Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index Assessment in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) is used to treat patients with mitral regurgitation (MR). The Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) is a well-known nutritional marker that predicts mortality risk.

Objectives

The objectives of this study were to elucidate the clinical association between the degree of GNRI and different etiologies of MR and to clarify the patient samples for whom GNRI is more relevant to clinical outcomes following TEER.

Methods

Data from 3,554 patients with MR who underwent TEER were analyzed using a Japanese multicenter registry. The patients were classified into 4 groups: GNRI <82, GNRI 82 to 92, GNRI 92 to 98, and GNRI >98. Procedural and clinical outcomes were compared between GNRI groups. Short- and long-term all-cause morta
