Incidence, Timing, and Causes of Late Bleeding After TAVR in an Asian Cohort.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Data regarding the incidence, predictive factors, and clinical outcomes of post-transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) bleeding is limited in the Asian cohort.

Objectives

This study sought to assess the predictors and prognostic impact of post-TAVR late bleeding.

Methods

This study used the Japanese multicenter registry data to analyze 2,518 patients (mean age: 84.3 ± 5.2 years) who underwent TAVR. Late bleeding was defined as any postdischarge bleeding events after TAVR. Baseline characteristics, predictive factors, and clinical outcomes including death and rehospitalization were assessed in patients with and without late bleeding events.

Results

The cumulative incidence rate of all and major late bleeding and ischemic stroke were 7.4%, 5.2%,
