Impact of post-procedural length of stay on short-term outcomes and readmissions after TAVR and MitraClip.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Post-procedural hospital length of stay (P-LOS) is an important determinant of cost-related outcomes. In the present study, we aimed to assess the impact of P-LOS on short-term outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and MitraClip.

Methods

We performed a retrospective cohort study, retrieving data from the National Readmissions Database (NRD) for patients who underwent transfemoral TAVR and MitraClip between January 2014 and December 2017. We employed multivariable logistic regression to evaluate the association between P-LOS and 30-day all-cause mortality and readmissions.

Results

A total of 65,726 and 7347 patients underwent TAVR and MitraClip, respectively within the study period. After 30 days of discharge, 13.7% and 15.1% of TAVR a
