Abstract
AIMS T-TEER is an effective therapy for the treatment of tricuspid regurgitation (TR). However, the effects of leaflets clipping on tricuspid valve annulus (TA) have not been investigated in detail. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER) on TA diameter. METHODS AND RESULTS The TriValve registry (Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Therapies, NCT03416166) collected 556 patients from 22 European and North American centres undergoing transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions from 2016 to 2022. Patients undergoing T-TEER with available pre- and post-procedural data on TA diameter measured in the apical 4-chamber view on transthoracic echocardiography were selected for this study. Primary end-point was the reduction of TA diameter after T-TEER. A total of 186 patients were included in the study. In 115 patients (62%) TA diameter was reduced by at least 1 mm as compared to baseline. A significant reduction of TA dimension was observed following T-TEER (mean 2.3 mm [from pre-procedural diameter 46.7 mm to post-procedural diameter 44.4 mm], p < 0.001). In particular, the greatest reduction was observed in those with T-TEER in antero-septal commissure (mean 2.7 mm [from 47.1 mm to 44.4 mm], p < 0.001) as compared to those combining both antero-septal and postero-septal commissures (mean 1.4, from 46.0 mm to 44.6 mm, P = 0.06). A significant reduction of TA dimension was recorded in patients with 1 or 2 clips implanted but not in those patients with ≥3 clips implanted. CONCLUSIONS In almost two third of patients T-TEER reduces TA diameter in addition to leaflet approximation. CONDENSED ABSTRACT The effects of tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER) on tricuspid valve annulus (TA) have not been studied in details. This study investigates TA diameter as measured in apical 4-chamber view on transthoracic echocardiography before and after T-TEER. A total of 186 patients from the TriValve registry were included in the study. The study results show that 62% of patients have a TA reduction after T-TEER, especially in those receiving 1 or 2 clips in the antero-septal commissure. These suggest that T-TEER reduces tricuspid regurgitation not only by approximation of leaflets, but also by TA diameter reduction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data on the prognostic role of the TRI-SCORE in patients undergoing transcatheter tricuspid valve intervention (TTVI) are limited. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of the TRI-SCORE in predicting outcomes of patients undergoing TTVI. METHODS TriValve (Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Therapies) is a large multicenter multinational registry including patients undergoing TTVI. The TRI-SCORE is a risk model recently proposed to predict in-hospital mortality after tricuspid valve surgery. The TriValve population was stratified based on the TRI-SCORE tertiles. The outcomes of interest were all-cause death and all-cause death or heart failure hospitalization. Procedural complications and changes in NYHA functional class were also reported. RESULTS Among the 634 patients included, 223 patients (35.2%) had a TRI-SCORE between 0 and 5, 221 (34.8%) had 6 or 7, and 190 (30%) had ≥8 points. Postprocedural blood transfusion, acute kidney injury, new atrial fibrillation, and in-hospital mortality were more frequent in the highest TRI-SCORE tertile. Postprocedure length of stay increased with a TRI-SCORE increase. A TRI-SCORE ≥8 was associated with an increased risk of 30-day all-cause mortality and all-cause mortality and the composite endpoint assessed at a median follow-up of 186 days (OR: 3.00; 95% CI: 1.38-6.55; HR: 2.17; 95% CI: 1.78-4.13; HR: 2.08, 95% CI: 1.57-2.74, respectively) even after adjustment for procedural success and EuroSCORE II or Society of Thoracic Surgeons Predicted Risk of Mortality. The NYHA functional class improved across all TRI-SCORE values. CONCLUSIONS In the TriValve registry, the TRI-SCORE has a suboptimal performance in predicting clinical outcomes. However, a TRISCORE ≥8 is associated with an increased risk of clinical events and a lack of prognostic benefit after successful TTVI.

