Clin Cardiol 2024; 47:e24313. [PMID: 38975623 PMCID: PMC11228827 DOI: 10.1002/clc.24313] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/19/2023] [Revised: 06/10/2024] [Accepted: 06/18/2024] [Indexed: 07/09/2024] Open
Abstract
AIMS Patients affected by functional mitral regurgitation represent an increasingly high-risk population. Edge-to-edge mitral valve repair (TEER) has emerged as a promising treatment option for these patients. However, there is limited research on the comparative outcomes of TEER versus surgical mitral valve repair (SMVr). This study seeks to compare the demographics, complications, and outcomes of TEER and SMVr based on a real-world analysis of the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database. METHODS AND RESULTS In the NIS database, from the years 2016 to 2018, a total of 6233 and 2524 patients who underwent SMVr and TEER were selected, respectively. The mean ages of the patients were 65.68 years (SMVr) and 78.40 years (TEER) (p < 0.01). The mortality rate of patients who received SMVr was similar to that of patients who were treated with TEER (1.7% vs. 1.9%, p = 0.603). Patients who underwent SMVr more likely suffered from perioperative complications including cardiogenic shock (2.3% vs. 0.4%, p < 0.001), cardiac arrest (1.7% vs. 1.1%, p = 0.025), and cerebrovascular infarction (0.9% vs. 0.4%, p = 0.013). The average length of hospital stay was longer (8.59 vs. 4.13 days, p < 0.001) for SMVr compared to TEER; however, the average cost of treatment was higher ($218 728.25 vs. $215 071.74, p = 0.031) for TEER compared to SMVr. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that SMVr was associated with worse adjusted cardiogenic shock (OR, 7.347 [95% CI, 3.574-15.105]; p < 0.01) and acute kidney injury (OR, 2.793 [95% CI, 2.356-3.311]; p < 0.01). CONCLUSION Patients who underwent TEER demonstrated a notable decrease in postoperative complications and a shorter hospitalization period when compared to those who underwent SMVr.

JACC Cardiovasc Interv 2024; 17:1440-1451. [PMID: 38639690 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcin.2024.02.033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2023] [Revised: 02/15/2024] [Accepted: 02/27/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Thirty-day outcomes with the investigational Intrepid transapical (TA) transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) system have previously demonstrated good technical success, but longer-term outcomes in larger cohorts need to be evaluated. OBJECTIVES The authors sought to evaluate the 2-year safety and performance of the Intrepid TA-TMVR system in patients with symptomatic, ≥moderate-severe mitral regurgitation (MR) and high surgical risk. METHODS Patient eligibility was determined by local heart teams and approved by a central screening committee. Clinical events were adjudicated by an independent clinical events committee. Echocardiography was evaluated by an independent core laboratory. RESULTS The cohort included 252 patients that were enrolled at 58 international sites before February 2021 as part of the global Pilot Study (n = 95) or APOLLO trial (primary cohort noneligible + TA roll-ins, n = 157). Mean age was 74.2 years, mean STS-PROM was 6.3%, 60.3% were male, and 80.6% were in NYHA functional class III/IV. Most presented with secondary MR (70.1%), and nearly all had ≥moderate-severe MR (98.4%). All-cause mortality was 13.1% (30-day), 27.3% (1-year), and 36.2% (2-year). The 30-day ≥major bleeding event rate was 22.3%. Heart failure rehospitalization was 9.6% (30-day) and 36.2% (2-year). At 2 years, >50% of patients were alive with improvement in NYHA functional class (82.1%, class I/II), and all patients with available echocardiograms had ≤mild MR. CONCLUSIONS This analysis represents the largest reported TA-TMVR experience with the longest follow-up in high-risk ≥moderate-severe MR patients. Early mortality and heart failure rehospitalizations were significant, exacerbated by early TA-related bleeding events; however, meaningful improvements in clinical outcomes and marked reductions in MR severity were observed through 2 years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence-based recommendations for antithrombotic treatment in patients who have an indication for oral anticoagulation (OAC) after transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral valve repair (TEER) are lacking. AIMS To compare bleeding and thrombotic risk for different antithrombotic regimens post-TEER with MitraClip in an unselected population with the need for OACs. METHODS Bleeding and thrombotic complications (stroke and myocardial infarction) up to 3 months after TEER with mitraclip were evaluated in 322 consecutive pts with an indication for OACs. These endpoints were defined by the Mitral Valve Academic Research Consortium criteria and were compared between two antithrombotic regimens: single antithrombotic therapy with OAC (single ATT) and double/triple ATT with a combination of OAC and aspirin and/or clopidogrel (combined ATT). RESULTS Collectively, 108 (34%) patients received single ATT, 203 (63%) received double ATT and 11 (3%) received triple ATT. Bleeding events occurred in 67 patients (20.9%), with access site related events being the most frequent cause (37%). Bleeding complications were observed more frequently in the combined ATT group than in the single ATT group: 24% versus 14% [p = 0.03, adjusted RR: 0.55 (0.3-0.98)]. Within the combined group, the bleeding risk was 23% in the double ATT and 45% in the triple ATT group. Thrombotic complications occurred in only three patients (0.9%), and all belonged to the combined ATT group. CONCLUSIONS In patients with an indication for OACs, withholding of antiplatelet therapy post-TEER with Mitraclip was associated with a 45% reduction in bleeding and without a signal of increased thrombotic risk.

