Yu Q, Fu Q, Xia Y, Wu Y. Predictors, clinical impact, and management strategies for conduction abnormalities after transcatheter aortic valve replacement: an updated review. Front Cardiovasc Med 2024; 11:1370244. [PMID: 38650916 PMCID: PMC11033487 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2024.1370244] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2024] [Accepted: 03/27/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has increasingly become a safe, feasible, and widely accepted alternative surgical treatment for patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis. However, the incidence of conduction abnormalities associated with TAVR, including left bundle branch block (LBBB) and high-degree atrioventricular block (HAVB), remains high and is often correlated with risk factors such as the severity of valvular calcification, preexisting conditions in patients, and procedural factors. The existing research results on the impact of post-TAVR conduction abnormalities and permanent pacemaker (PPM) requirements on prognosis, including all-cause mortality and rehospitalization, remain contradictory, with varied management strategies for post-TAVR conduction system diseases across different institutions. This review integrates the latest research in the field, offering a comprehensive discussion of the mechanisms, risk factors, consequences, and management of post-TAVR conduction abnormalities. This study provides insights into optimizing patient prognosis and explores the potential of novel strategies, such as conduction system pacing, to minimize the risk of adverse clinical outcomes.

Early Safety and Performance of the Premounted Dry-Pericardium Vienna Self-Expandable Transcatheter Aortic Valve System: 30-Day Outcomes of the First-in-Human VIVA Feasibility Study. Am J Cardiol 2023; 204:302-311. [PMID: 37567022 DOI: 10.1016/j.amjcard.2023.07.109] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2023] [Revised: 07/15/2023] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023]
Abstract
The purpose of this first-in-human (FIH) study was to determine the safety and feasibility of the transfemoral premounted dry-pericardium Vienna Self-Expandable Supra-Annular Aortic Valve System. This novel system is repositionable and retrievable and comes already premounted on the delivery system, eliminating the need for assembly and crimping of the device before valve implantation. This is a prospective, nonrandomized, single-arm, single-center, first-stage FIH feasibility study, which will be followed by a second-stage pivotal, multicenter, multinational study in symptomatic patients with severe aortic stenosis. The first-stage FIH study evaluated the safety and feasibility of the device in 10 patients with severe aortic stenosis based on recommendations by the Valve Academic Research Consortium-2 for transcatheter aortic valve implantations. The mean patient age was 79 ± 5 years, 60% were male, and all patients were in New York Heart Association functional class II to III. The primary safety end point was successful when all patients were alive at 30-day follow-up. Device and technical success were observed in all patients. Two patients had a stroke, 1 of which occurred 5 days after the procedure. New permanent pacemakers were implanted in 2 patients (22.2%), of which only 1 was because of complete heart block. Only 1 patient (10%) had moderate paravalvular leak at 30 days. After the procedure, the mean aortic valve gradient decreased from 48.7 ± 10.8 mm Hg to 8.8 ± 4.3 mm Hg. In conclusion, this FIH feasibility study demonstrates successful procedural feasibility, with no 30-day mortality and favorable valve hemodynamic performance, leading to an improvement in quality of life.

Abstract
AIMS Permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI) still limits the expansion of indications for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Comparison between different systems remains scarce. We aimed to determine the impact of the device type used on post-TAVI PPI. METHODS AND RESULTS A systematic literature review was performed to identify studies reporting the use of balloon-expandable valve (BEV), self-expandable valve (SEV), and mechanically expandable valve (MEV) and post-TAVI PPI. A network meta-analysis was used to compare TAVI mechanisms (Analysis A) and transcatheter heart valves (Analysis B) with respect to post-TAVI PPI. Analysis A included 40 181 patients with a pooled PPI rate of 19.2% in BEV, 24.7% in SEV, and 34.8% in MEV. Balloon-expandable valve showed lower risk compared to either SEV or MEV and SEV demonstrated lower risk for PPI than MEV. Implantation of BEV was associated with 39% and 62% lower PPI rate with respect to SEV and MEV. Implantation of SEV was associated with 38% lower PPI rate with respect to MEV. Analysis B included 36.143 patients with the lowest pooled PPI rate of 9.6% for Acurate Neo or others, and the highest pooled PPI rate of 34.3% for Lotus. CoreValve, Evolut Portico, and Lotus influenced significantly PPI rate, while Sapien group did not. CONCLUSION Implantation of BEV and also SEV were associated with lower post-TAVI PPI rate, while MEV were associated with higher post-TAVI PPI. Patient tailored-approach including devices characteristics may help to reduce post-TAVI PPI and to allow TAVI to take the leap towards extension of use in younger patients.