Abstract
AIMS Characterize the impact of residual tricuspid regurgitation (TR) on right ventricle (RV) remodeling and clinical outcomes after transcatheter tricuspid valve intervention. METHODS We performed a single-center retrospective analysis of transcatheter tricuspid valve repair (TTVr) or replacement (TTVR) patients. The primary outcomes were longitudinal tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE), fractional area change (FAC), pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP), and RV dimensions (RVd). We used multivariable linear mixed models to evaluate association with replacement versus repair and degree of TR reduction with changes in these echo measures over time. Multivariable Cox regression was used to identify associations between changes in these echo measures and a composite clinical outcome of death, heart failure hospitalization, or re-do tricuspid valve intervention. RESULTS We included a total of 61 patients; mean age was 77.5 ± 11.7 and 62% were female. TTVR was performed in 25 (41%) and TTVr in 36 (59%). Initially, 72% (n = 44) had ≤ severe TR and 28% (n = 17) had massive or torrential TR. The median number of follow up echos was 2: time to 1st follow-up was 50 days (interquartile range [IQR]: 20, 91) and last follow-up was 147 (IQR: 90, 327). Median TR reduction was 1 (IQR: 0, 2) versus 4 (IQR: 3, 6) grades in TTVr versus TTVR (p < 0.0001). In linear mixed modeling, TTVR was associated with decline in TAPSE and PASP, and TR reduction was associated with decreased RVd. In multivariable Cox regression, greater RVd was associated with the clinical outcome (hazard ratio: 9.27, 95% confidence interval: 1.23-69.88, p = 0.03). CONCLUSION Greater TR reduction is achieved by TTVR versus TTVr, which is in turn associated with RV reverse remodeling. RV dimension in follow-up is associated with increased risk of a composite outcome of death, heart failure hospitalization, or re-do tricuspid valve intervention.

Abstract
AIM Functional or secondary tricuspid regurgitation (STR) is the most common phenotype of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) with atrial STR (ASTR) and ventricular STR (VSTR) being recently identified as two distinct entities. Data on tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER) in patients with STR according to phenotype (i.e. ASTR vs. VSTR) are lacking. The aim of this study was to assess characteristics and outcomes of patients with ASTR versus VSTR undergoing T-TEER. METHODS AND RESULTS Patients with STR undergoing T-TEER were selected from the Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Therapies (TriValve) registry. ASTR was defined by (i) left ventricular ejection fraction ≥50%, (ii) atrial fibrillation, and (iii) systolic pulmonary artery pressure <50 mmHg. Patients not matching these criteria were classified as VSTR. Patients with primary TR and cardiac implantable electronic device were excluded. Key endpoints included procedural success and survival at follow-up. A total of 298 patients were enrolled in the study: 65 (22%) with ASTR and 233 (78%) with VSTR. Procedural success was similar in the two groups (80% vs. 83% for ASTR vs. VSTR, p = 0.56) and TEER was effective in reducing TR in both groups (from 97% of patients with baseline TR ≥3+ to 23% in ASTR and to 15% in VSTR, all p = 0.001). At 12-month follow-up, survival was significantly higher in the ASTR versus VSTR cohort (91% vs. 72%, log-rank p = 0.02), with VSTR being an independent predictor of mortality at multivariable analysis (hazard ratio 4.75). CONCLUSIONS In a real-world, multicentre registry, T-TEER was effective in reducing TR grade in both ASTR and VSTR. At 12-month follow-up, ASTR showed better survival than VSTR.