Current status of transcatheter mitral valve replacement: systematic review and meta-analysis. Front Cardiovasc Med 2023; 10:1130212. [PMID: 37234369 PMCID: PMC10206247 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1130212] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2022] [Accepted: 04/24/2023] [Indexed: 05/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Mitral Regurgitation (MR) has a strong impact on quality of life and on mid-term survival. Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) is rapidly expanding and a growing number of studies have been published recently. Methods A systematic review of studies reporting on clinical data for patients with symptomatic severe MR undergoing TMVR was performed. Early- and mid-term outcomes (clinical and echocardiographic) were evaluated. Overall weighted means and rates were calculated. Risk ratios or mean differences were calculated for pre- and post-procedural comparisons. Results A total of 12 studies and 347 patients who underwent TMVR with devices clinically available or under clinical evaluation were included. Thirty-day mortality, stroke and major bleeding rates were 8.4%, 2.6%, and 15.6%, respectively. Pooled random-effects demonstrated a significant reduction of ≥ grade 3+ MR (RR: 0.05; 95% CI: 0.02-0.11; p < 0.001) and in the rates of patients in NYHA class 3-4 after the intervention (RR: 0.27; 95% CI: 0.22-0.34; p < 0.001). Additionally, the pooled fixed-effect mean difference for quality of life based on the KCCQ score yielded an improvement in 12.9 points (95% CI:7.4-18.4, p < 0.001), and exercise capacity improved by a pooled fixed-effect mean difference of 56.8 meters in the 6-minute walk test (95% CI 32.2-81.3, p < 0.001). Conclusions Among 12 studies and 347 patients comprising the updated evidence with current TMVR systems there was a statistically significant reduction in ≥ grade 3+ MR and in the number of patients exhibiting poor functional class (NYHA 3 or 4) after the intervention. Overall rate of major bleeding was the main shortcoming of this technique.

Abstract
Surgical and endovascular procedures for coronary and structural heart interventions carry a meaningful risk of acute stroke with greatly increased likelihood of disability and long-term neurocognitive sequelae. In the last decade, transcatheter aortic valve replacement procedures have focused our attention on a spectrum of procedure-related neurologic injuries that have led to various efforts to prevent ischemic injury with the use of embolic protection devices. As the number of patients undergoing surgical and transcatheter cardiac procedures in the United States continues to increase, the risk of iatrogenic brain injury is concerning, particularly in patient populations already at increased risk of thromboembolism and cognitive decline. In this study, we reviewed the current estimates of the incidence of iatrogenic cerebral embolization and ischemic infarction after surgical and percutaneous transcatheter interventions for coronary artery disease, stenotic aortic and mitral valves, atrial fibrillation, left atrial appendage and patent foramen ovale closure. Our findings show that every year in the United States, nearly 2 million patients undergo coronary and structural heart interventions, with approximately 8000 at risk of experiencing a symptomatic stroke and 330,225 (95% CI, 249,948-430,377) at the risk of ischemic brain injury after the procedure. Given the increased use of surgical and endovascular cardiac procedures in clinical practice, the risk of iatrogenic cerebral embolism is significant and demands careful consideration through neurologic and cognitive assessments and appropriate risk mitigation.

