ABSTRACT: Background
Myval is a balloon-expandable valve (BEV) used in transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) with distinguished features. Data comparing Myval with contemporary transcatheter heart valves (THVs) is limited. The authors performed a meta-analysis of studies comparing Myval with contemporary THVs (Sapien series and Evolut series).Methods
The authors searched PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases. The primary composite endpoint of early safety (freedom from death and major complications) and other outcomes were extracted as defined by the Valve Academic Research Consortium 3 (VARC 3). The authors computed risk ratios (RRs) with 95% CIs using a Mantel-Haenszel method with a random-effects model with Review Manager (Cochrane Collaboration).Results