BACKGROUND The MITRAL (Mitral Implantation of Transcatheter Valves) trial is the first prospective trial to evaluate the safety and feasibility of balloon-expandable aortic transcatheter heart valves in patients with failed surgical bioprostheses or annuloplasty rings and severe mitral annular calcification treated with mitral valve-in-valve (MViV), valve-in-ring (MViR), or valve-in-mitral annular calcification (ViMAC). OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate 5-year outcomes among these patients. METHODS A multicenter prospective study was conducted among patients at high surgical risk at 13 U.S. sites. Patients underwent MViV (n = 30), MViR (n = 30), or ViMAC (n = 31) and were followed annually for 5 years. Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire scores were obtained at baseline and follow-up visits. Echocardiograms were analyzed at independent core laboratories. RESULTS A total of 91 patients underwent transcatheter mitral valve replacement (February 2015 to December 2017). The mean age was 74.3 ± 8.9 years. At 5-year follow-up, the lowest all-cause mortality was observed in the MViV group (21.4%), 94.7% of patients were in NYHA functional class I or II, and the mean mitral gradient was 6.6 ± 2.5 mm Hg. The MViR and ViMAC groups had higher all-cause mortality (65.5% and 67.9%), most survivors were in NYHA functional classes I and II (50% and 55.6%), and mean mitral gradients remained stable (5.8 ± 0.1 and 6.7 ± 2.5 mm Hg). Significant improvements in Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire scores were observed when all 3 arms were pooled. CONCLUSIONS MViV, MViR, and ViMAC procedures were associated with sustained improvement of heart failure symptoms and quality of life among survivors at 5 years. Transcatheter heart valve function remained stable in all 3 groups. Patients treated with MViV had excellent survival at 5 years, whereas survival was lower in the MViR and ViMAC groups, consistent with underlying disease severity. Patients with more residual mitral regurgitation had higher mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Valve-in-valve (VIV) transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a less invasive therapeutic option compared with redo surgical valve replacement for high-risk patients. Relative to procedures within stented surgical valves, VIV-TAVI within stentless valves is associated with a higher complication rate due to challenging underlying anatomy and absence of fluoroscopic landmarks. AIMS We share a single-center experience with VIV-TAVI in stentless valves, discussing our procedural insights and associated outcomes. METHODS Our institutional database was queried, and 25 patients who had undergone VIV-TAVI within a stentless bioprosthesis, homograft, or valve-sparing aortic root replacement between 2013 and 2022 were found. Outcome endpoints were based on the Valve Academic Research Consortium-3 criteria. RESULTS The mean age of the cohort was 69.5 ± 13.6 years. VIV implantation was performed within a homograft in 11 patients, a stentless bioprothesis in 10 patients, and a valve-sparing aortic root replacement in 4 patients. Nineteen (76%) balloon-expandable valves, 5 (20%) self-expanding valves, and one mechanically-expandable (4%) valve were implanted with 100% procedural success, with no instances of significant paravalvular leak, coronary occlusion, or device embolization. There was one (4%) in-hospitality mortality after an emergency procedure; one (4%) patient experienced a transient ischemic attack; and two (8%) patients required permanent pacemaker implantation. The median length of hospital stay was 2 days. After a median follow-up time of 16.5 months, valve function was acceptable in all patients with available data. CONCLUSION VIV-TAVI within stentless valves can be safely performed with methodical procedural technique and can provide clinical benefit in patients at high reoperation risk.

Abstract
Structural heart interventions are steadily increasing, and the majority requires echocardiographic guidance. As a result, imaging specialists are exposed to the harmful effects of scattered ionizing radiation. This X-ray exposure must be quantified, its potential consequences should be monitored by occupational medicine and the "as low as reasonably achievable" principles of radioprotection should be optimized (including increasing the distance, decreasing the duration, using shielding radiation and providing safety training for the imaging specialist). The spatial organization of and shielding provision in the procedural rooms should be designed to optimize radioprotection for all team members.

Abstract
Adverse outcomes in tricuspid regurgitation (TR) have been associated with advanced regurgitation severity and right-sided cardiac remodeling, and late referrals for tricuspid valve surgery in TR have been associated with increase in postoperative mortality. The purpose of this study was to evaluate baseline characteristics, clinical outcomes, and procedural utilization of a TR referral population. We analyzed patients with a diagnosis of TR referred to a large TR referral center between 2016 and 2020. We evaluated baseline characteristics stratified by TR severity and analyzed time-to-event outcomes for a composite of overall mortality or heart-failure hospitalization. In total, 408 patients were referred with a diagnosis of TR: the median age of the cohort was 79 years (interquartile range 70 to 84), and 56% were female. In patients evaluated on a 5-grade scale, 10.2% had ≤moderate TR; 30.7% had severe TR; 11.4% had massive TR, and 47.7% had torrential TR. Increasing TR severity was associated with right-sided cardiac remodeling and altered right ventricular hemodynamics. In multivariable Cox regression analysis, New York Heart Association class symptoms, history of heart failure hospitalization, and right atrial pressure were associated with the composite outcome. One-third of patients referred underwent transcatheter tricuspid valve intervention (19%) or surgery (14%); patients who underwent transcatheter tricuspid valve intervention had greater preoperative risk than that of patients who underwent surgery. In conclusion, in patients referred for evaluation of TR, there were high rates of massive and torrential regurgitation and advanced right ventricle remodeling. Symptoms and right atrial pressure are associated with clinical outcomes in follow-up. There were significant differences in baseline procedural risk and eventual therapeutic modality.

