Background TAVR effectively treats patients with severe aortic stenosis There are recent reports of TAVR leaflet abnormalities and valve thrombosis (4DCT / TEE) or Valve Hemodynamic Deterioration (VHD) (increase in aortic valve mean gradient) Planned prospective studies to investigate this using advanced imaging will take years to complete STS / ACC TVT Registry: Collaboration of STS, ACC, CMS, FDA, hospitals, industry, SCAI, AATS, NIH, and consumer advocates – Unique opportunity to track current TAVR performance in the community – All commercial valve implantations in US – Linked to CMS database for long term follow up – Prespecified post-procedure, 30-day, 1-year transthoracic echo (TTE) – TTEs are site read

Summary There is a small but present incidence of Valvular Hemodynamic Deterioration after TAVR (defined by ↑ AV gradient ≥ 10 mmHg) – 2.1% in the post-procedure to 30 day timeframe – 2.5% in the 30 day to 1-year timeframe VHD does not appear to be not associated with excess events – Cumulative incidence of a composite of death, stroke, and aortic valve re- intervention and of its components are similar between those with and without VHD Predictors of VHD include both patient and procedural factors – Patient: Male, ↑BMI severe lung disease, – Procedural: 23 mm TAVR valve, valve-in-valve, ↑Baseline AoV gradient, severe PPM
22
Limitations Retrospective analysis using site reported, surveillance echo data obtained at pre-specified time points – Uncertain relationship to clinical events, if any – May also detect asymptomatic or clinically unapparent VHD Definition of VHD (↑ 10 mm Hg mean gradient) is not validated Incidence of VHD may be underestimated due to death/reoperation before follow-up gradient measurement – The incidence of VHD when including death is 2–4x the rate of VHD Significant echo data missingness; Clinical follow-up only in CMS pts Absence of 4DCT/TEE to determine etiology of VHD or leaflet abnormalities
23
Conclusions Incidence of VHD as reported in clinical practice is low; ~2% VHD is not clearly associated with adverse CV events These findings, especially patient and procedural predictors, may help to inform TAVR care including patient selection, surveillance and preventive strategies Large, prospective studies using advanced imaging (4DCT/TEE) are necessary to fully elucidate the incidence, mechanisms and consequences of VHD
