Abstract
Importance
Although transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) outcomes in the US have improved substantially since 2011, it is unknown whether these trends have continued since 2019.
Objective
To examine changes in risk-adjusted TAVR outcomes from 2019 to 2022 and to examine any noteworthy trends over time.
Design, Setting, and Participants
This cohort study examined data from patients with severe aortic stenosis treated with TAVR at 786 US hospitals between January 1, 2019, and March 31, 2022, included in the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS)/American College of Cardiology (ACC) Transcatheter Valve Therapies (TVT) Registry.
Exposure
Patients who underwent TAVR.
Main Outcomes and Measures
The primary outcome was 30-day mortality, and the secondary outcomes were in-hospital mortality and 30-day composite adverse events. To understand factors explaining these trends, a series of logistic regression models was constructed for each outcome, with time as the primary explanatory variable. After adjusting for changing patent characteristics and procedural factors, a series of exploratory analyses was performed to examine the extent to which these findings could be explained by several plausible hypotheses.
Results
This study's analytic cohort included a total of 210 495 patients. Median (IQR) patient age was 79 (73-85) years, and 91 313 patients (43.4%) were female. Median (IQR) STS predicted risk of mortality (PROM) was 3.3% (2.0%-5.3%). There were no significant changes in unadjusted 30-day mortality from quarter 1 of 2019 (2.4%) to the end of quarter 1 of 2022 (2.2%) (P for trend = .10), with an unadjusted odds ratio (OR) for time of 0.98 per year (95% CI, 0.94-1.01). After adjusting for patient characteristics, the OR increased to 1.05 per year (95% CI, 1.02-1.08), which increased further after adjusting for procedural characteristics to 1.09 per year (95% CI, 1.05-1.13). In exploratory analyses, there were no meaningful changes in the adjusted odds of death after excluding sites that entered the STS/ACC TVT Registry in 2019 or later (OR, 1.09; 95% CI, 1.05-1.13), low-volume sites (OR, 1.09; 95% CI, 1.06-1.13), low-risk patients (OR, 1.11; 95% CI, 1.07-1.15), patients with a bicuspid aortic valve (OR, 1.09; 95% CI, 1.05-1.13), in-hospital deaths (OR, 1.08; 95% CI, 1.03-1.14), or patients who experienced a major vascular complication (OR, 1.09; 95% CI, 1.05-1.12).
Conclusions and Relevance
In this observational cohort study performing a national analysis of outcomes after TAVR, it was found that risk-adjusted 30-day mortality increased modestly from January 2019 to March 2022. However, no site-level, patient-related, or process-related factors were identified that could explain these findings. Although the absolute increase in risk-adjusted mortality during the study period was relatively small, these findings warrant continued surveillance.

期刊介绍:
JAMA Cardiology, an international peer-reviewed journal, serves as the premier publication for clinical investigators, clinicians, and trainees in cardiovascular medicine worldwide. As a member of the JAMA Network, it aligns with a consortium of peer-reviewed general medical and specialty publications.
Published online weekly, every Wednesday, and in 12 print/online issues annually, JAMA Cardiology attracts over 4.3 million annual article views and downloads. Research articles become freely accessible online 12 months post-publication without any author fees. Moreover, the online version is readily accessible to institutions in developing countries through the World Health Organization's HINARI program.
Positioned at the intersection of clinical investigation, actionable clinical science, and clinical practice, JAMA Cardiology prioritizes traditional and evolving cardiovascular medicine, alongside evidence-based health policy. It places particular emphasis on health equity, especially when grounded in original science, as a top editorial priority.
