Abstract

Mitral valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) reduces secondary mitral regurgitation (MR) in heart failure and impacts survival in selected patients as demonstrated in the COAPT (Cardiovascular Outcomes Assessment of the MitraClip Percutaneous Therapy for Heart Failure Patients with Functional Mitral Regurgitation) trial. However, long-term outcome data after M-TEER under real-world conditions are lacking. This study sought to assess long-term efficacy and survival after M-TEER in a large real-world registry. We analyzed patients with significant secondary MR undergoing M-TEER from the EuroSMR (European Registry of Transcatheter Repair for Secondary Mitral Regurgitation) registry. Long-term MR reduction, functional outcomes, survival rate, and predictors for all-cause mortality were assessed. In this study, 1,628 patients undergoing M-TEER (mean age 73.8 years, mean EuroSCORE II [European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation II] 6.9%, 86.6% NYHA functional class ≥III) with available long-term data were included. Five-year survival was 35.0%. Long-term MR reduction (MR grade ≤2+: baseline 4.1%, discharge 92.2%, 5-year follow-up 85.5%; P < 0.001) and functional improvement (NYHA ≤II: baseline 13.4%, 5-year follow-up 60.1%; P < 0.001) was observed. The degree of residual MR was associated with 5-year survival (residual MR grade ≤1+: 38.6%; 2+: 30.5%; ≥3+: 22.6%; P < 0.001). Independent predictors for 5-year all-cause mortality post–M-TEER included age, renal function, residual MR, NYHA functional class, left ventricular ejection-fraction, and COAPT trial eligibility (P < 0.01 for all). This extensive multicenter registry underscores the long-term efficacy of M-TEER in real-world clinical practice and identifies predictors for long-term survival. These findings contribute valuable insights for optimizing patient selection in routine clinical interventions. [Display omitted] [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background: Mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) is a guideline-recommended treatment option for patients with severe symptomatic mitral regurgitation (MR). Outcomes with the PASCAL system in a post-market setting have not been established. Objectives: The authors report 30-day and 1-year outcomes from the MiCLASP (Transcatheter Repair of Mitral Regurgitation with Edwards PASCAL Transcatheter Valve Repair System) European post-market clinical follow-up study. Methods: Patients with symptomatic, clinically significant MR were prospectively enrolled. The primary safety endpoint was clinical events committee–adjudicated 30-day composite major adverse event rate and the primary effectiveness endpoint was echocardiographic core laboratory–assessed MR severity at discharge compared with baseline. Clinical, echocardiographic, functional, and quality-of-life outcomes were assessed at 1 year. Results: A total of 544 patients were enrolled (59% functional MR, 30% degenerative MR). The 30-day composite major adverse event rate was 6.8%. MR reduction was significant from baseline to discharge and sustained at 1 year with 98% of patients achieving MR ≤2+ and 82.6% MR ≤1+ (all P < 0.001 vs baseline). One-year Kaplan-Meier estimate for survival was 87.3%, and freedom from heart failure hospitalization was 84.3%. Significant functional and quality-of-life improvements were observed at 1 year, including 71.6% in NYHA functional class I/II, 14.4-point increase in Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire score, and 24.2-m improvement in 6-minute walk distance (all P < 0.001 vs baseline). Conclusions: One-year outcomes of this large cohort from the MiCLASP study demonstrate continued safety and effectiveness of M-TEER with the PASCAL system in a post-market setting. Results demonstrate high survival and freedom from heart failure hospitalization, significant and sustained MR reduction, and improvements in symptoms, functional capacity, and quality of life.