Abstract
Valvular heart disease (VHD) is the next epidemic in the cardiovascular field, affecting millions of people worldwide and having a major impact on health care systems. With aging of the population, the incidence and prevalence of VHD will continue to increase. However, VHD has not received the attention it deserves from both the public and policymakers. Despite important advances in the pathophysiology, natural history, management, and treatment of VHD including the development of transcatheter therapies, VHD remains underdiagnosed, identified late, and often undertreated with inequality in access to care and treatment options, and there is no medication that can prevent disease progression. The present review article discusses these gaps in the management of VHD and potential actions to undertake to improve the outcome of patients with VHD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transcatheter aortic-valve replacement (TAVR) for the treatment of aortic stenosis can lead to embolization of debris. Capture of debris by devices that provide cerebral embolic protection (CEP) may reduce the risk of stroke. METHODS We randomly assigned patients with aortic stenosis in a 1:1 ratio to undergo transfemoral TAVR with CEP (CEP group) or without CEP (control group). The primary end point was stroke within 72 hours after TAVR or before discharge (whichever came first) in the intention-to-treat population. Disabling stroke, death, transient ischemic attack, delirium, major or minor vascular complications at the CEP access site, and acute kidney injury were also assessed. A neurology professional examined all the patients at baseline and after TAVR. RESULTS A total of 3000 patients across North America, Europe, and Australia underwent randomization; 1501 were assigned to the CEP group and 1499 to the control group. A CEP device was successfully deployed in 1406 of the 1489 patients (94.4%) in whom an attempt was made. The incidence of stroke within 72 hours after TAVR or before discharge did not differ significantly between the CEP group and the control group (2.3% vs. 2.9%; difference, -0.6 percentage points; 95% confidence interval, -1.7 to 0.5; P = 0.30). Disabling stroke occurred in 0.5% of the patients in the CEP group and in 1.3% of those in the control group. There were no substantial differences between the CEP group and the control group in the percentage of patients who died (0.5% vs. 0.3%); had a stroke, a transient ischemic attack, or delirium (3.1% vs. 3.7%); or had acute kidney injury (0.5% vs. 0.5%). One patient (0.1%) had a vascular complication at the CEP access site. CONCLUSIONS Among patients with aortic stenosis undergoing transfemoral TAVR, the use of CEP did not have a significant effect on the incidence of periprocedural stroke, but on the basis of the 95% confidence interval around this outcome, the results may not rule out a benefit of CEP during TAVR.

Abstract
Importance Subclinical leaflet thrombosis affects approximately 15% of patients after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). The pathophysiology and clinical significance of leaflet thrombosis remain incompletely understood. Defining the optimal management strategy in patients who are asymptomatic, including the role for oral anticoagulation (OAC), is a key challenge for the field. Observations Three recent randomized trials have evaluated the role of OAC in patients after TAVR. These studies have confirmed prior observational data suggesting that OAC is effective at prevention of subclinical leaflet thrombosis. Overall, however, OAC does not lead to a clinical benefit over the period studied, and in some patients may be harmful owing to bleeding risk. Conclusions and Relevance Strategies for identification of patients in whom the benefit of OAC outweighs the risks are required for optimization of long-term outcome after TAVR. This requires clearer insights into the mechanisms of asymptomatic leaflet thrombosis, its clinical significance, and patient-specific risks of bleeding and structural valve degeneration.

