Impact of Right Heart Failure on Outcomes of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: Insights from the National Inpatient Sample.

ABSTRACT: Background: There are limited data on the impact of right heart failure (RHF) on patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). We investigated the mortality, in-hospital complications, length of stay, and total hospitalization charges for TAVI admissions, with and without RHF. Methods: We analyzed the National Inpatient Sample data from 2018 to 2022. The International Classification of Diseases-Tenth Revision (ICD-10) codes were used to define the patient cohorts. Propensity score weighting was used to balance patient demographic, hospital-level, and comorbidity data. Results: From 2018 to 2022, there were 383,860 TAVI admissions, among which 1915 (0.50%) had the presence of RHF. Compared to patients without RHF, mortality was higher in patients w
