Abstract

Background: Studies suggest similar immediate post transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) invasive and echocardiographic gradients across TAVR platforms, despite lower discharge echocardiographic gradients in self-expanding valves (SEV) vs balloon-expandable valves (BEV) Sapien 3 Ultra (S3U). Lower discharge echocardiographic gradients have been reported with BEV Sapien 3 Resilia (S3R) vs S3U. We compared immediate post-TAVR invasive and echocardiographic gradients and discharge echocardiographic gradients in BEV S3U, BEV S3R, and SEV. Methods: Consecutive patients who underwent TAVR were included. Immediate post-TAVR invasive gradients were compared with concomitant and discharge echocardiographic gradients across BEV S3U, BEV S3R, and SEV. Results: A total of 166 patients were analyzed (77 S3U, 61 S3R, 28 SEV). Post-TAVR, invasive gradients were lower than echocardiographic gradients in all valves (P value < 0.001 for all). Across all valves, immediate post-TAVR invasive (S3U; 0.21 ± 0.9 mm Hg, S3R; 0.1 ± 0.5 mm Hg, SEV; 0.21 ± 0.70 mm Hg, P = 0.81) and echocardiographic gradients (S3U; 5.0 ± 2.4 mm Hg, S3R; 5.0 ± 2.7 mm Hg, SEV; 6.0 ± 2.3 mm Hg, P = 0.40) were similar. Discharge echocardiographic gradients were highest in S3U valves (12 ± 4.8 mm Hg) vs S3R (10 ± 4.5 mm Hg) and SEV (9 ± 4.4 mm Hg) with P value = 0.002 (Figure 1A and B). [Formula presented] Conclusion: Lower discharge echocardiographic gradients in BEV S3R and SEV vs BEV S3U were noted despite similar immediate post-TAVR invasive and echocardiographic gradients. Valve design and flow states impact discharge echocardiographic gradients but not post-TAVR invasive and echocardiographic gradients. Categories: STRUCTURAL: Valvular Disease: Aortic.
