Abstract
BACKGROUND New onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) is a common occurrence after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and portends a poorer prognosis. The optimal strategy for managing NOAF in this population is uncertain. METHODS This retrospective cohort study utilized deidentified patient data from the TriNetX Research Network. Patients with TAVR and NOAF were stratified into a rhythm control cohort if they were treated with antiarrhythmics, received AF ablation, or underwent cardioversion within 1 year of AF diagnosis. A rate control cohort was similarly defined by the absence of rhythm control strategies and treatment with a beta blocker, calcium channel blocker, or digoxin. After 1:1 propensity score matching, the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Cox proportional hazard ratios (HRs) were used to compare outcomes at 7 years of follow-up. RESULTS We identified 569 patients in each cohort following propensity matching. At 7 years, the primary composite outcome of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident, and heart failure hospitalization was not significantly different between the rhythm and rate control cohorts (HR 0.99, 95% CI 0.83-1.18). The individual components of the primary outcome in addition to all-cause hospitalization were also similar between the groups. CONCLUSIONS Similar outcomes were seen among patients receiving an early rhythm or rate control strategy to manage NOAF after TAVR. The attenuated benefits of an early rhythm control strategy observed in this setting may be due to the overall high burden of comorbidities and advanced age of these patients.

Prajapathi S, Pradhan A. Predictors of permanent pacemaker implantation following transcatheter aortic valve replacement-the search is still on! World J Cardiol 2024; 16:104-108. [PMID: 38576520 PMCID: PMC10989220 DOI: 10.4330/wjc.v16.i3.104] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2023] [Revised: 01/12/2024] [Accepted: 02/18/2024] [Indexed: 03/21/2024] Open
Abstract
Several anatomical, demographic, clinical, electrocardiographic, procedural, and valve-related variables can be used to predict the probability of developing conduction abnormalities after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) that necessitate permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation. These variables include calcifications around the device landing zone and in the mitral annulus; pre-existing electrocardiographic abnormalities such as left and right bundle branch blocks (BBB), first- and second-degree atrioventricular blocks, as well as bifascicular and trifascicular blocks; male sex; diabetes mellitus (DM); hypertension; history of atrial fibrillation; renal failure; dementia; and use of self-expanding valves. The current study supports existing literature by demonstrating that type 2 DM and baseline right BBB are significant predictors of PPM implantation post-TAVR. Regardless of the side of the BBB, this study demonstrated, for the first time, a linear association between the incidence of PPM implantation post-TAVR and every 20 ms increase in baseline QRS duration (above 100 ms). After a 1-year follow-up, patients who received PPM post-TAVR had a higher rate of hospitalization for heart failure and nonfatal myocardial infarction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) have been associated with worse short-term outcomes compared with patients in sinus rhythm but data on long-term outcomes are limited. The aim of our study was to evaluate the association between AF and short- and long-term outcomes in patients undergoing TAVI. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated patients undergoing TAVI between 2012 and 2022 in four tertiary centres. Two different analyses were conducted: (i) in-hospital and (ii) postdischarge analysis. First, we evaluated the association between preexisting AF and short-term outcomes according to VARC-3 criteria. Second, we analyzed the association between AF at discharge (defined as both preexisting and new-onset AF occurring after TAVI) and long-term outcomes at median follow-up of 3.2 years (i.e. all-cause death, hospitalization and major adverse cardiovascular events). RESULTS A total of 759 patients were initially categorized according to the presence of preexisting AF (241 vs. 518 patients). The preexisting AF group had a higher occurrence of acute kidney injury [odds ratio (OR) 1.65; 95%confidence interval ( CI) 1.15-2.38] and major bleeding (OR 1.86, 95% CI 1.06-3.27). Subsequently, the population was categorized according to the presence of AF at discharge. At the adjusted Cox regression analysis, AF was independently associated with an increased risk of all-cause death and cardiovascular hospitalization [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) 1.42, 95% CI 1.09-1.86], all-cause death and all-cause hospitalization (aHR 1.38, 95% CI 1.06-1.78) and all-cause hospitalization (aHR 1.59, 95% CI 1.14.2.22). CONCLUSIONS In a real-world cohort of patients undergoing TAVI, the presence of AF (preexisting and new-onset) was independently associated with both short- and long-term adverse outcomes.

Predictors of All-Cause Mortality After Successful Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation. Am J Cardiol 2023; 207:150-158.

