Brief Summary

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) represents an effective treatment to improve symptoms and prognosis in patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis (AS) (1-2). Giving an established uniform approach towards anticoagulation and antithrombotic therapy after TAVR in the post POPULAR-TAVI era, recent data coming from the analysis of different trials, highlight the relevance of the patient's background on the occurrence of ischemic and bleeding events. Despite this a targeted antithrombotic strategy remains unexplored and all patients undergoing TAVR without other indication to DAPT or OAC, were currently treated according with the concept of "less is more" (only SAPT or only OAC) regardless the risk level (5-6). The keys points of the project will be 1) the assessment of ischemic and bleeding risk after TAVR stratified according with antithrombotic therapy and surgical risk; 2) the evaluation of the impact of prostheses type and the complete blood count variables (hemoglobine and platelets) on the daily average ischemic and bleeding risk and 3) the evaluation of the dynamic therapeutic changes after TAVR during the follow up.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Trend of average daily ischemic risk (ADIR) and average daily bleeding risk (ADBR)

    ADIR was calculated as the total number of ischemic events (CV deaths, MI, ischemic stroke and other thrombotic events-including repeat events) divided by the number of patients-day at risk. ADBR was calculated as the total number of bleeding events (including repeat events) divided by the number of the number of patients-day at risk.

    At 30-days, 90-days and 1 year

  • Average daily risks (ADRs) in different type of valve prosthesis

    Trend and prevalence of ADIR and ADBR in different type and number of prosthesis (long frame vs short frame, balloon versus self-expandable, porcine vs bovine, Single Valve vs Valve in Valve) and calculated as the total number of events divided by the number of patients-day at risk

    At 30-days, 90-days and 1 year

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Average daily risks (ADRs) in different type of valve prosthesis

    At 30-days, 90-days and 1 year

  • Average daily risks (ADRs) in anaemic and thrombocytopenic patients

    In hospital up to 1 year

  • Rate of antithrombotic regimen changes after TAVR

    At 30-days, 90-days and 1 year

  • Timing of antithrombotic regimen changes after TAVR

    At 30-days, 90-days and 1 year

  • Type of antithrombotic regimen changes after TAVR

    At 30-days, 90-days and 1 year

Study Arms (3)

Lower Surgical Risk

Surgical risk stratification. All the following groups will be define according with STS and Euroscore II score and stratified based on antithrombotic strategy in all possible combinations (SAPT, DAPT, OAC, OAC+SAPT)

Other: Low vs Intermediate vs High surgical risk stratified according with SAPT/DAPT/OAC and OAC+SAPT

Intermediate Surgical Risk

Surgical risk stratification. All the following groups will be define according with STS and Euroscore II score and stratified based on antithrombotic strategy in all possible combinations (SAPT, DAPT, OAC, OAC+SAPT)

Other: Low vs Intermediate vs High surgical risk stratified according with SAPT/DAPT/OAC and OAC+SAPT

High Surgical Risk

Surgical risk stratification. All the following groups will be define according with STS and Euroscore II score and stratified based on antithrombotic strategy in all possible combinations (SAPT, DAPT, OAC, OAC+SAPT)

Other: Low vs Intermediate vs High surgical risk stratified according with SAPT/DAPT/OAC and OAC+SAPT

Interventions

All patients undergoing TAVR will be stratified according with surgical risk level and all combination of antithrombotic therapy at discharge Low risk (SAPT vs DAPT and OAC vs OAC+SAPT) Intermediate risk (SAPT vs DAPT and OAC vs OAC+SAPT) High risk (SAPT vs DAPT and OAC vs OAC+SAPT)
