P198 Long-term outcomes after mitraclip implantation

Abstract

Abstract Background Mitraclip implantation (MI) is a well-established option for patients (P) with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) noneligible to surgery. Its impact on long term prognosis is being addressed by several recent studies. Purpose To identify predictors of morbidity and mortality in P undergoing MI and evaluate if the COAPT, Everest and MITRAFR exclusion criteria (EC) had any impact on the outcome of our population. Methods prospective study of P who underwent MI between 2013 and 2018 in one medical center. EC: COAPT: LVEF < 20%, LV end-diastolic diameter > 70mm or pulmonary artery systolic pressure > 70mmHg; Everest: LVEF < 25% or LV end-systolic diameter (LVESD)>55mm; MITRA-FR: LVEF < 15% or >40% or primary MR. An univariate analysis was performed followed by a multivariate Cox analysis to evaluate overall mortality (M), overall mortality/ heart failure hospitalization (MH) and mortality in the first year post-MI(M1). Survival analysis using Kaplan-Meier plots. p < 0.05 were considered significant. Results 40P, 60% male, mean age 66 ± 12 years (Y) and mean follow-up time of 18 ± 15 months. 67.5% presented with MR grade IV and 75% had functional MR. Successful implantation in 97.5%, with 55% presenting mild MR post-procedure. Overall mortality was 30% (12P), mostly due to cardiovascular causes, with 9P dying in the first year (30%). There was no difference between pts with functional and primary MR: M- 33%vs20% (p = 0.6); MH– 53.3%vs30% (p = 0.5). P who met the COAPT exclusion criteria (N-22) presented an inferior 1Ysurvival (64.5%vs86.7%, p = 0.046). The overall outcome was comparable between P who matched and didn"t match Everest and MITRA-FR exclusion criteria. Basal BNP value (p = 0.037), mean preprocedural MAGGIC score (p = 0.040) and EROA (p = 0.039) were associated to M1. Multivariate Cox analysis revealed that basal BNP was an independent predictor of M (p = 0.017), whereas a higher distance in the pre-procedural 6 minute walk test (p = 0.008) and the "reduction in the MR severity and PASP" (p = 0.008) presented a protective effect. LVESD > 55mm was an independent predictor of MH (p = 0.017), but MR of grade 2 or less after procedure was protective (p = 0.006). Conclusion There was no M difference between P with functional and primary MR. P with COAPT exclusion criteria had worse 1Ysurvival. A higher distance in 6MWT and a reduction in MR severity and PASP were protective. An LVESD > 55 mm had a worse prognosis. Careful P selection may be crucial to improve MI"s results Abstract P198 Figure. Kaplan-Meier Plots
