Long-term age-stratified outcomes after surgical and transcatheter aortic valve replacement: a Dutch cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

While randomised trials have shown that surgical and transcutaneous aortic valve replacement/implantation (SAVR/TAVI) have similar short- to mid-term outcomes, long-term outcome data are scarce. Additionally, no large-scale long-term follow-up data from Dutch databases and TAVI centres have been reported to inform national guidelines.

Methods

We retrospectively analysed baseline characteristics, 5‑year mortality and re-intervention rates of patients undergoing isolated SAVR or TAVI, stratified by age (65-75, 75-80 and > 80 years old) in the Netherlands Heart Registry.

Results

From 2013 through 2021, 7879 SAVR patients (median age: 73.0 years; interquartile range (IQR): 69.0-77.0; 43.7% female) and 14,461 TAVI patients (median age: 81.0 years; IQR: 77.0-84.0
