ABSTRACT:

Background

Population-based data on bicuspid aortic valve (BAV)-attributable mortality trends in the United States are limited. This study assessed trends in BAV-attributable death in the United States from 2010 to 2020, evaluating differences by sex, ethnicity, urbanization, and census region.

Methods

Data were extracted from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Wide-Ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research system. Trends in age-adjusted mortality rates per 100 000 population were analyzed using JoinPoint regression to calculate average annual percentage change and annual percentage change, with corresponding 95% CIs.

Results

From 2010 and 2020, 3537 deaths were attributable to BAV, corresponding to 11.7 deaths per 100 000 population. Age-adjusted m
