Transcatheter aortic valve replacement in patients with pure native aortic valve regurgitation: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: This systematic review and meta-analysis sought to summarize the available evidence on the use of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in patients with Native Aortic Valve Regurgitation (NAVR) and compare outcomes between first and second generation valves. Owing to the improvements in transcatheter heart valve design and procedural success, TAVR has become increasingly performed in broader aortic valve pathologies. We searched Medline, Embase, Cochrane, and Scopus databases from 2007 to 2018 and performed a systematic review on reports with at least 10 patients with aortic valve regurgitation undergoing TAVR procedure. The main outcome of interest was all-cause mortality at 30 days. A total of 638 patients across 12 studies were included. Mean age ranged from 68 to 84. Society of Thoracic Surgeons score ranged from 5.4% to 13.1% and Logistic EuroSCORE ranged from 18.2% to 33%. The incidence rate of all-cause mortality at 30 days was found to be 11% (95% CI 7%-16%; I2 = 20.86%). All-cause mortality at 30 days for first generation valves had an incidence rate of 15% (95% CI 10%-20%; I2 = 10%) compared to 7% (95% CI 3%-13%; I2 = 37%) in second generation valves with subgroup interaction analysis P = 0.059. Device success incidence rate in second generation valves was 92% (95% CI 83%-99%; I2 = 67%) vs 68% (95% CI 59%-77%; I2 = 53%) in first generation valves with P = 0.001. TAVR appears to be a feasible treatment choice for NAVR patients at high risk for surgical valve replacement. Second generation valves show promising results in terms of short-term outcomes.

Project description:BackgroundAccumulated experience and advances in device technology have led to the increasing off-label use of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for pure native aortic valve regurgitation (PNAR). This study aimed to evaluate the procedural and long-term outcomes of using newer-generation transcatheter heart valves (THVs) versus early-generation self-expanding CoreValve (Medtronic, Minneapolis, USA) to treat PNAR.MethodsTAVRs were performed with the use of early- (N=15) and newer-generation (N=10) THVs in a total of 25 consecutive PNAR patients at an intermediate-to-high risk for surgical aortic valve replacement [mean Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) score of 6.8±4.5]. Procedural and clinical outcomes were reported according to the Valve Academic Research Consortium 2 criteria. The primary end-point of the study was all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction (MI), disabling stroke, and readmission due to heart failure.ResultsThe device success rate of the newer-generation THVs was significantly higher than that of the early-generation CoreValve (100% vs. 33%, P<0.01), which was mainly driven by less frequent need for implanting a second THV (0% vs. 53%, P<0.01). Although the procedural success rates were 100% for both early- and newer-generation valves, the mean procedure fluoroscopic times which the newer-generation device group required, were significantly shorter (P<0.01) and the amount of contrast medium used in this group, markedly smaller (P<0.01), compared to those of the early-generation CoreValve group. During a median follow-up of 14 months, event-free survival was better in patients undergoing TAVR with the newer-generation THVs, although the differences were not statistically significant (log-rank test, P=0.137). According to multivariate analysis, a higher baseline STS score and longer intensive care unit stays are independent predictors of adverse outcomes.ConclusionsEvidently, the treatment of PNAR with TAVR using the newer-generation THVs yielded better procedural outcomes and is a valuable therapeutic option in selective patients.KeywordsTranscatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR); pure native aortic regurgitation (AR); transcatheter heart valves (THVs); procedural and clinical outcomes.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a fundamentally new procedure for the treatment of native aortic regurgitation (AR). The number of cases needed to gain proficiency with the procedure is unknown. HYPOTHESIS:This study aimed to evaluate the learning curve for TAVR for native AR. METHODS:This study retrospectively reviewed a prospective database from 134 consecutive native AR patients who underwent the J-valve TAVR system, which performed by a single team interventional cardiologist. The cumulative sum (CUSUM) method was used to analyze the learning curve. Patients were divided into two groups in chronological order, defined by the surgeon's early (group 1: the first 52 cases) and skilled (group 2: the next 82 cases) experience. Demographic data, intraoperative characteristics, and short-term surgical outcomes were compared between the two groups. RESULTS:CUSUM plots revealed decreasing procedure time and fluoroscopy time after patients 52 and 43, respectively. The patient date consistently demonstrated that high-risk scores and major perioperative parameters were comparable between the two groups. The use of contrast dye (group 1, 94.22?±?30.07?mL; group 2, 70.43?±?15.02?mL, P<.05), total procedure time (group 1, 84.96?± 17.76?minutes; group 2, 59.95?±?12.83?minutes, P<.05), and fluoroscopy time (group 1, 11.52?± 3.81?minutes; group 2, 6.47?±?1.53?minutes, P<.05) were significantly reduced in group 2. The overall device success rate in group 1 was 96.2% vs 96.3% in group 2 and remained high (P = 1.0). The overall 30-day mortality was 3.8% in group 2 (group 1, 0 to group 2, 3.8%; P = .16). The complications rate, such as pulmonary hypertension, chronic kidney disease, and coronary artery disease were higher in group 2. CONCLUSIONS:For a surgeon without previous TAVR experience, 52 cases of performance is the minimal requirement to gain the proficiency of TAVR for native AR. The skilled surgeons have been observed with reduced procedural time, fluoroscopy times, radiation exposure dose, and contrast volume usage. However, the overall prognosis was not significantly different between the two groups.
