive TAVR patients from 2016 to 2022 were identified from the U.S. Vizient Clinical Data Base who were hospitalized after the index TAVR hospitalization with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). Patients with STEMI or NSTEMI with or without prior TAVR from the same time period were compared for the use of coronary angiography, revascularization, and in-hospital outcomes. Propensity score matching was used to account for imbalances in patient characteristics. RESULTS: Among 206,229 patients who underwent TAVR, the incidence of STEMI was 25 events per 100,000 person-years of follow-up, and that of NSTEMI was 229 events per 100,000 person-years. After propensity matching, the use of coronary revascularization was similar in the prior TAVR and no TAVR cohorts in both the STEMI (65.3% vs 63.9%; P = 0.81) and NSTEMI (41.4% vs 41.7%; P = 0.88) subgroups. Compared with patients without prior TAVR, in-hospital mortality was higher in the prior TAVR cohort in patients with STEMI (27.1% vs 16.7%; P = 0.03) and lower in those with NSTEMI (5.8% vs 8.2%; P = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS: In this large, national retrospective study, AMI events after TAVR were infrequent. There were no differences in the use of coronary revascularization for STEMI or NSTEMI in TAVR patients compared with the non-TAVR population. In-hospital mortality for STEMI is higher in TAVR patients compared with those without prior TAVR.

Background: The choice of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) prosthesis is crucial in optimizing short- and long-term outcomes. The objective of this study was to conduct a meta-analysis comparing outcomes of third-generation balloon-expandable valves (BEV) vs self-expanding valves (SEV). Methods: Electronic databases were searched from inception to June 2023 for studies comparing third-generation BEV vs SEV. Primary outcome was all-cause mortality. Secondary outcomes included clinical and hemodynamic end points. Random-effects models were used to calculate pooled odds ratios (ORs) or weighted mean differences (WMDs). Results: The meta-analysis included 16 studies and 10,174 patients (BEV, 5753 and SEV, 4421). There were no significant differences in 1-year all-cause mortality (OR, 1.15; 95% CI, 0.89-1.48) between third-generation BEV vs SEV. TAVR with third generation BEV was associated with a significantly lower risk of TIA/stroke (OR, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.44-0.87), permanent pacemaker implantation (OR, 0.55; 95% CI, 0.44-0.70), and ≥moderate paravalvular leak (PVL, OR, 0.43; 95% CI, 0.25-0.75), and higher risk of ≥moderate patient-prosthesis mismatch (OR, 3.76; 95% CI, 2.33-6.05), higher mean gradient (WMD, 4.35; 95% CI, 3.63-5.08), and smaller effective orifice area (WMD, -0.30; 95% CI, -0.37 to -0.23), compared with SEV. Conclusion: In this meta-analysis, TAVR with third-generation BEV vs SEV was associated with similar all-cause mortality, lower risk of TIA/stroke, permanent pacemaker implantation, and ≥moderate PVL, but higher risk of ≥moderate patient-prosthesis mismatch, higher mean gradient, and smaller effective orifice area. Large, adequately powered randomized trials are needed to evaluate long-term outcomes of TAVR with latest generations of BEV vs SEV.
RESUMO
Background: Although variation in the management of patients with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) is well documented across US hospitals, few data exist characterizing variation in outcomes following specific management strategies. Methods: Admissions for NSTEMI to hospitals performing coronary angiography, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery between 2016 and 2018 were identified from the National Inpatient Sample. Patients were categorized according to treatment rendered (medical therapy alone, angiography without revascularization, PCI, or CABG). The primary end point was variation in the incidence of composite in-hospital death, postprocedure myocardial infarction, or stroke, stratified by treatment rendered. Secondary outcomes included variation in length of stay (LOS), cost, and use of each treatment modality. Variation was characterized by the median odds ratio. Results: Among 140,194 hospitalizations for NSTEMI, 35,748 (25.5%) patients received medical therapy alone, 28,678 (20.5%) underwent angiography without revascularization, 58,383 (41.6%) underwent PCI, and 17,385 (12.4%) underwent CABG. Despite adjusting for patient- and hospital-related factors, 2 similar patients were 25% more likely to experience the composite primary outcome following PCI and 45% more likely following CABG at 1 randomly selected hospital than at another. Significant hospital-level variations in LOS and cost were also apparent following each treatment modality. Conclusions: In a large national analysis of hospitalizations for NSTEMI, significant variation was observed in clinical outcome, LOS, and cost associated with each treatment modality, despite adjustment for patient- and hospital-related factors.
RESUMO
Background: Anemia is associated with increased mortality in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR); however, data on the effect of the severity of and recovery from anemia on clinical outcomes are limited. This study examined the impact of the severity of and recovery from anemia after TAVR. Methods: Patients with symptomatic, severe aortic stenosis across all surgical risk groups from the Placement of Aortic Transcatheter Valves (PARTNER) I, II, and III trials and registries who underwent TAVR were analyzed. Baseline anemia was defined as mild (hemoglobin [Hb] level ≥11.0 g/dL and <13.0 g/dL for men and ≥11.0 g/dL and <12.0 g/dL for women) and moderate-to-severe anemia (Hb level <11.0 g/dL). Recovery from anemia was defined as an increase of ≥1 g/dL in the Hb level. Patients with missing Hb information and major bleeding within 30 days were excluded. The association of the severity of and recovery from anemia with clinical outcomes was analyzed using multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models. The primary outcome was 1-year all-cause mortality. Results: The Kaplan-Meier estimate for 1-year all-cause mortality was 5.4%, 8.2%, and 14.5% in patients with no, mild, and moderate-to-severe anemia, respectively (P < .001). Recovery from anemia at 30 days occurred in 8.4% (229/2730) of all patients. Compared with those without baseline or 30-day anemia, patients with recovery from anemia had similar 1-year mortality (hazard ratio, 1.02; CI, 0.50-2.08; P = .96), whereas those without recovery from anemia had higher 1-year mortality (hazard ratio, 1.82; CI, 1.17-2.85; P = .009). Conclusions: In patients undergoing TAVR, moderate-to-severe anemia is independently associated with increased 1-year mortality, and recovery from anemia after TAVR is associated with favorable outcomes. Further efforts are needed to determine whether preprocedural correction of anemia improves post-TAVR outcomes.
