Authors' conclusion

Severe PPM appeared to be associated with all-cause mortality. Moderate and severe PPM were more frequently observed in patients with tricuspid AS than patients with bicuspid AS.

Study context

Population
Patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in the Japanese multicentre OCEAN-TAVI registry7,393 enrolled
Participants
7,051 patients
Exposure
Bicuspid AS vs tricuspid AS after TAVR
  • Bicuspid ASn = 497
  • Tricuspid ASn = 497reference
Outcome
Incidence of PPM and long-term mortality

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

Moderate and severe PPM (matched cohort)

Moderate PPM

Severe PPM

  • Tricuspid AS vs Bicuspid AS: P = 0.0001

Observational data: associations, not effects.

Further findings

Moderate PPM
756 (10.7%)
Severe PPM
92 (1.3%)

Long-term mortality with severe PPM, overall cohort

Severe PPM appeared to be associated with long-term mortality (log-rank test)
P = 0.065