Background
The proximal isovelocity surface area (PISA) method to quantify tricuspid regurgitation (TR) severity relies on the geometric assumption of a circular, planar regurgitant orifice. However, the TR orifice is often non-circular resulting in underestimation of TR severity when calculating the effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA) and regurgitant volume (RegVol).
Purpose
To evaluate the effect of ellipticity of the tricuspid annulus on EROA-PISA correlation with quantitative Doppler (EROA-Dopp), and three-dimensional vena contracta area (VCA-3D).
Methods
Patients undergoing both transthoracic (TTE) and transesophageal (TEE) echo evaluation of TR severity were included in this study. Regurgitant orifice ellipticity was calculated as the ratio of the vena contracta maximum and minimum widths (VC-Ratio). Quantification of EROA and RegVol were performed on TTE for EROA-PISA and EROA-Dopp. Vena contract area was measured on TEE (VCA-3D).
Results
Of 44 total pts, the median age was 80 ± 9, 61% were female, 89% had atrial fibrillation, (86%) had functional TR, 32% were graded as severe, and 71% had a EROA-PISA ≥ 0.4 cm2. Median VC-Ratio was 1.3 (IQR 1.1-1.8) and was used to differentiate more circular orifices (VC-Ratio <1.3) from more elliptical orifices (VC-Ratio ≥1.3) (Table). EROA-PISA was significantly smaller compared to EROA-Dopp and VCA-3D in the whole group as well as elliptical subgroups (p < 0.0001 for all). There was no significant difference between EROA-Dopp and 3D-VCA for the whole group, or in circular or elliptical orifice subgroups (p > 0.5 for all). EROA-PISA correlated better with both EROA-Dopp and VCA-3D in circular compared to elliptical orifices (Table). EROA-Dopp and VCA-3D demonstrated high correlation for both circular and elliptical orifices (r = 0.76, p < 0.0001 and r = 0.77, p < 0.0001 respectively).
Conclusion
Our study demonstrated that there is a significant difference in quantitative measurements of tricuspid regurgitant orifice area, with EROA-PISA significantly underestimating both EROA-Dopp and VCA-3D. In more circular orifices, the EROA-PISA correlation was higher, however EROA-Dopp and VCA-3D were still significantly larger. Whether EROA-Dopp and VCA-3D are more predictive of outcomes requires further study. Abstract Table 1 Abstract Figure 1

Abstract
Abstract

Type of funding sources: None.
Background
Current guidelines advocate for a multi-parametric approach to echocardiographic quantitation of tricuspid regurgitation (TR). The primary quantitative measure of TR severity uses the proximal isovelocity surface area (PISA) method to calculate effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA) and regurgitant volume (RegVol). However, EROA-PISA may underestimate TR severity due to low flow and tethering of the tricuspid leaflets.
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to compare standard EROA-PISA quantitation of TR to alternative quantitative measures, including quantitative Doppler (EROA-Doppler), flow- and angle-corrected PISA method (EROA-Corrected), and three-dimensional vena contracta area (3D-VCA), in addition to the comparison of calculated RegVol-PISA, RegVol-Doppler, and RegVol-3DVCA.
Methods
Patients undergoing both transthoracic (TTE) and transesophageal (TEE) echocardiographic evaluation of TR severity for transcatheter treatment were included in this study. Patients were excluded if they had ≥ moderate aortic regurgitation. TTE measurements of EROA-PISA and RegVol-PISA were performed as per American Society of Echocardiography guidelines. EROA-Doppler was performed by quantifying RegVol-Doppler (diastolic stroke volume using biplane annular area, minus left ventricular outflow stroke volume) and deriving EROA. EROA-Corrected was calculated by adjusting for both aliasing velocity and leaflet angle as per published methods. 3D-VCA was measured on TEE performed within 14 days of TTE.
Results
Of 44 consecutive patients, the median age was 80 ± 9 years, 61% were female, and 89% had atrial fibrillation. Most patients (86%) had functional TR, 71% had a EROA-PISA ≥ 0.4 cm2. Table 1 shows the EROA and RegVol results for each method. EROA-PISA and RegVol-PISA were significantly lower than EROA-Doppler and RegVol-Doppler, as well as 3D-VCA and RegVol-3DVCA (all p < 0.0001). There was no significant difference between EROA-Doppler and 3D-VCA (p = 0.51), and RegVol-Doppler and RegVol-3DVCA (p = 0.66). EROA-Corrected reduced the absolute difference with EROA-Doppler (51% to 33%, p < 0.0001) and 3D-VCA (52% to 32%, p < 0.0001), but remained statistically lower than EROA-Doppler and 3D-VCA. Although EROA-PISA was strongly correlated to EROA-Doppler (r = 0.75, p < 0.0001) and 3D-VCA (r = 0.68, p < 0.0001), the correlation between EROA-Doppler and 3D-VCA was greatest (r = 0.77, p < 0.0001). Adjusting EROA-PISA for angle and flow demonstrated improved correlation to EROA-Doppler without affecting correlation to 3D-VCA (Figure 1).
Conclusion
Our study demonstrated that EROA-PISA significantly underestimates the severity of TR by EROA-Doppler and 3D-VCA. Although PISA correction methods reduced the underestimation, both EROA-Corrected and RegVol-Corrected remained significantly lower. EROA-Doppler and 3D-VCA and the calculated RegVol by each method, were closely correlated and not significantly different. Abstract Table 1 Abstract Figure 1

