Insights
Existing risk models for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) show limited accuracy for predicting post-procedural ischaemic and bleeding events. Recalibration improved model performance for TAVR risk stratification.
Area of Science:
- Cardiovascular Medicine
- Interventional Cardiology
- Health Outcomes Research
Background:
- Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is associated with significant post-procedural ischaemic and bleeding risks.
- Current risk stratification models are insufficient for predicting these dual outcomes in TAVR patients.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the accuracy of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)-derived risk models for TAVR.
- To develop and assess a recalibrated model incorporating TAVR-specific variables for improved risk prediction.
Main Methods:
- Analysis of a national registry including 26,869 patients undergoing TAVR.
- Assessment of established PCI risk scores (PARIS, CREDO-Kyoto) for ischaemic and bleeding events at 1 year.
- Recalibration of models using TAVR-applicable variables and the Fine and Gray method.
Main Results:
- 1-year cumulative incidences for ischaemic and bleeding events were 2.7% and 3.1%, respectively.
- High-risk scores on PCI-derived models correlated with increased ischaemic and bleeding events (p<0.001).
- Recalibrated models showed modest improvement in predicting ischaemic (AUC 0.58) and bleeding (AUC 0.61) events.
Conclusions:
- PCI-derived risk models demonstrate inadequate accuracy for TAVR patient risk stratification at 1 year.
- Recalibration of models with TAVR-specific factors offers a modest improvement in predicting dual ischaemic and bleeding risks.
Objective:
Postprocedural ischaemic and bleeding risks after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) remain a major concern. Nevertheless, no reliable risk models incorporating both possibilities are currently available. We aimed to assess the accuracy of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)-derived models and the performance of a recalibrated model that included variables more applicable to TAVR.
Methods:
This study included 26 869 patients who had been enrolled in a national registry. Ischaemic events were defined as myocardial infarction, stroke, transient ischaemic attack or peripheral embolism at 1 year. Bleeding events were defined as any bleeding based on the Valve Academic Research Consortium-2 consensus document at 1 year. Patterns of Non-adherence to Anti-Platelet Regimen in Stented Patients (PARIS) and Coronary Revascularisation Demonstrating Outcome Study in Kyoto (CREDO-Kyoto) integer scoring systems were tested. The models were recalibrated by applying new variables using the Fine and Gray method.
Results:
The 1-year cumulative incidences for ischaemic and bleeding events were 2.7% and 3.1%. Patients with high PARIS and CREDO-Kyoto risk scores had higher incidences of both ischaemic (3.3% vs 2.4% vs 2.4%, p<0.001 and 2.8% vs 2.0% vs 0.8%, p<0.001) and bleeding events (3.3% vs 2.5% vs 0.8%, p<0.001 and 3.7% vs 3.0% vs 2.4%, p<0.001) when compared with intermediate and low-risk patients. The receiver operating characteristic area under the curves for these models were 0.53, 0.58, 0.56 and 0.55, respectively. After the models were recalibrated to incorporate variables more applicable to TAVR, the performance of ischaemic and bleeding models modestly improved (0.58 and 0.61, respectively).
Conclusions:
The PCI-derived models demonstrated modest accuracy but was inadequate for risk stratification of TAVR patients at 1-year follow-up.
