Early Effect of Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair on Cardiac Sympathetic Nerve Activity.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Cardiac sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) is overactivated in heart failure patients and associated with clinical outcomes. The aim of this study is to investigate the early effect of MitraClip repair on cardiac SNA.

Methods

We evaluated the change of cardiac SNA by ¹²³I- meta-iodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scintigraphy in patients who underwent MitraClip repair from March 2019 to June 2020 in our hospital. Patients without acute procedural success were excluded, including patients who died or underwent mitral valve surgery before discharge. MIBG scintigraphy was performed at baseline and 1 month after MitraClip repair.

Results

We analyzed 48 patients (mean age 78.6 ± 10 years; 52.1% male; 37 secondary mitral regurgitation [SMR]/11 primary mitral regurgitation [PMR]). MR severity and New York Heart Association functional class significantly improved from baseline to 1 month after MitraClip repair (both p < 0.001). Overall, delay heart-mediastinum ratio (H/M) had no significant change, and washout rate (WR) showed a decreasing trend (delay H/M; pre 2.07 ± 0.46, post 2.05 ± 0.49, paired p = 0.348, WR; pre 36.1 ± 11.6%, post 33.6 ± 11.7%, paired p = 0.061). In PMR patients, WR was significantly decreased, however, delay H/M was not (delay H/M; pre 2.15 ± 0.50, post 2.10 ± 0.57, paired p = 0.019, WR; pre 34.6 ± 10.5%, post 26.7 ± 13.8%, paired p = 0.568). In contrast, in SMR patients, neither delay H/M nor WR were significantly changed (delay H/M; pre 2.05 ± 0.45, post 2.03 ± 0.47, paired p = 0.474, WR; pre 36.6 ± 11.9%, post 35.7 ± 10.4%, paired p = 0.523).

Conclusions

Our study demonstrates that MitraClip repair could significantly decrease cardiac SNA of WR in PMR patients during 1-month follow-up, however, in SMR patients, the significant change of MIBG parameters was not observed.

Project description:ImportanceThere are limited data on the outcomes of transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral valve repair for degenerative mitral regurgitation (MR) in a real-world setting.ObjectiveTo evaluate the outcomes of transcatheter mitral valve repair for degenerative MR.Design, setting, and participantsCohort study of consecutive patients in the Society of Thoracic Surgeons/American College of Cardiology Transcatheter Valve Therapies Registry who underwent nonemergent transcatheter mitral valve repair for degenerative MR in the US from 2014 through 2022.ExposureTranscatheter edge-to-edge mitral valve repair with the MitraClip device (Abbott).Main outcomes and measuresThe primary end point was MR success, defined as moderate or less residual MR and a mean mitral gradient of less than 10 mm Hg. Clinical outcomes were evaluated based on the degree of residual MR (mild or less MR or moderate MR) and mitral valve gradients (≤5 mm Hg or >5 to <10 mm Hg).ResultsA total of 19 088 patients with isolated moderate to severe or severe degenerative MR who underwent transcatheter mitral valve repair were analyzed (median age, 82 years; 48% women; median Society of Thoracic Surgeons predicted risk of mortality with surgical mitral valve repair, 4.6%). MR success was achieved in 88.9% of patients. At 30 days, the incidence of death was 2.7%; stroke, 1.2%; and mitral valve reintervention, 0.97%. MR success compared with an unsuccessful procedure was associated with significantly lower mortality (14.0% vs 26.7%; adjusted hazard ratio, 0.49; 95% CI, 0.42-0.56; P < .001) and heart failure readmission (8.4% vs 16.9%; adjusted hazard ratio, 0.47; 95% CI, 0.41-0.54; P < .001) at 1 year. Among patients with MR success, the lowest mortality was observed in patients who had both mild or less residual MR and mean mitral gradients of 5 mm Hg or less compared with those with an unsuccessful procedure (11.4% vs 26.7%; adjusted hazard ratio, 0.40; 95% CI, 0.34-0.47; P < .001).Conclusions and relevanceIn this registry-based study of patients with degenerative MR undergoing transcatheter mitral valve repair, the procedure was safe and resulted in successful repair in 88.9% of patients. The lowest mortality was observed in patients with mild or less residual MR and low mitral gradients.