Abstract

Aims: Achieving optimized guideline‐directed medical therapy (GDMT) is recommended prior to transcatheter mitral valve edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) for secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR). We aimed to propose and validate an easy‐to‐use score for assessing the quality of GDMT in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) undergoing M‐TEER. Methods and results: Among the 1641 EuroSMR patients enrolled in the EuroSMR Registry who underwent M‐TEER, a total of 1072 patients [median age 74, interquartile range (IQR) 67–79 years, 29% female] had complete data on GDMT and a left ventricular ejection fraction ≤ 40% and were included in the current study. We proposed a GDMT score that considers the dosage levels of three medication classes (angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers/angiotensin receptor‐neprilysin inhibitors, beta‐blockers, and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists), with a maximum score of 12 points indicating optimal GDMT. The primary outcome was all‐cause mortality. The median GDMT score was 4 points (IQR 3–6). All three domains of the scoring system were associated with all‐cause mortality (P < 0.05 for all). The overall GDMT score was associated with all‐cause mortality (hazard ratio 0.90, 95% confidence interval 0.86–0.95 for each 1‐point increase in the GDMT score). This association remained significant after adjusting for renal function and co‐morbidities. Conclusions: This study demonstrates the utility of a simple GDMT scoring system for assessing the adequacy of GDMT in HFrEF patients with relevant SMR undergoing M‐TEER. The GDMT score has potential applications in guiding the design of future clinical trials and aiding clinical decision‐making processes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Both highly specialized heart centres and less specialized hospitals care for patients with implantable ICDs/CRT-Ds with remote monitoring. OBJECTIVE: To investigate potential differences in patient treatment according to centre's ICD implantation volume. METHODS: Based on their 2012 ICD/CRT-D implantation volume, centres enrolled in the NORDIC ICD trial in Germany were assigned to one of three groups: high- (HV, n = 345), medium- (MV, n = 340) or low-volume (LV, n = 189). RESULTS: The HV-centres had a significant higher CRT-D proportion (41.7%; LV: 36.5%; MV: 23.2%; P 푔푙표푏푎푙 < 0.001), significant shorter median procedure duration (49 min; MV: 58 min; LV: 60 min; P 푔푙표푏푎푙 < 0.001) but significant longer median hospital stay (4 days; MV and LV: 3 days; P 푔푙표푏푎푙 < 0.001) compared to MV- and LV-centres. The X-ray exposure was shorter in MV/HV-centres (MV: 3.4 min; HV: 3.6 min; LV: 5.5 min; P 푔푙표푏푎푙 < 0.001). Only 3.5% (LV: 2.6%; HV: 3.5%; MV: 4.1%) patients received at least one delivered inappropriate shock and 2.5% (HV: 2.0%; LV: 2.6%; MV: 2.9%) patients had withheld inappropriate ICD shocks without subsequent inappropriate shock delivery within 24.5 months of median follow-up. CONCLUSION: Implantation volume-dependent differences were observed in the device selection, procedure duration and x-ray exposure duration. Remote monitoring in combination with adequate response pattern prevented imminent inappropriate shocks in all three groups. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background Gender-related aspects in cardiac arrhythmias have gained increasing attention, still the understanding of peripartum electrical disorders remains vague. Case summary A 28-year-old woman developed palpitations and presyncopes during the post-partum period after her second pregnancy. Palpitations remained unclear until a self-recorded single-lead smartwatch ECG revealed a complete episode of a fast broad complex tachycardia (260 b.p.m.) that led to hospital admission. Echocardiography, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, and exercise testing, showed no relevant abnormalities. Recording the tachycardia in a 12-lead-ECG could eventually be achieved revealing an inferior axis and positive concordance in the precordial leads. Episodes of ventricular tachycardia (VT) could be provoked by breast feeding and mental stress, but not induced in two electrophysiological studies. Genetic testing was normal. The patient continued to experience repeated, self-terminating VT episodes, lasting between 10 and 40 s, leading to presyncopes and a syncope with a fall. The beginning of symptoms subsequent to child birth and frequent premature ventricular contractions in her first pregnancy made hormone-induced arrhythmia a tentative diagnosis. Heart rate-corrected QT (QTc) intervals showed significant variability corresponding to the frequency of episodes in a retrospective evaluation. The cessation of breastfeeding led to a termination of arrhythmias. The patient was temporarily equipped with a wearable cardioverter defibrillator vest, an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) was not implanted. Discussion The case report highlights the potential of self-recorded, patient-activated ECG monitoring in diagnosing recurrent palpitations, and the dilemma of timing for implanting ICDs in young patients with ventricular arrhythmias (VTs). Additionally, it underlines the role of post-partum hormones in the susceptibility to ventricular arrhythmias, calling for further research of gender-specific, and pregnancy-associated arrhythmias.