Abstract
AIMS Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most prevalent form of valvular heart disease. Transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVr) and transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) have recently emerged as alternatives to open heart surgical repair or replacement. However, studies on the comparative outcomes of TMVr and TMVR are limited. This study aims to compare the demographics, complications and outcomes of TMVr and TMVR based on a real-world investigation of the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database. METHODS AND RESULTS From 2016-2018 in the NIS database, a total of 210 and 3370 patients who underwent TMVR and TMVr, respectively, were selected. The mean age of the patients was 75.99 years (TMVr) and 69.6 years (TMVR) (p <0.01). The mortality of patients who received TMVR was higher compared to that of patients who were treated with TMVr (8.1 vs. 1.9%, p <0.01). The patients who underwent TMVR were more likely to suffer perioperative complications including blood transfusions (16.2 vs. 5.0%, p <0.01) and acute kidney injury (22.9 vs. 13.3%, p <0.01). The average cost of treatment was higher (USD $278864 vs. USD $216845, p <0.01), and the average duration of hospitalization was longer (8.73 vs. 4.17 d, p <0.01) for TMVR compared to TMVr. When taking into account perioperative comorbidities and other factors, TMVR was associated with a worse adjusted in-hospital mortality (odds ratio [OR], 3.307 [95% CI, 1.533-7.136]; p <0.01). CONCLUSION TMVr is associated with lower mortality, peri-procedural morbidity, and resource use compared to TMVR. A patient-centered approach can help guide decision-making about the choice of intervention for the individual patient and more studies evaluating the long-term outcomes and durability of TMVR are needed at present.

Antithrombotic Treatment and Its Association with Outcome in a Multicenter Cohort of Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Mitral Valve Repair Patients. J Cardiovasc Dev Dis 2022; 9:366. [PMID: 36354765 PMCID: PMC9695441 DOI: 10.3390/jcdd9110366] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2022] [Revised: 10/17/2022] [Accepted: 10/24/2022] [Indexed: 08/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral valve repair (TEER) has become established as a safe and efficacious therapy for severe mitral regurgitation (MR) in high-risk patients. Despite its widespread use, postprocedural antithrombotic therapy (ATT) still to date is based on local expertise rather than evidence. In a multicenter, observational cohort study, 646 consecutive patients undergoing TEER were enrolled; 609 patients were successfully treated and antithrombotic therapy analyzed; 449 patients (73.7%) were previously treated with oral anticoagulants (OAC) due to the high prevalence of atrial fibrillation (459/609, 75.4%). Postprocedural ATT in patients previously treated with OAC consisted of no additional, additional single (SAPT) or dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in 146/449 (33.6%), 248/449 (55.2%) and 55/449 (12.2%), respectively. There were 234/449 (52.1%) patients treated with vitamin-k antagonists (VKA) and 215/449 (47.9%) with nonvitamin-k antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOAC). One hundred sixty patients (26.3%) had no prior indication for OAC and were predominantly treated with DAPT (132/160, 82.5%). Use of SAPT (17/160, 10.6%) and no APT (11/160, 6.9%) was marginal. No statistically significant differences in terms of in-hospital mortality or the rate of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) between the different antithrombotic therapy regimens were observed. Multiple Cox regression analysis showed a statistically significant decreased risk for all-cause mortality after a median follow-up of 419 days for OAC monotherapy (HR 0.6, 95%-CI 0.5-0.9, p = 0.04). This study provides evidence for a more favorable long-term outcome of OAC monotherapy in patients with an indication for OAC and reiterates the urgent need for randomized controlled trials on the optimal antithrombotic treatment of TEER patients.

Mortality and morbidity of surgical and transcatheter mitral valve repair in octogenarians: A systematic review. J Card Surg 2022; 37:2752-2760. [PMID: 35652892 DOI: 10.1111/jocs.16653] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2021] [Revised: 03/10/2022] [Accepted: 04/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Valvular heart disease (VHD) is a prominent problem in healthcare today with mitral regurgitation (MR) being the leading cause of VHD in the elderly population. While mitral valve repair (MVr) surgery is one of the only options for the end-stage disease, octogenarians are often denied MVr due to concerns with operative mortality and postoperative morbidity. To provide information on this underrepresented group of surgical patients, a systematic approach was taken to review the mortality and morbidity rates of octogenarians who received MVr. METHODS Pubmed and Medline were searched for articles containing outcomes of octogenarians receiving surgical mitral valve repair (SMVr) or transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVr) published after 2000. Ten articles met the inclusion criteria for a total of 7968 patients included in the analysis using Microsoft Excel, Version 2105. RESULTS Short-term mortality rates for SMVr and TMVr were 2.6% and 1.4% for in-hospital, and 7.8% and 3.3% for 30 days, respectively. The average incidence of stroke, acute kidney injury, infection, and major bleeding for SMVr were 3.2%, 11.2%, 7.7%, and 24%, respectively, and 0.3%, 6.7%, 2.7%, and 7.9% for TMVr, respectively. CONCLUSION Octogenarians receiving SMVr or TMVr experienced similar rates of short-term mortality and morbidity as younger populations, and when considering life expectancy, midterm mortality was also similar. With these results, denying octogenarians MVr operations based on age alone should be reconsidered. Depending on risk factors and comorbidities, either SMVr or TMVr is a viable and relatively safe option for octogenarians with severe MR.

