Outcomes of Emergency Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

Table 6

Comparison of patients undergoing emergency transcatheter aortic valve replacement according to survival status at hospital discharge.

	Survivor (n = 25)	Nonsurvivor (n = 6)	-value
Preprocedure history of atrial fibrillation, n (%)	11 (44.0)	5 (83.3)	0.08
Heart rate pre-TAVR (BPM), mean (SD)	94.6 (20.1)	84.6 (19.7)	0.1
Estimated PASP (mmHg), mean (SD)	48.3 (7.5)	40.1 (8.3)	0.03
Pulmonary artery pulsatility index, mean (SD)	2.58 (1.57)	1.32 (0.41)	0.07
Pulmonary artery pulsatility index ≤1.8, n (%)	5 (20.0)	4 (66.7)	0.01
MCS placement post-TAVR deployment, n (%)	3 (12.0)	3 (50.0)	0.03
Intraprocedural CPR, n (%)	1 (4.0)	5 (83.3)	≤0.001
Acute kidney injury post-TAVR, n (%)	1 (4.2)	4 (66.7)	≤0.001
Initiation of dialysis post-TAVR, n (%)	1 (4.2)	3 (60.0)	≤0.001
Postprocedure stroke, n (%)	2 (8.3)	1 (16.7)	0.76

TAVR: transcatheter aortic valve replacement; BPM: beats per minute; PASP: pulmonary artery systolic pressure; MCS: mechanical circulatory support; CPR: cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
