STS 2015 John V. Conte, MD Professor of Surgery Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine On Behalf of the CoreValve US Investigators Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement or Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Prior Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting CoreValve US Pivotal Trial
STS 2015 Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has had a major impact on how high risk patients with AS are treated TAVR has demonstrated morbidity and mortality advantages over SAVR in many patient cohorts In patients with prior CABG there is no consensus in the literature whether TAVR or SAVR offers a benefit Background Adams DJ, Popma JJ, Reardon MJ, et al.

STS 2015 Results
1-Year All-Cause Mortality Patients with Prior CABG 16
STS 2015 Outcomes with both therapies were excellent –SAVR O/E ratio 0.79 vs. STS PROM –TAVR O/E ratio 0.48 vs. STS PROM Prior to the beginning of the CoreValve US Pivotal Trial Heart Teams had no TAVR experience Clinical Results 17
STS 2015 Cox Multivariate Model created using baseline demographic, cardiac and procedural characteristics No single characteristic predictive of mortality Combinations of characteristics were tested Combination of Age >80 and STS PROM Score >7% was predictive of lower 1 year mortality (p=0.03) in TAVR pts Predictors of Mortality

STS 2015 KCCQ Overall Summary Patients with Prior CABG 26
STS 2015 This is the first review to demonstrate an advantage of TAVR over SAVR in patients with prior CABG using prospective randomized data. –Trend towards improvement in the primary endpoint of mortality at 1 year –Significant differences in the composite endpoint of mortality or major stroke –Significant differences in MACCE Conclusions 27
STS 2015 No independent predictors of 1 yr mortality Combination of Age >80yrs and STS >7% demonstrated a survival advantage for TAVR at 1 year TAVR demonstrated several procedural advantages with significant reductions in healthcare utilization Conclusions
STS 2015 Technological evolutions which reduce : PVL Vascular access problems Pacemakers implantation will encourage a shift of re-operative pts to TAVR Previous CABG patients who may benefit from SAVR include: Young patients who might need more than 1 AVR Patients who need concomitant revascularization and a LIMA available Patients with poor access who require alternative access via sternotomy Implications