Early and mid-term outcomes of transcatheter tricuspid valve repair: systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies. REVISTA ESPAÑOLA DE CARDIOLOGÍA (ENGLISH EDITION) 2022; 76:322-332.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is associated with poor prognosis when left untreated, and a growing number of studies on transcatheter tricuspid valve repair (TTVr) have been published over the last few months. METHODS We performed a comprehensive systematic review of published literature providing clinical data on TTVr for patients with significant TR. Early and mid-term clinical and echocardiographic outcomes were evaluated. Risk ratios (RR) or mean differences (MD) were obtained when comparing pre- and postprocedural data. A sensitivity analysis was also performed according to the main approach for repair (edge-to-edge vs annuloplasty). RESULTS A total of 19 studies (all observational or single-arm trials) and 991 patients who underwent isolated TTVr were included. Thirty-day mortality and stroke rates were 2.8% and 0.2%, respectively. Pooled random-effects resulted in a significant reduction of ≥ severe TR (RR, 0.33; 95%CI, 0.26-0.42; P < .001), vena contracta width (MD, 5.9mm; 95%CI, 4-7.9; P <.001), right ventricular end-diastolic diameter (MD, 3.5mm; 95%CI, 2.5-4.5; P <.001), and New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III or IV at last follow-up (RR, 0.32; 95%CI, 0.27-0.37; P <.001). Bleeding complications and residual ≥ severe TR were numerically higher in the annuloplasty-like group compared with edge-to-edge repair (13.3% vs 3.8% for bleeding and 40.4% vs 27.9% for residual severe TR). CONCLUSIONS Among 991 patients comprising the early experience for several TTVr devices, there was a statistically significant reduction in ≥ severe TR, NYHA class III-IV, vena contracta width and right ventricular end-diastolic diameter after TTVr. Thus far, the edge-to-edge approach seems to be associated with a better safety profile.

Abstract
Acute ischemic stroke is a feared complication during cardiovascular procedures associated with high morbidity and mortality if not immediately recognized and treated. We conducted a review of cases at our center where patients experienced an acute, procedure-related ischemic stroke and underwent immediate endovascular stroke treatment by the interventional cardiologists trained in acute endovascular stroke intervention. Baseline demographics, procedural and follow-up data were collected. Three patients were identified in whom the percutaneous procedure (peripheral arterial intervention, transapical NeoChord [NeoChord Inc, Minnesota, USA] implantation and transcatheter aortic valve implantation, respectively) was complicated by an acute embolic ischemic stroke. In all cases, cerebral vessel re-canalization was technically successful with thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (TICI) IIB/III flow. Follow-up computed tomography scans showed no infarct demarcation, oedema or intracranial hemorrhage. One patient survived with no neurological symptoms at 6-month follow-up whereas the two other patients died of unrelated intensive care complications and decompensated heart failure. We conclude that endovascular stroke treatment during cardiovascular interventions can be performed by interventional cardiologists with appropriate training. It offers the unique opportunity to treat cerebral embolization in a time-efficient manner, potentially improving morbidity and mortality of affected patients.

Abstract
Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most prevalent valvular heart disease and, when left untreated, it confers a poorer prognosis. Catheter-based repair therapies face some limitations like their applicability on challenging anatomies and the potential recurrence of significant MR over time. Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) has emerged as a less invasive approach potentially overcoming some of the current limitations associated with transcatheter mitral valve repair. Several devices are under clinical investigation, and a growing number of systems allow for a fully percutaneous transfemoral approach. In this review, the authors aimed to delineate the main challenges faced by the TMVR field, to highlight the key aspects for procedural planning, and to describe the clinical results of the TMVR systems under clinical investigation. Finally, they also discuss what the future perspectives are for this emerging field.
