Short- and Long-Term Outcomes After Transcatheter or Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Chronic Lung Disease: An Analysis From the German Aortic Valve Registry.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Data from the German Aortic Valve Registry (GARY) were analysed to determine whether there are differences between patients with and without chronic lung disease (CLD) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) and whether TAVI or SAVR is more beneficial in patients with preexisting CLD.

Methods

Follow-up data from GARY registry patients treated from 2014 to 2015 and from 2018 to 2019 were incorporated in the analysis. Demographic results for each of the 2 treatment modalities were evaluated, and patients with and without CLD were compared. In a second step, variables that would have influenced the treatment decision in CLD patients in direction of either SAVR or TAVI were accounted for in the adjusted an
