TL;DR: The findings show that TAVR as an alternative to surgery for patients with high surgical risk results in similar clinical outcomes.

TL;DR: TAVR with SAPIEN 3 in intermediate-risk patients with severe aortic stenosis is associated with low mortality, strokes, and regurgitation at 1 year after implantation, and a significant superiority for the composite outcome with TAVR compared with surgery is indicated.

TL;DR: TAVR should be strongly considered for patients who are not surgical candidates for aortic valve replacement to improve their survival and functional status, and Appropriate selection of patients will help to maximise the benefit of TAVR and reduce mortality from severe comorbidities.

TL;DR: New PPM was associated with a longer duration of hospitalization and higher rates of repeatospitalization and mortality or repeat hospitalization at 1 year, and the prosthesis to LV outflow tract diameter ratio and the LV end-diastolic diameter were identified as novel predictors of PPM after TAVR.
Abstract: Objectives The purpose of this study was to identify predictors and clinical implications of permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Background Cardiac conduction disturbances requiring PPM are a frequent complication of TAVR. However, limited data is available regarding this complication after TAVR with a balloon-expandable valve. Methods The study included patients without prior pacemaker who underwent TAVR in the PARTNER (Placement of AoRtic TraNscathetER Valves) trial and registry and investigated predictors and clinical effect of new PPM. Results Of 2,559 TAVR patients, 586 were excluded due to pre-existing PPM. A new PPM was required in 173 of the remaining 1,973 patients (8.8%). By multivariable analysis, predictors of PPM included right bundle branch block (odds ratio [OR]: 7.03, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 4.92 to 10.06, p Conclusions PPM was required in 8.8% of patients without prior PPM who underwent TAVR with a balloon-expandable valve in the PARTNER trial and registry. In addition to pre-existing right bundle branch block, the prosthesis to LV outflow tract diameter ratio and the LV end-diastolic diameter were identified as novel predictors of PPM after TAVR. New PPM was associated with a longer duration of hospitalization and higher rates of repeat hospitalization and mortality or repeat hospitalization at 1 year.
