Prevalence, Predictors, and Mid-Term Outcomes of Non-Home Discharge After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation.

ABSTRACT: Background: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has been widely used as a valued alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement. In cardiovascular surgeries, discharge disposition has been widely investigated. We examined the prevalence and predictors of non-home discharge after TAVI, and the prognosis based on discharge destination. Methods and Results: We retrospectively analyzed 732 consecutive patients undergoing TAVI, and divided them into 2 groups: the home group (discharged directly home; n=678 [92.6%]) and the non-home group (n=54 [7.4%]). From baseline and procedural characteristics, peripheral artery disease (PAD; odds ratio [OR] 2.73; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.25-5.97; P=0.012), previous stroke (OR 2.57; 95% CI 1.03-6.45; P=0.045), a
