Comparison of contemporary transcatheter heart valve prostheses: data from the German Aortic Valve Registry (GARY).

ABSTRACT:

Background

Various second-generation transcatheter heart valve (THV) prostheses with high clinical efficacy and safety are available, but there is limited large-scale data available comparing their hemodynamic performance and clinical implications.

Objective

To compare the hemodynamic performance and short-term clinical outcome of four second-generation THV prostheses.

Methods

24,124 patients out of the German Aortic Valve Registry who underwent transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) (Evolut™ R n = 7028, Acurate neo™ n = 2922, Portico n = 878 and Sapien 3 n = 13,296) were included in this analysis. Propensity-score weighted analysis was performed to control for differences in age, left ventricular function, STS score and sex. Primary endpoint was