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the impact of pulmonary hypertension (PH) on outcomes of patients with severe mitral annular calcification (MAC) undergoing transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR). BACKGROUND PH is associated with poor outcomes after mitral valve surgery. Whether the presence of PH in patients with MAC undergoing (TMVR) is associated with poor outcomes, is unknown. METHODS Retrospective evaluation of 116 patients from 51 centers in 11 countries who underwent TMVR with valve in mitral annular calcification (ViMAC) using balloon-expandable aortic transcatheter valves (THVs) from September 2012 to March 2017. Pulmonary artery systolic blood pressure (PASP) by echocardiogram was available in 90 patients. The subjects were stratified based on PASP: No PH = PASP ≤35 mmHg (n = 11); mild to moderate PH = PASP 36-49 mmHg (n = 21) and severe PH = PASP ≥50 mmHg (n = 58). Clinical, procedural, and echocardiographic outcomes were assessed. RESULTS Mean age was 72.7 (±12.8) years, 59 (65.6%) were female, Society of Thoracic Surgeons score was 15.8 + 11.8% and 90.0% where in New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III-IV. There was no significant difference in all-cause mortality at 30 days (no PH = 27.3%, mild-moderate PH = 19.0%, severe PH = 31.6%; p = 0.55) or at 1 year (no PH = 54.5%, mild-moderate PH = 38.1%, severe PH = 56.1%; p = 0.36). No difference in adverse events, NYHA class or amount of residual mitral regurgitation at 1 year were observed between the groups. CONCLUSION This study suggests that the presence of PH in patients with predominantly mitral stenosis with MAC undergoing TMVR does not impact mortality or adverse events. Further studies are needed to fully understand the effect of PH in this group of patients.

Abstract
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a highly transmissible virus with significant global impact, morbidity, and mortality. The SARS-CoV-2 virus may result in widespread organ manifestations including acute respiratory distress syndrome, acute renal failure, thromboembolism, and myocarditis. Virus-induced endothelial injury may cause endothelial activation, increased permeability, inflammation, and immune response and cytokine storm. Endothelial dysfunction is a systemic disorder that is a precursor of atherosclerotic vascular disease that is associated with cardiovascular risk factors and is highly prevalent in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular and peripheral disease. Several studies have associated various viral infections including SARS-CoV-2 infection with inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, and subsequent innate immune response and cytokine storm. Noninvasive monitoring of endothelial function and identification of high-risk patients who may require specific therapies may have the potential to improve morbidity and mortality associated with subsequent inflammation, cytokine storm, and multiorgan involvement.

