Summary

The need for permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI) after sutureless aortic valve replacement (Su-AVR) significantly decreased over time. Rapid-deployment aortic valve replacement (RD-AVR) showed no change in PPI rates.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Surgery
  • Medical Devices
  • Clinical Outcomes

Background:

  • Sutureless and rapid-deployment aortic valve replacement (SuRD-AVR) are innovative techniques for aortic valve stenosis.
  • Assessing the long-term need for permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI) is crucial for evaluating these technologies.
  • Understanding trends in PPI rates can inform surgical practice and patient selection.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the trends in postoperative permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI) rates following sutureless aortic valve replacement (Su-AVR) and rapid-deployment aortic valve replacement (RD-AVR).
  • To analyze changes in patient characteristics and surgical factors associated with PPI rates over time.
  • To provide insights from a large multicenter international registry (SURD-IR) on the safety and efficacy of SuRD-AVR.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 4,166 patients undergoing SuRD-AVR between 2008 and 2019.
  • Patients were categorized into sutureless (Su) and rapid-deployment (RD) cohorts.
  • Cohorts were divided into early (2008-2016) and late (2017-2019) groups to assess temporal changes in PPI rates.

Main Results:

  • The PPI rate significantly decreased in the Su cohort over time (10.8% vs 6.3%, p < 0.001).
  • Associated with the decrease in Su-AVR PPI were: younger patients, lower risk profiles, increased use of thoracotomy, reduced bypass time, and smaller prosthesis use.
  • The RD cohort showed stable PPI rates (8.8% vs 9.3%, p = 0.8) with observed trends of younger patients and lower risk profiles.

Conclusions:

  • A significant reduction in PPI rates was observed for sutureless aortic valve replacement (Su-AVR) over time.
  • Improvements in patient selection, surgical techniques, and prosthesis sizing likely contributed to the decreased PPI rates in Su-AVR.
  • Rapid-deployment aortic valve replacement (RD-AVR) did not demonstrate a significant change in PPI rates or patient characteristics over the study period.
