Összefoglaló szövege

In aortic stenosis (AS) evaluating left ventricular (LV) function is challenging due to the increased afterload. Myocardial work (MW) analysis adjusts myocardial deformation to instantaneous LV pressure, providing a better reflection of contractility. Prolonged LV pressure overload induces significant backward effects; the classification of this extravalvular cardiac damage effectively represents the cardiopulmonary system's involvement in AS.
We aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of MW and cardiac damage staging in TAVR patients.
We enrolled 314 TAVR patients (79±6 years, 40% female). Echocardiographic exams were performed before TAVR. LV ejection fraction (EF) and global longitudinal strain (GLS) were measured. LV pressure was estimated from systolic blood pressure and transaortic mean gradient, and global constructive work (GCW) was quantified. We determined the extent of cardiac damage associated with AS, categorizing patients into Stage 0 (no cardiac damage), Stage 1 (LV), Stage 2 (mitral valve or left atrial), Stage 3 (pulmonary artery vasculature or tricuspid valve), or Stage 4 (right ventricular). The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality, reached by 69 patients during a median follow-up of 25 months.
Preprocedural EF was 47±13%, GLS was -12.3±4.2%, GCW was 2043±769mmHg%. GCW showed a decline through AS Stages (from Stage 0-4: 2963±652 vs. 2154±621 vs. 2174±706 vs. 2044±827 vs. 1553±757mmHg%; p<0.001). Using univariate Cox analysis GCW (HR 0.968 [0.938-0.998] per 100 unit change; p=0.034) and AS Staging (HR 1.236 [1.016-1.505]; p=0.034) were associated with all-cause mortality, while EF (HR 0.982 [0.964-1.001]; p=NS) and GLS (HR 1.047 [0.989-1.108]; p=NS) were not. In multivariable Cox regression models, both GCW (HR 0.958 [0.923-0.994] per 100 unit change; p=0.022) and AS cardiac damage staging (HR 1.281 [1.040-1.577]; p=0.020) were significant independent predictors of all-cause mortality.
In TAVR patients preoperative GCW continuously decreased across AS Stages. GCW and AS Staging showed association with all-cause mortality, while EF and GLS did not. Furthermore, GCW and AS Staging had higher prognostic value than any other echocardiographic measure.
The research was supported by EKÖP-2024-247 New National Excellence Program Of The Ministry For Culture And Innovation from the source of The National Research, Development And Innovation Fund.
