Comparison of Outcomes of Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair (MitraClip) in Patients

The influence of age on outcomes of patients selected for transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVR) remains largely unknown in the United States. This study sought to assess the outcomes of TMVR in highly aged patients (≥80 years). We queried the National Readmission Database from January 2014 to Dec...

Description
Summary:The influence of age on outcomes of patients selected for transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVR) remains largely unknown in the United States. This study sought to assess the outcomes of TMVR in highly aged patients (≥80 years). We queried the National Readmission Database from January 2014 to December 2016 for elective TMVR hospitalizations. Propensity-score matching was used to compare in-hospital and 30-day outcomes between highly aged patients and those less than 80 years. Of 6,025 (weighted national estimate) hospitalizations for TMVR, total of 3,368 included highly aged patients (mean age 85.3) and 2,657 included patients less than 80 years (mean age 69). In the Propensity-score matched cohort (age≥ 80, n = 2,185; age
