Abstract
AIMS Significant changes in tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and mitral regurgitation (MR) post-cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) are increasingly recognized. However, uncertainty remains as to whether the risk of CIED-associated TR and MR differs with right ventricular pacing (RVP) via CIED with trans-tricuspid RV leads, compared with cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), conduction system pacing (CSP), and leadless pacing (LP). The study aims to synthesize extant data on risk and prognosis of significant post-CIED TR and MR across pacing strategies. METHODS AND RESULTS We searched PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases published until 31 October 2023. Significant post-CIED TR and MR were defined as ≥ moderate. Fifty-seven TR studies (n = 13 723 patients) and 90 MR studies (n = 14 387 patients) were included. For all CIED, the risk of post-CIED TR increased [pooled odds ratio (OR) = 2.46 and 95% CI = 1.88-3.22], while the risk of post-CIED MR reduced (OR = 0.74, 95% CI = 0.58-0.94) after 12 and 6 months of median follow-up, respectively. Right ventricular pacing via CIED with trans-tricuspid RV leads was associated with increased risk of post-CIED TR (OR = 4.54, 95% CI = 3.14-6.57) and post-CIED MR (OR = 2.24, 95% CI = 1.18-4.26). Binarily, CSP did not alter TR risk (OR = 0.37, 95% CI = 0.13-1.02), but significantly reduced MR (OR = 0.15, 95% CI = 0.03-0.62). Cardiac resynchronization therapy did not significantly change TR risk (OR = 1.09, 95% CI = 0.55-2.17), but significantly reduced MR with prevalence pre-CRT of 43%, decreasing post-CRT to 22% (OR = 0.49, 95% CI = 0.40-0.61). There was no significant association of LP with post-CIED TR (OR = 1.15, 95% CI = 0.83-1.59) or MR (OR = 1.31, 95% CI = 0.72-2.39). Cardiac implantable electronic device-associated TR was independently predictive of all-cause mortality [pooled hazard ratio (HR) = 1.64, 95% CI = 1.40-1.90] after median of 53 months. Mitral regurgitation persisting post-CRT independently predicted all-cause mortality (HR = 2.00, 95% CI = 1.57-2.55) after 38 months. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that, when possible, adoption of pacing strategies that avoid isolated trans-tricuspid RV leads may be beneficial in preventing incident or deteriorating atrioventricular valvular regurgitation and might reduce mortality.

Persistence of significant secondary mitral regurgitation post-cardiac resynchronization therapy and survival: a systematic review and meta-analysis : Mitral regurgitation and mortality post-CRT. Heart Fail Rev 2024; 29:165-178. [PMID: 37855988 DOI: 10.1007/s10741-023-10359-6] [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] [Accepted: 10/05/2023] [Indexed: 10/20/2023]
Abstract
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) significantly reduces secondary mitral regurgitation (MR) in patients with severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction. However, uncertainty remains as to whether improvement in secondary MR correlates with improvement with mortality seen in CRT. We conducted a meta-analysis to determine the association of persistent unimproved significant secondary MR (defined as moderate or moderate-to-severe or severe MR) compared to improved MR (no MR or mild MR) post-CRT with all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, and heart failure hospitalization. A systematic search of PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases till July 31, 2022 identified studies reporting clinical outcomes by post-CRT secondary MR status. In 12 prospective studies of 4954 patients (weighted mean age 66.8 years, men 77.8%), the median duration of follow-up post-CRT at which patients were re-evaluated for significant secondary MR was 6 months and showed significant relative risk reduction of 30% compared to pre-CRT. The median duration of follow-up post-CRT for ascertainment of main clinical outcomes was 38 months. The random effects pooled hazard ratio (95% confidence interval) of all-cause mortality in patients with unimproved secondary MR compared to improved secondary MR was 2.00 (1.57-2.55); p < 0.001). There was insufficient data to evaluate secondary outcomes in a meta-analysis, but limited data that examined the relationship showed significant association of unimproved secondary MR with increased cardiovascular mortality and heart failure hospitalization. The findings of this meta-analysis suggest that lack of improvement in secondary MR post-CRT is associated with significantly elevated risk of all-cause mortality and possibly cardiovascular mortality and heart failure hospitalization. Future studies may investigate approaches to address persistent secondary MR post-CRT to help improved outcome in this population.
