Trends, Predictors, and Outcomes of 30-Day Readmission With Heart Failure After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement: Insights From the US Nationwide Readmission Database.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND Data on trends, predictors, and outcomes of heart failure (HF) readmissions after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) remain limited. Moreover, the relationship between hospital TAVR discharge volume and HF readmission outcomes has not been established. METHODS AND RESULTS The Nationwide Readmission Database was used to identify 30-day readmissions for HF after TAVR from October 1, 2015, to November 30, 2018, using International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) codes. A total of 167 345 weighted discharges following TAVR were identified. The all-cause readmission rate within 30 days of discharge was 11.4% (19 016). Of all the causes of 30-day rehospitalizations, HF comprised 31.4% (5962) of all causes. The 30-d
