Mashup Score: 1
BACKGROUND: Real-world low-risk transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) outcomes in the United States have not been assessed comprehensively versus pivotal trials, which is a key component of measuring the quality of clinical technology adoption. METHODS: We identified heart team–designated low-risk patients undergoing TAVR for trileaflet severe, symptomatic aortic stenosis in the Society of Thoracic Surgeons/American College of Cardiology Transcatheter Valve Registry, as well as a subset of patients who met low-risk trial inclusion and exclusion criteria, from January 2020 to March 2024. Outcomes (mortality, stroke, new pacemaker, and “alive and well,” defined as alive at 1 year with Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire score ≥60 and ≤10-point decrease from baseline) at 30 days and 1 year were assessed. Multivariable models were developed to assess predictors of death within 1 year after TAVR. RESULTS: Among 383 030 patients who underwent TAVR during the study period, 108 40

Mashup Score: 4Effect of TAVI on Epicardial Functional Indices and Their Relationship to Coronary Microvascular Function | Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions - 1 month(s) ago
BACKGROUND: The anatomic and physiological changes associated with severe aortic stenosis may influence the functional evaluation of coronary stenoses. In this study, we aimed to assess changes in functional resting and hyperemic indices before and immediately after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and their relationship with microvascular resistance. METHODS: In this pooled analysis of 3 prospective observational studies, fractional flow reserve (FFR), resting full-cycle ratio (RFR), and resting Pd/Pa were measured in patients with severe aortic stenosis before and after TAVI in the left anterior descending artery. Coronary microcirculation was also assessed using thermodilution-based methods, with microvascular resistance reserve (cutoff ≤3) used to identify coronary microvascular dysfunction. RESULTS: A total of 126 patients were included. Baseline Pd/Pa, RFR, and FFR measurements were 0.93±0.04, 0.90±0.07, and 0.89±0.07, respectively. Immediately post-TAVI, a small bu

Mashup Score: 0
The angiography-derived FFR-guided comprehensive PCI strategy, encompassing revascularisation decision making and stent optimisation, was non-inferior to intravascular ultrasound guidance. This finding might have implications for future guidelines on its role and application.

Mashup Score: 3
Background The “weekend effect” on hospital admissions has been extensively studied, showing increased risks for patients admitted on weekends than those admitted on weekdays. We aimed to assess the “weekend effect” on in-hospital outcomes in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Methods A nationwide cohort study was conducted using the National Inpatient Sample Database. We identified 82,094 eligible patients aged ≥ 18 years admitted for TAVR between 2013 and 2021. Patients were grouped into weekend or weekday cohorts based on day of admission. Propensity score matching (PSM) and multivariate regression models were employed to evaluate outcomes. After PSM, 2,688 weekend admissions and 13,440 weekday admissions were included in the analyses. Results Multivariable regression, adjusted for propensity score, revealed that weekend admission was associated with 45% higher odds of in-hospital mortality (adjusted odds ratio: 1.45; 95% confidence interval: 1.13–1.8
