Association of iron deficiency, anaemia, and functional outcomes in patients undergoing edge-to-edge mitral valve repair.

ABSTRACT: AIMS:Patients undergoing percutaneous mitral valve repair (PMVR) show a substantial heterogeneity of prognostic and symptomatic benefit. Iron deficiency and anaemia are associated with worse outcomes in heart failure patients. We investigated the impact of these comorbidities on functional and clinical outcome after PMVR. METHODS AND RESULTS:Iron deficiency and anaemia were prospectively assessed in 130 patients undergoing PMVR with MitraClip. Associations with functional outcomes at 6 weeks [6 min walking distance (6MWD), Short-Form-36 physical component score, and Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire score, New York Heart Association class] and long-term clinical outcome were examined. Iron deficiency and anaemia were frequent with 52% and 50%, respectively. Patients with anaemia showed significant worse baseline functional measures, whereas patients with iron deficiency showed only a trend for lower baseline 6MWD. The benefit in functional outcomes after PMVR was notable and did not differ significantly by iron deficiency or anaemia status (range of median changes in 6MWD 35 to 45 m, physical component score 5.6 to 7.2, Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire -8.0 to -10.5; improvement of ?1 New York Heart Association class 69% to 80%). Anaemia was associated with higher risk for the combined endpoint of mortality and heart failure hospitalization (hazard ratio: 2.51; 95% confidence interval: 1.24-5.1; P = 0.01), whereas iron deficiency showed a trend towards more heart failure hospitalizations (hazard ratio: 2.94; 95% confidence interval: 0.94-9.03; P = 0.09). CONCLUSIONS:The prevalence of iron deficiency and anaemia is high in patients undergoing MitraClip. Clinical baseline status and long-term outcome were worse particularly in patients with anaemia. However, the functional benefit of PMVR was equal in patients with and without iron deficiency and anaemia.

Project description:BackgroundThe MitraClip procedure was established as a therapeutic alternative to mitral valve surgery for symptomatic patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) at prohibitive surgical risk. In this study, the aim was to evaluate 5-year outcomes after MitraClip.MethodsConsecutive patients undergoing the MitraClip system were prospectively included. All patients underwent clinical follow-up and transthoracic echocardiography.ResultsTwo hundred sixty-five patients (age: 81.4 ± 8.1 years, 46.7% female, logistic EuroSCORE: 19.7 ± 16.7%) with symptomatic MR (60.5% secondary MR [sMR]). Although high procedural success of 91.3% was found, patients with primary MR (pMR) had a higher rate of procedural failure (sMR: 3.1%, pMR: 8.6%; p = 0.04). Five years after the MitraClip procedure, the majority of patients presented with reduced symptoms and improved functional capacity (functional NYHA class: p = 0.0001; 6 minutes walking test: p = 0.04). Sustained MR reduction (≤ grade 2) was found in 74% of patients, and right ventricular (RV) function was significantly increased (p = 0.03). Systolic pulmonary artery pressure (sPAP) was significantly reduced during follow-up only in sMR patients (p = 0.05, p = 0.3). Despite a pronounced clinical and echocardiographical amelioration and low interventional failure, 5-year mortality was significantly higher in patients with sMR (p = 0.05). The baseline level of creatinine (HR: 0.695), sPAP (HR: 0.96) and mean mitral valve gradient (MVG) (HR: 0.82) were found to be independent predictors for poor functional outcome and mortality.ConclusionsTranscatheter mitral valve repair with the MitraClip system showed low complication rates and sustained MR reduction with improved RV function and sPAP 5 years after the procedure was found in all patients, predominantly in patients with sMR. Despite pronounced functional amelioration with low procedure failure, sMR patients had higher 5-year mortality and worse outcomes. Baseline creatinine, MVG, and sPAP were found to be independent predictors of poor functional outcomes and 5-year mortality.
