Impact of Atrial Fibrillation Type on Outcomes of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement for Aortic Stenosis: A Single-Center Analysis

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a recognized risk factor for mortality after transcatheter aortic valve replacement for severe aortic stenosis, but the impact of different types of AF on clinical outcomes remains unclear. Methods: This retrospective study included 982 patients divided into 3...

description Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a recognized risk factor for mortality after transcatheter aortic valve replacement for severe aortic stenosis, but the impact of different types of AF on clinical outcomes remains unclear. Methods: This retrospective study included 982 patients divided into 3 groups: no AF, paroxysmal AF, and nonparoxysmal AF (persistent or permanent). Clinical outcomes were analyzed using inverse probability weighting and multivariate models. Results: There were 610, 211, and 161 patients in the no-AF, paroxysmal AF, and nonparoxysmal AF groups, respectively. For the entire cohort, the mean (SD) age was 82 (7.7) years, and the periprocedural, 1-year, and 5-year mortality rates were 2.0%, 12%, and 50%, respectively. After inverse probability weighting, the periprocedural mortality rate was higher in the nonparoxysmal AF group than in the no-AF group (odds ratio, 4.71 [95% CI, 1.24-17.9]). During 5 years of follow-up (median [IQR], 22 [0-69] months), all-cause mortality was higher in the nonparoxysmal AF group than in the no-AF group (hazard ratio [HR], 1.56 [95% CI, 1.14-2.14]; P = .006). The paroxysmal AF group was not associated with worse clinical outcomes than the no-AF group (HR, 1.02 [95% CI, 0.81-1.49]) for all-cause mortality. Stroke rates were comparable among the 3 groups. Multivariate analysis also showed increased all-cause mortality in the nonparoxysmal AF group compared with the no-AF group (adjusted HR, 1.43 [95% CI, 1.06-1.93]; P = .018), while all-cause mortality was comparable between the paroxysmal AF and no-AF groups (adjusted HR, 1.00 [95% CI, 0.75-1.33]). Conclusion: In patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement for severe aortic stenosis, having nonparoxysmal AF was associated with a higher risk of periprocedural and all-cause mortality compared with having no AF. Paroxysmal AF showed no such association.
