Outcomes of surgical aortic valve replacement in moderate risk patients: Implications for determination of equipoise in the transcatheter era

Abstract: SAVR in moderate-risk patients is currently performed with one half of the early predicted risk (2.8%) and a low likelihood of complications, including a 1.8% incidence of stroke. Patients counseled for randomization to transcatheter aortic valve insertion should be informed of the excellent early to mid-term outcomes of SAVR, particularly those without pulmonary impairment, peripheral vascular disease, or atrial fibrillation.

“…Euroscore (mean <20%) was used only if the STS score was not available. Inclusion was restricted to comparison studies only and studies with isolated data from only one of the two interventions were not included (13,14,18,19). We included all studies irrespective of the type of TAVR valve and the route of vascular access.…”

“…Prior studies have also focused on evaluating moderate-risk patients. Iturra and colleagues [10] evaluated an institutional cohort of 502 patients undergoing AVR from 2002 to 2011. With a similar preoperative PROM as our study cohort, they identified an observed mortality rate of 2.8%.…”
