ABSTRACT
Background:
Increased left atrial pressure (LAP) has been associated with adverse outcomes after mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER). We sought to evaluate outcomes based on differences in post-procedural LAP measured after final clip deployment.Methods:
We included consecutive patients who underwent M-TEER at our institution between 2014-2022 with LAP monitoring. Patients were stratified into 3 groups according to tertiles of post-TEER mean LAP. Outcomes were assessed using Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox proportional hazard models.Results:
We included 273 patients (mean age 76.8±10.8 years, 42.5% women, 78.4% Caucasian). The mean post-TEER LAP was 8.7±1.7 mmHg in tertile 1 (N=85), 14.4±1.6 mmHg in tertile 2 (N=95), and 21.9±3.8 mmHg in tertile 3 (N=93). In comparison with tertile 1, both tertiles 2 and 3 were associated with increased risk of all-cause mortality or heart failure hospitalization at 2 years (adjHR 2.27, 95% CI 1.25-4.12; and adjHR 3.00, 95% CI 1.59-5.64 respectively). Among patients with primary MR, higher LAP was associated with increased risk of 2-year all-cause mortality or heart failure hospitalization [tertile 2 vs. 1 adjHR 3.00, 95% CI 1.37-6.56; and tertile 3 vs. 1 adjHR 5.52, 95% CI 2.04-14.95). However, in patients with secondary MR, neither being in tertile 2 (adjHR 1.53; 95% CI 0.55-4.24), nor tertile 3 (adjHR 2.18; 95% CI 0.82-5.77) were associated with the composite outcome compared with tertile 1. Any degree of LAP reduction following M-TEER was associated with lower mortality or heart failure hospitalization compared with no LAP reduction (adjHR 0.59; 95% CI 0.39-0.88).Conclusions:
Elevated LAP after M-TEER was associated with increased 2-year risk of mortality or heart failure hospitalization. Exploration of reasons for elevated LAP after M-TEER, and ways to lower it warrant further investigation.
