Hospitalizations are a major burden for both patients and society but are potentially preventable. We examined the one-year hospitalization burden in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and compared hospitalization rates and patterns with those undergoing isolated surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR). Using Danish nationwide registries, we identified patients who underwent first-time TAVR and isolated SAVR (2008-2019), respectively. Subsequent hospitalizations were classified as cardiovascular or non-cardiovascular according to discharge diagnosis codes. Patients undergoing TAVR (N=4,921) were older and had more comorbidities than those undergoing SAVR (N=5,220). There were 5,725 and 4,426 hospitalizations within the first year after discharge in the TAVR and SAVR group, respectively. During the one-year follow-up period post-TAVR, 46.6% were not admitted, 25.4% were admitted once, 12.6% twice, and 15.4% three times or more. The corresponding proportions in patients undergoing SAVR were 55.3%, 25.1%, 10.0%, and 9.5%, respectively. Among patients with ≥1 hospitalization following TAVR, 50.3% had a total length of all hospital stays between 1-7days, 19.0% 8-14days, 18.0% 15-30days, 9.9% 31-60days, and 2.8% ≥61days. The corresponding proportions for patients undergoing SAVR were 58.6%, 17.2%, 13.1%, 7.4%, and 3.7%, respectively. Compared with patients undergoing SAVR, those undergoing TAVR had a lower early (day0-30: HR 0.89 [95%CI,0.80-0.98]), but a higher late hospitalization rate (day31-365: 1.46 [1.32-1.60]). The one-year hospitalization burden following TAVR is substantial. Compared with patients undergoing isolated SAVR, those undergoing TAVR had a lower early, but a higher late hospitalization rate - a difference that likely reflects unmeasured differences in the patient cohorts.
