Almost 50% of Patients Under 60 Years Choose TAVR Over Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement with Worse Outcomes

DAIC

From a pool of 37,011 patients, the study identified 2,360 patients under the age of 60 years who underwent these procedures, with 22% receiving TAVR and 78% SAVR. By 2021 almost half of patients younger than 60 years were receiving TAVR rather than SAVR. years after TAVR and 4.9 years after SAVR to assess their outcomes.

New Study Finds Mechanical Valves Offer Superior Long-Term Survival for Aortic Valve Replacement Patients Aged 60 and Younger

Society of Thoracic Surgeons - Congenital

The study, leveraging data from the STS Adult Cardiac Surgery Database (ACSD), offers the most comprehensive analysis to date of prosthetic valve outcomes, encompassing over 100,000 patients. The study addressed a critical question in cardiac surgery: how age and valve type influence outcomes for patients undergoing surgical AVR.
