National Registry Data and Record Linkage to Inform Postmarket Surveillance of Prosthetic Aortic Valve Models Over 15 Years

Abstract: Post-market evidence generation for medical devices is important yet limited for prosthetic aortic valve devices in the United Kingdom (UK). Objective: To identify prosthetic aortic valve models that display unexpected patterns of mortality or re-intervention using routinely collected national registry data and record linkage. Design: Observational study using the UK National Adult Cardiac Surgery Audit (NACSA) registry for procedures performed between 1998 and 2013. Valves were classified into series of relat… Show more

“…In recent years, in the prosthetic heart valve market there has been great heterogeneity of valve sub-models, with different post-market surveillance and effectiveness [1]. Therefore, replacement of native heart valves with either bioprosthetic or mechanical substitutes requires patients and clinicians to weigh the impact on long-term quality of life and patient satisfaction associated with each [2].…”

“…Our study noted significantly earlier reoperation in BHV patients with either prior or concurrent CABG. Prior studies have reported concurrent CABG and BHV aortic valve replacement in ≥35% of BHV aortic valve replacement patients . However, the impact of this association on subsequent freedom from reoperation after BHV surgery has not been described in other observational studies.…”