Abstract
Since its introduction at the beginning of the century, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has implicated a paradigm shift in the treatment of patients with symptomatic aortic valve stenosis. The past years have brought about major improvements of procedural outcomes owing to advances in imaging and patient selection, global experience, and device technology. Whereas in the early stages of TAVR, only two different devices with limited sizes and access options were used, currently a variety of different transcatheter heart valves (THVs) are available. This has expanded the spectrum of patients that can be treated with TAVR and has allowed for sophisticated device selection tailored to the patients' individual anatomy and comorbidities. The big question is whether such a customized device selection is really necessary-or is there one valve type that fits all patients? With this question in mind, the authors provide an overview of contemporary THVs, including technical specifications and clinical data, that help us to understand the potential value of a differential use of THVs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess the safety and performance of a newly introduced transfemoral self-expanding supra-annular transcatheter heart valve. BACKGROUND Transcatheter aortic valve replacement has become an established procedure, and newer transcatheter heart valves aim to supplement the current armamentarium. METHODS BIOVALVE-I is a prospective, single-center feasibility study enrolling 13 high-risk patients with severe aortic stenosis, and BIOVALVE-II is a multicenter pilot study enrolling a further 55 patients under the same protocol. RESULTS Patients' mean age was 82.4 ± 5.3 years, 57.4% had concomitant coronary artery disease, 50.0% had renal insufficiency stage ≥3, 32.4% had diabetes mellitus, 29.4% had current anemia, 19.1% had chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, 19.1% were frail, and 17.6% had prior cerebrovascular events. The primary endpoint, early safety according to the Valve Academic Research Consortium-2 guidelines, was observed in 13 patients (19.1%). One patient (1.5%) died through 30 days of a noncardiac cause, and 4 patients (7.8%) died through 180 days. Disabling stroke occurred at 30 days in 1 patient (1.5%) and at 180 days in 2 patients (3.2%). New permanent pacemakers up to 30 days were implanted in 9 patients (13.4%). Two patients (3.8%) had moderate or severe paravalvular leakage at 30 days and 4 (9.1%) at 6 months, mean effective orifice area was 2.0 ± 0.4 cm2 and 1.9 ± 0.5 cm2, and mean gradient was 6.4 mm Hg at 30 days and 6 months. CONCLUSIONS Clinical outcomes with the Biovalve self-expanding transcatheter heart valve were similar to those seen in other first-in-human studies with first-generation devices for severe aortic stenosis.

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement in atypical valve anatomy using the Lotus valve : A Chinese single-center experience. Herz 2019; 46:63-70. [PMID: 30694372 PMCID: PMC7862532 DOI: 10.1007/s00059-018-4778-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2018] [Revised: 10/28/2018] [Accepted: 12/09/2018] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND In the West, the safety and efficacy of the Lotus valve have been demonstrated; however, data in the Chinese population are still lacking. Few studies have compared the clinical outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with the Lotus valve in patients with bicuspid or tricuspid aortic valve stenosis. Our aim was to assess TAVR outcomes with the Lotus aortic valve in a Chinese patient cohort. METHODS In total, 23 symptomatic, high-surgical risk patients with severe aortic valve stenosis were enrolled. Among them, nine patients (39%) had bicuspid aortic valves, and three patients had a large annulus dimension. The Lotus valve was successfully implanted in all patients. To facilitate accurate positioning, partial re-sheathing was attempted in ten patients (43.5%), while one patient had a full retrieval. One-year clinical follow-up was completed in all patients. RESULTS There were no deaths, strokes, or major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events in 22 of the 23 patients at 30 days; the all-cause mortality rate at 1 year was 4.4% (1 of 23 patients). The mean aortic valve gradient decreased from 51.5 ± 8.8 mm Hg at baseline to 13.4 ± 4.9 mm Hg (p < 0.001) and the valve area increased from 0.6 ± 0.2 cm2 to 1.5 ± 0.4 cm2 (p < 0.001) at 30 days. Paravalvular leakage was absent or mild (22%), and no patient had severe paravalvular leakage. Six patients (26.1%) required a postprocedural pacemaker. There was no difference regarding the procedural and the 1‑year outcomes between patients with bicuspid and tricuspid aortic valve stenosis. CONCLUSION Our single-center experience demonstrated that the Lotus valve is feasible and effective for Chinese patients with aortic valve stenosis, including atypical cases with bicuspid aortic valves or large aortic annulus size.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to conduct a weighted meta-analysis to determine the rates of acute (≤30days) major outcomes after (TAVR) with second-generation devices. METHODS A comprehensive search of multiple electronic databases from January 2011 to May 2017 was conducted using predefined criteria. New-generation TAVR devices were defined as any device which received CE mark approval or is still under evaluation for CE marking after CoreValve and SAPIEN XT prostheses. RESULTS A total of 37 studies including 10,822 patients met inclusion criteria and were included in the analysis. Devices investigated in the studies were the following: SAPIEN 3 (n=5423, 45.9%), Lotus Valve (n=3007, %), Portico (n=130, 1.1%), JenaValve (n=345, 2.9%), Symetis Acurate (n=1314, 11,1%), and Evolut R (n=1603, 13.6%). Thirty-day all-cause and cardiovascular 30-day death were 2.2% (95% CI: 1.6% to 2.8%) and 1.6% (95% CI: 0.9% to 2.3%), respectively; Any stroke and major/disabling stroke occurred at a pooled estimate rate of 2.6% (95% CI: 2.0% to 3.3%) and 0.9% (95% CI: 0.2% to 1.6%), respectively; life-threatening bleeding, 3.9% (95% CI: 2.9% to 5.0%); major vascular complications, 4.5% (95% CI: 3.7% to 5.4%); pacemaker implantation, 16.2% (95% CI: 12.7% to 19.6%); more than mild aortic regurgitation, 1.6% (95% CI: 0.9 to 2.3). CONCLUSIONS Second-generation TAVR devices are associated with very low mortality and major complications rates at 30-day, and improved prosthesis performance with <2% of patients having more than mild post-procedural aortic regurgitation. On the other hand, the need for pacemaker implantation seems to remain an unresolved issue, and warrants further investigation.
