RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: delirium is an event leading to negative health outcomes and increased mortality in patients. The aim of this study is to investigate the incidence, determinants and consequences of post-operative delirium (POD) in older patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). METHODS: The TAVI Care and Cure program is a prospective, observational registry in patients referred for TAVI at Erasmus University Medical Centre. The presence of delirium was evaluated by daily clinical assessment by a geriatrician pre- and up to 3 days post-TAVI. Mortality data were obtained from the Dutch Civil Registry. RESULTS: A total of 543 patients underwent TAVI between January 2014 and December 2017. Overall, the incidence of POD was 14% (75/543 patients) but declined from 18% in 2014 to 7% in 2017 (P = 0.009). Patients who developed POD were older (81.9 ± 5.8 versus 78.6 ± 8.3 years, P < 0.001), had higher prevalence of renal dysfunction and prior stroke (54% versus 40%, P = 0.02; 31% versus 18%, P = 0.01) and were more often frail (32% versus 25%, P = 0.02). From a procedural perspective, general anesthesia (odds ratios (OR), 2.31; 95% CI, 1.40-3.83; P = 0.001), non-transfemoral access (OR, 2.37; 95% CI, 1.20-4.70; P = 0.01) and longer procedural time (OR, 1.01; 95% CI, 1.01-1.02; P < 0.001) were significantly associated with POD. One-year survival rate was 68% among patients who had suffered a POD and was 85% in patients without a POD (hazard ratio's 1.8 (95% CI 1.01-3.10), P = 0.045). CONCLUSION: POD frequently occurs after TAVI and is associated with increased mortality. It might be speculated that patient selection and the minimalistic approach of TAVI may reduce the frequency of delirium.

BACKGROUND: Since the early 2000s the treatment of choice for an acute myocardial infarction has moved from thrombolytic therapy to primary PCI (pPCI). As a result, the majority of patients undergoing PCI shifted from stable angina pectoris (SA) to acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Additionally the previously observed association between depression and anxiety and long-term outcome in patients who underwent a PCI may have been changed. The main objective of this study was to investigate the predictive value of depression and anxiety for 10-year mortality, in a cohort with post-PCI patients treated for SA versus patients treated for ACS. METHODS: This prospective single center cohort consists of a consecutive series of patients (n=528) treated with PCI. At 1month post-PCI, patients completed the Dutch version of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). RESULTS: After adjustment for baseline characteristics depression was associated with higher 10-year mortality post-PCI (HR 1.58 95% Confidence Interval [95% CI] 1.04-2.40). In the ACS population no association between depression and 10-year mortality was found (HR 1.05 95% CI 0.62-1.79), in contrast to the SA population (HR 1.97 95% CI 1.09-3.57). After additional adjustment for anxiety, depression was no longer associated with higher mortality. CONCLUSIONS: Anxiety at baseline was associated with an increased 10-year mortality rate after PCI. Depression was also associated with higher 10-year mortality, however the association disappeared after additional adjustment for anxiety. This finding was more pronounced in patients presenting with SA as compared to those presenting with ACS, which might be a result of the increasing number of ACS patients treated with pPCI.

BACKGROUND: Poor subjective health status significantly predicted short-term mortality in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the relation between subjective health status and long-term mortality remains limited in patients treated with PCI. The aim of this study is to investigate the association between subjective health status and 14-year mortality in patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS: A consecutive cohort with 1111 patients treated for CAD who completed the SF-36 questionnaire was included between 2001 and 2002 as part of the RESEARCH registry. RESULTS: After adjustment, physical functioning (HR: 1.96; 95% CI: 1.59-2.43), social functioning (HR: 1.53; 95% CI: 1.24-1.88), role limitations due to physical functioning (HR: 1.75; 95% CI: 1.41-2.16), role limitations due to emotional functioning (HR: 1.34; 95%CI: 1.08-1.67), mental health (HR: 1.52; 95% CI: 1.24-1.88), vitality (HR: 1.66; 95% CI: 1.35-2.03), bodily pain (HR: 1.63; 95% CI: 1.32-2.02) and general health (HR: 1.82; 95% CI: 1.49-2.23) were all associated with an increased risk of 14-year mortality. CONCLUSION: Physical and mental subjective health status as measured with the SF-36 appeared to be a strong predictor for 14-year mortality in post-PCI patients.

BACKGROUND: It remains unclear whether feelings of being disabled are a relevant psychological factor that determines long term outcome after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Therefore, we evaluated 'feelings of being disabled' as an independent risk factor for mortality 12years post-PCI. METHODS: The study population comprised a consecutive series of CAD patients (n=845) treated with PCI as part of the Taxus-Stent Evaluated At Rotterdam Cardiology Hospital (T-SEARCH) registry. Of these patients n=646 (age 63years, 75% male) completed the subscale 'feelings of being disabled' of the Heart Patients Psychological Questionnaire (HPPQ), within the first month after PCI. RESULTS: At 12year follow-up, n=209 patients (32%) died. Of the 162 females n=73 (45%) experienced high feelings of being disabled (High-FOBD) and of the 484 males, n=134 (28%) reported high-FOBD. Patients with high feelings of being disabled had a two-fold increased risk of mortality at 12-year follow-up (HR=1.86, 95% CI=1.41-2.45). After adjusting, high feelings of being disabled remained a predictor of 12-year mortality (HR=2.53, 95% CI=1.30-4.90). CONCLUSIONS: This study confirms that psychosocial variables like feelings of being disabled influence cardiac morbidity and mortality. Furthermore, there is no difference in mortality between men and women with high feelings of being disabled 12years post-PCI. It is important that clinicians are aware that PCI-patients who feel disabled have a less favorable survival and that the difference in survival is even greater for women who feel disabled.