Abstract
Prevalent and incident atrial fibrillation are common in patients who undergo transcatheter aortic valve implantation and are associated with impaired postprocedural outcomes, including mortality. We determined predictors of long-term mortality in patients with atrial fibrillation after successful transcatheter aortic valve implantation. The EdoxabaN Versus standard of care and theIr effectS on clinical outcomes in pAtients havinG undergonE Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation-Atrial Fibrillation (ENVISAGE-TAVI AF) trial (NCT02943785) was a multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial in patients with prevalent or incident atrial fibrillation after successful transcatheter aortic valve implantation who received edoxaban or vitamin K antagonists. A Cox proportional hazard model was performed to identify predictors of all-cause mortality using a stepwise approach for multiple regression analysis. In addition, we assessed the performance of different risk scores and prediction models using ENVISAGE-TAVI AF data. Of 1,426 patients in ENVISAGE-TAVI AF, 178 (12.5%) died during the follow-up period (median 548 days). Our stepwise approach identified greater risk of mortality with older age, impaired renal function, nonparoxysmal atrial fibrillation, excessive alcohol use, New York Heart Association heart failure class III/IV, peripheral artery disease, and history of major bleeding or predisposition to bleeding. The present model (concordance statistic [c-statistic] 0.67) was a better discriminator than were other frequently used risk scores, such as the Society of Thoracic Surgeons score (c-statistic 0.56); Congestive heart failure, Hypertension, Age ≥75, Diabetes, Stroke, Vascular disease, Age 65 to 74 years, and Sex category (CHA2DS2-VASc) score (c-statistic 0.54); or Hypertension, Abnormal renal/liver function, Stroke, Bleeding history or predisposition, Labile international normalized ratio, Elderly, and Drugs/alcohol concomitantly (HAS-BLED) score (c-statistic 0.58). In ENVISAGE-TAVI AF, several modifiable and nonmodifiable clinical characteristics were significantly associated with greater long-term all-cause mortality. Improved risk stratification to estimate the probability of mortality after successful transcatheter aortic valve implantation in patients with atrial fibrillation may improve long-term patient prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence and predictors of 30-day stroke after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) were derived from early studies investigating first-generation devices. The incidence of 6-month stroke and its related predictors are unknown. AIMS To investigate the incidence and to identify procedural and patient-related predictors of 30-day and 6-month stroke after TAVR. METHODS Data from 2753 consecutive patients with severe aortic stenosis undergoing TAVR were obtained from the OBSERVANT-II study, an observational, prospective, multicenter cohort study. The study endpoints were symptomatic 30-day and 6-month stroke after TAVR. RESULTS The occurrence of a 30-day and 6-month stroke was low (1.3% and 2.4%, respectively) but with significant impact on survival. Aortic valve predilatation (odds ratio [OR]: 2.28, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.12-4.65, p = 0.023), diabetes (OR: 3.10, 95% CI: 1.56-6.18, p = 0.001), and left ventricle ejection fraction < 50% (OR: 2.15, 95% CI: 1.04-4.47, p = 0.04) were independent predictors of 30-day stroke, whereas diabetes (sub-distribution hazard ratio [SHR]: 2.07, 95% CI: 1.25-3.42, p = 0.004), pre-existing neurological dysfunction (SHR: 3.92, 95% CI: 1.54-10, p = 0.004), bicuspid valve (SHR: 4.75, 95% CI: 1.44-15.7, p = 0.011), and critical status (SHR: 3.05, 95% CI: 1.21-7.72, p = 0.018) were predictive of 6-month stroke. Conversely, antiplatelet therapy and anticoagulation were protective factors at both 30 days and 6 months. CONCLUSIONS Stroke after TAVR was rare. Predilatation was the only procedural factor predictive of 30-day stroke, whereas the remaining were patient-related risk factors, suggesting appropriate risk stratification preoperatively.

Abstract
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is increasingly being performed to treat symptomatic patients with aortic stenosis and annual procedure volume has overtaken surgical aortic valve replacement in the United States. However, current international guidelines were written prior to the publication of several important recent studies. Furthermore, European and American guidelines differ in their recommendations of antithrombotic therapy following TAVR. Consequently, there is a need to examine the literature to provide clinicians guidance on the optimum antithrombotic strategy, particularly as different patient populations exist. In this review, we examine the data for antiplatelet and anticoagulation therapy post-TAVR.

