Severe prosthesis-patient mismatch (PPM) after surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) is associated with higher mortality but the association of PPM with transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) outcomes is unclear PPM has been associated with less LV mass regression at 1 year in SAVR and TAVR patients TAVR may provide an option to reduce PPM and associated clinical events in patients undergoing aortic valve replacement Background Pibarot P, et al.

To compare the incidence of PPM between TAVR using a self-expanding prosthesis and SAVR in the CoreValve US High Risk Pivotal Trial To determine the impact of PPM after aortic valve replacement on clinical outcomes Objective 5 AATS 2015
Patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis at increased risk for surgery were randomized 1:1 to TAVR or SAVR in the CoreValve US High Risk Trial Postoperative PPM was defined by the effective orifice area index (EOAi) – Severe PPM was defined as EOAi ≤ 0.65 cm 2 /m 2 – Moderate PPM was 0.65 < EOAi ≤ 0.85 cm 2 /m 2 – No PPM was EOAi > 0.85 cm 2 /m 2 This subgroup analysis compares outcomes at 1 year between severe PPM and no severe PPM (EOAi > 0.65 cm 2 /m 2 ) in patients receiving TAVR or SAVR treatment Methods 6 AATS 2015

In this randomized controlled trial of TAVR vs SAVR in the treatment of aortic stenosis in a high risk population: PPM is more common with SAVR than TAVR PPM did not appear to influence LV mass regression within each treatment group but LV mass regression was notably less in the TAVR vs the SAVR group Patients with severe PPM have a higher rate of all-cause mortality and acute kidney injury than patients without severe PPM Conclusions AATS
Follow-up is only to 12 months and longer-term follow- up will provide further value There were too few patients with severe PPM in the TAVR treatment group to allow meaningful comparisons of some clinical and echo outcomes. Limitations AATS
