Abstrakt: Background: Bioprosthetic surgical mitral valve replacement (SMVR) remains an important treatment option in the era of transcatheter valve interventions. We present 10-year clinical outcomes of Medicare beneficiaries undergoing SMVR with a contemporary low-profile mitral porcine valve.
Methods: This is a single-arm observational study using Medicare fee-for-service claims data. De-identified patients undergoing SMVR with the Epic™ Mitral valve (Abbott, Minnesota, USA) in the United States between 1/1/2008-12/31/2019 were selected by ICD-9/10 procedure codes and then linked to a manufacturer device tracking database. All-cause mortality, heart failure (HF) re-hospitalization, and mitral valve reintervention (surgical or transcatheter valve-in-valve) were evaluated at 10-years using the Kaplan Meier method.
Results: Among 75,739 Medicare beneficiaries undergoing SMVR during the study period, 14,015 were implanted with the Epic™ Mitral valve, of which 76.5% (10,720) had underlying HF. Mean age was 74±8 years. Survival at 10-years in patients without preoperative HF was 40.4% (95% CI 37.4%-43.4%) compared to 25.4% (95% CI 23.8%-27.0%) for patients with HF (p < 0.001). The 10-year freedom from HF rehospitalization was 51.3% (95% CI 49.4%-53.1%). Freedom from mitral valve reintervention was 91.4% (95% CI 89.7%-92.7%) at 10 years.
Conclusions: This real-world nationwide study of Medicare beneficiaries receiving the Epic™ Mitral valve demonstrates >90% freedom from all-cause valve reintervention and >50% freedom from HF rehospitalization at 10-years post-implant. Long-term survival and HF rehospitalization in this population with mitral valve disease undergoing SMVR was found to be impacted by underlying HF.