Abstract
Background The outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) employing the second-generation retrievable VenusA-Pro and VenusA-Plus delivery systems with the self-expanding VenusA-Valve have not been described yet. This study aims to report the outcomes of these two second-generation delivery systems. Methods From January 2022 to April 2023, we prospectively enrolled patients with severe aortic stenosis undergoing TAVR with VenusA-Pro from three centers across China in this first-in-man study and retrospectively identified those undergoing TAVR with VenusA-Plus. All outcomes were reported according to the Valve Academic Research Consortium 3 definition. The primary outcome was 30-day all-cause mortality. Results A total of 156 patients were included, of which 46 underwent TAVR with VenusA-Pro and 110 underwent TAVR with VenusA-Plus. The Society of Thoracic Surgeons median score was 2.1%, bicuspid anatomy prevalence rate was 55.1%, and the mean aortic root calcification volume was 693 mm3. The technical success rate was 91.7%, comparable between the VenusA-Pro and VenusA-Plus groups (87.0% vs. 93.6%, P = 0.169). The 30-day all-cause mortality was 2.6%, similar between the VenusA-Pro and VenusA-Plus groups (2.2% vs. 2.7%, P = 0.842). No myocardial infarction occurred. The incidences of stroke (0.6%), major bleeding (3.8%), major vascular complications (5.1%), acute kidney injury (9.0%), permanent pacemaker implantation (5.1%), new-onset atrial fibrillation (5.8%), and moderate-to-severe paravalvular aortic regurgitation (6.0%) were favorable and comparable between the two groups. The clinical outcomes were similar between the patients with bicuspid and tricuspid aortic valve, except that the incidence of permanent pacemaker implantation was lower in patients with bicuspid anatomy (1.2% vs. 10.6%, P = 0.010). Conclusions The 30-day outcomes of TAVR with VenusA-Pro and VenusA-Plus were favorable and comparable.

Abstract
Background Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is a common complication after cardiac surgery, which is associated with age and massive bleeding. However, whether thyroid hormone (TH) level can affect POAF remains controversial. Aim To investigate the occurrence and risk factors of POAF, in particular, the preoperative TH level of patients was introduced into this study as a variable for analysis, and a column graph prediction model of POAF was constructed. Methods Patients who underwent valve surgery in Fujian Cardiac Medical Center from January 2019 to May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed and divided into POAF group and NO-POAF group. Baseline characteristics and relevant clinical data were collected from the two groups of patients. Independent risk factors for POAF were screened using univariate analysis and binary logistic regression analysis, and a column line graph prediction model was established based on the regression analysis results, and the diagnostic efficacy and calibration of the model were evaluated using the Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (ROC) and calibration curve. Results A total of 2,340 patients underwent valve surgery, excluding 1,751 patients, a total of 589 patients were included, including 89 patients in POAF group and 500 patients in NO-POAF group. The total incidence of POAF was 15.1%. The results of the Logistics regression analysis showed that gender, age, leukocytes and TSH were risk factors of POAF. The area under the ROC curve of the nomogram prediction model for POAF was 0.747 (95% CI: 0.688-0.806, P < 0.001), with a sensitivity of 74.2% and specificity of 68%. Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed χ 2 = 11.141, P = 0.194 > 0.05, the calibration curve was well fitted. Conclusion The results of this study show that gender, age, leukocyte and TSH are risk factors of POAF, and the nomogram prediction model has a good prediction effect. Due to the limited sample size and included population, more studies are needed to validate this result.

METHODS Patients undergoing transcatheter or surgical AVR from the PARTNER 2 and 3 trials were pooled and classified by cardiac damage stage at baseline and 1-year (Stage 0, no damage; Stage 1, left ventricular damage; Stage 2, left atrial or mitral valve damage; Stage 3, pulmonary vasculature or tricuspid valve damage; Stage 4, right ventricular damage). Proportional hazards models determined association between change in cardiac damage post-AVR and 2-year outcomes. RESULTS Among 1974 patients, 121 (6.1%) were Stage 0, 287 (14.5%) Stage 1, 1014 (51.4%) Stage 2, 412 (20.9%) Stage 3, and 140 (7.1%) Stage 4 pre-AVR. Two-year mortality was associated with extent of cardiac damage at baseline and 1-year. Compared with baseline, cardiac damage improved in ∼15%, remained unchanged in ∼60%, and worsened in ∼25% of patients at 1-year. One-year change in cardiac damage stage was independently associated with mortality (adjHR for improvement=0.49; no change=1.0; worsening=1.95; p=0.023) and composite of death or heart failure hospitalization (adjHR for improvement=0.60; no change=1.0; worsening=2.25; p<0.001) at 2 years. CONCLUSION In patients undergoing AVR, extent of extravalvular cardiac damage at baseline and its change at 1-year have important prognostic implications. These findings suggest that earlier detection of AS and intervention prior to development of irreversible cardiac damage may improve global cardiac function and prognosis.
