Impact of Perioperative Stroke on Mid Term Outcomes after Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement.
CONCLUSIONS: Stroke increases short term and mid-term mortality following TAVR. Risk prediction for neurologic events in TAVR could aid framework for patient selection, further improving outcomes. PMID: 32151578 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Transapical Aortic Valve Replacement for Severe Aortic Stenosis: Results From the Nonrandomized Continued Access Cohort of the PARTNER Trial.
CONCLUSIONS: Among the 975 patients in the NRCA-TA cohort, rates of major outcomes including death and stroke compared favorably with outcomes of PMA-TA and SAVR patients enrolled in the PARTNER trial. This trend toward improved outcomes may be attributed to improved patient selection, individual centers surmounting the procedural learning curve, and refinements in surgical technique.

Cognition and Cerebral Infarction in Older Adults After Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement.
CONCLUSIONS: In high-risk, aged participants undergoing surgical AVR for aortic stenosis, post-operative cognitive dysfunction was surprisingly limited and was resolved by 1-year in most. Post-operative cognitive dysfunction at 4-6 weeks was associated with more and larger acute cerebral infarcts. PMID: 30423336 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Use of Transaortic, Transapical, and Transcarotid Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Inoperable Patients.
CONCLUSIONS: Less than half of patients deemed appropriate for posttrial TAVR were candidates for TF implantation. The use of all available access routes leads to excellent outcomes in patients deemed inoperable. PMID: 23972931 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement Versus Aortic Valve Bypass: A Comparison of Outcomes and Economics.
CONCLUSIONS: TAVR and AVB relieve aortic stenosis and have similar and acceptable procedural mortality rates. AVB-treated patients had 1.75 times the STS risk score when compared with the TAVR cohort. Hospital charges for TAVR were nearly twofold those of AVB. Hospital reimbursement was similar, but AVB had two to four times the profit margin of TAVR. Longer follow-up for the TAVR cohort will determine whether survival is comparable to that after AVB at 3 and 5 years. PMID: 26365675 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Bicuspid Aortic Insufficiency With Aortic Root Aneurysm: Root Reimplantation Versus Bentall Root Replacement.
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with bicuspid aortic valve AI with root aneurysm, primary cusp repair with root reimplantation achieves equivalent midterm outcomes compared with Bentall root replacement. PMID: 27261086 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Aortic Valve Replacement in the Moderately Elevated Risk Patient: A Population-Based Analysis of Outcomes.
CONCLUSIONS: This population-based contemporary assessment suggests moderate-risk patients undergoing AVR experience favorable outcomes. Although increasing PROM is important in preoperative evaluation of risk, preexisting pulmonary hypertension and indication for operation are among other factors that should be considered as TAVR expands into this group of patients.

Association Between Red Blood Cell Transfusion and Clinical Outcomes Among Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement.
CONCLUSIONS: PRBC transfusion in patients undergoing TAVR is associated with an increased incidence of adverse outcomes during hospitalization, at 30-day and 1-year follow-up. PMID: 30552884 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Minimally Invasive versus Full Sternotomy for Isolated Aortic Valve Replacement in Low-risk Patients
CONCLUSIONS: For patients at low risk for isolated surgery, MI and FS approaches were associated with similar in-hospital and 1-year outcomes.PMID:34958771 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2021.11.048

Transcatheter vs Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement in Pure Native Aortic Regurgitation
CONCLUSIONS: In Medicare patients with pure native AR, TAVR with the current commercially available transcatheter valves has comparable short-term outcomes. Although long-term outcomes were inferior to SAVR, the possibility of residual confounding, biasing long-term outcomes, given older and frailer TAVR patients, cannot be excluded.PMID:36967709 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2022.09.016
