Early‐ and mid‐term outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve implantation in patients with logistic EuroSCORE less than 20%: A comparative analysis between different risk strata

Background: Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) is an emerging alternative to medical therapy reserved to a limited population with severe aortic stenosis. The European consensus document recommended TAVI for prohibitive‐risk patients not eligible for conventional surgery (prohibitive risk defined as expected mortality ≥ 20% calculated with the Logistic EuroScore (LES) in association with clinical judgment). To date, there is lack of clarity on data about outcomes of TAVI in lower risk patients. We sought to evaluate the outcomes of patients undergoing TAVI with LES ≥ 20% in comparison with patients with LES < 20%.