BACKGROUND Severe prosthesis-patient mismatch (PPM) is diagnosed by an indexed effective orifice area <0.65 cm2/m2, which is derived from stroke volume index. We examined the impact of flow, determined by stroke volume index, on severe PPM following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR). METHODS We included SAVR patients from the PARTNER 2A trial (Placement of Aortic Transcatheter Valve 2A) and TAVR patients from the PARTNER 2 S3i (Placement of Aortic Transcatheter Valve 2 S3i) registry. The primary end point was the separate analysis of all-cause death, cardiac death, and rehospitalization at 5 years. Following TAVR and SAVR, we compared the primary end points between severe versus no-severe PPM in all patients, in low flow (LF), and in normal flow. Multivariable analysis was performed to determine variables associated with the end points. RESULTS Nine hundred fifty-four TAVR and 726 SAVR patients with PPM and flow data were included. Severe PPM following TAVR was significantly lower compared with SAVR in all patients (9% versus 28%, P<0.0001), in normal flow (5% versus 8%, P=0.04), and in LF (20% versus 42%, P<0.0001). Severe PPM was associated with rehospitalization following TAVR (odds ratio, 1.52 [95% CI, 1.01-2.29], P=0.0456) and SAVR (odds ratio, 1.51 [95% CI, 1.06-2.16], P=0.0237). Severe PPM in LF was independently associated with cardiac death following TAVR (odds ratio, 1.85 [95% CI, 1.06-3.23], P=0.0308). Following SAVR, severe PPM in LF and low ejection fraction was associated with increased cardiac death (35.26% versus 12.51%, P=0.01) and rehospitalization (37.59% versus 15.46%, P=0.006) compared with severe PPM in LF and preserved ejection fraction, respectively. Severe PPM in normal flow was not associated with clinical outcomes despite higher gradients and smaller valves compared with severe PPM in LF. CONCLUSIONS Severe PPM is more common following SAVR compared with TAVR. Regardless of the implanted valve size or gradient, severe PPM impacts mortality only in patients with LF following TAVR and LF and low ejection fraction following SAVR. Severe PPM in normal flow is not associated with poor outcomes. Registration: URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov; Unique identifiers: NCT01314313 and NCT02687035.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to compare incidence and impact of measured prosthesis-patient mismatch (PPMM) versus predicted PPM (PPMP) after surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) and transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). BACKGROUND TAVR studies have used measured effective orifice area indexed (EOAi) to body surface area (BSA) to define PPM, but most SAVR series have used predicted EOAi. This difference may contribute to discrepancies in incidence and outcomes of PPM between series. METHODS The study analyzed SAVR patients from the PARTNER (Placement of Aortic Transcatheter Valves) 2A trial and TAVR patients from the PARTNER 2 SAPIEN 3 Intermediate Risk registry. PPM was classified as moderate if EOAi ≤0.85 cm2/m2 (≤0.70 if obese: body mass index ≥30 kg/m2) and severe if EOAi ≤0.65 cm2/m2 (≤0.55 if obese). PPMM was determined by the core lab-measured EOAi on 30-day echocardiogram. PPMP was determined by 2 methods: 1) using normal EOA reference values previously reported for each valve model and size (PPMP1; n = 929 SAVR, 1,069 TAVR) indexed to BSA; and 2) using normal reference EOA predicted from aortic annulus size measured by computed tomography (PPMP2; n = 864 TAVR only) indexed to BSA. Primary endpoint was the composite of 5-year all-cause death and rehospitalization. RESULTS The incidence of moderate and severe PPMP was much lower than PPMM in both SAVR (PPMP1: 28.4% and 1.2% vs. PPMM: 31.0% and 23.6%) and TAVR (PPMP1: 21.0% and 0.1% and PPMP2: 17.0% and 0% vs. PPMM: 27.9% and 5.7%). The incidence of severe PPMM and severe PPMP1 was lower in TAVR versus SAVR (P < 0.001). The presence of PPM by any method was associated with higher transprosthetic gradient. Severe PPMP1 was independently associated with events in SAVR after adjustment for sex and Society of Thoracic Surgeons score (hazard ratio: 3.18;95% CI: 1.69-5.96; P < 0.001), whereas no association was observed between PPM by any method and outcomes in TAVR. CONCLUSIONS EOAi measured by echocardiography results in a higher incidence of PPM following SAVR or TAVR than PPM based on predicted EOAi. Severe PPMP is rare (<1.5%), but is associated with increased all-cause death and rehospitalization after SAVR, whereas it is absent following TAVR.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study whether combining vital signs and electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis can improve early prognostication. METHODS This study analyzed 1258 adults with coronavirus disease 2019 who were seen at three hospitals in New York in March and April 2020. Electrocardiograms at presentation to the emergency department were systematically read by electrophysiologists. The primary outcome was a composite of mechanical ventilation or death 48 hours from diagnosis. The prognostic value of ECG abnormalities was assessed in a model adjusted for demographics, comorbidities, and vital signs. RESULTS At 48 hours, 73 of 1258 patients (5.8%) had died and 174 of 1258 (13.8%) were alive but receiving mechanical ventilation with 277 of 1258 (22.0%) patients dying by 30 days. Early development of respiratory failure was common, with 53% of all intubations occurring within 48 hours of presentation. In a multivariable logistic regression, atrial fibrillation/flutter (odds ratio [OR], 2.5; 95% CI, 1.1 to 6.2), right ventricular strain (OR, 2.7; 95% CI, 1.3 to 6.1), and ST segment abnormalities (OR, 2.4; 95% CI, 1.5 to 3.8) were associated with death or mechanical ventilation at 48 hours. In 108 patients without these ECG abnormalities and with normal respiratory vitals (rate <20 breaths/min and saturation >95%), only 5 (4.6%) died or required mechanical ventilation by 48 hours versus 68 of 216 patients (31.5%) having both ECG and respiratory vital sign abnormalities. CONCLUSION The combination of abnormal respiratory vital signs and ECG findings of atrial fibrillation/flutter, right ventricular strain, or ST segment abnormalities accurately prognosticates early deterioration in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 and may assist with patient triage.
