Valvular & structural heart disease

Performance and outcomes of the SAPIEN 3 Ultra RESILIA transcatheter heart valve in the OCEAN-TAVI registry

EuroInterventionPublished Registry-based cohort study

Authors' conclusion

The S3UR has equivalent procedural complications to the S3 but with lower rates of PVL and significantly better valve performance.

Study context

Population
Patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in the OCEAN-TAVI registrymatched cohort n=618/group
Participants
618 vs 8,750
Exposure
SAPIEN 3 Ultra RESILIA vs SAPIEN 3 valve in TAVR

  • S3n = 8,750reference
Outcome
Clinical outcomes, incl. valve performance (haemodynamics, patient-prosthesis mismatch (PPM))
Methodological detailsconsecutive patients, historical comparison cohort, propensity-matched cohort
  • Consecutive patients

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

In-hospital death, vascular complications and new pacemaker implantation similar between S3UR and S3
allp>0.05

Observational data: associations, not effects.
