摘要
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has become an established alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR) for patients with moderate-to-high perioperative risk. Periprocedural TAVR complications decrease with growing expertise of implanters. Nevertheless, TAVR can still be accompanied by life-threatening adverse events such as intraprocedural cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). This study analyzed the role of a reduced left-ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in intraprocedural complications during TAVR. Perioperative and postoperative outcomes from patients undergoing TAVR in a high-volume center (600 cases per year) were analyzed retrospectively with regard to their left-ventricular ejection fraction. Patients with a reduced left-ventricular ejection fraction (EF ≤ 40%) faced a significantly higher risk of perioperative adverse events. Within this cohort, patients were significantly more often in need of mechanical ventilation (35% vs. 19%). These patients also underwent CPR (17% vs. 5.8%), defibrillation due to ventricular fibrillation (13% vs. 5.4%), and heart–lung circulatory support (6.1% vs. 2.5%) more often. However, these intraprocedural adverse events showed no significant impact on postoperative outcomes regarding in-hospital mortality, stroke, or in-hospital stay. A reduced preprocedural LVEF is a risk factor for intraprocedural adverse events. With respect to this finding, the identified patient cohort should be treated with more caution to prevent intraprocedural incidents.
