Event Description

Medtronic received information that a retrospective study of 207 patients (predominantly female; mean age of 74 years) was performed to evaluate the mid to long-term durability and hemodynamics of a small-size bioprosthetic stented porcine aortic valve as compared to larger sizes.A 19-mm, 21-mm, 23-mm, 25-mm, and 27-mm prosthesis was implanted in 103, 53, 35, 13, and 3 patients, respectively.The study assessed patients between the years 2000 to 2012, with a mean follow-up of 3.5 years.The 30-day mortality rate was 1.9%, which included deaths due to left ventricle rupture (n=2), low output syndrome (n=2), and mediastinitis (n=1).There were 22 late deaths, 5 of which were from cardiac conditions: heart failure (n=2), sudden death (n=2), endocarditis (n=1), and cerebral bleeding (n=1).Other adverse patient effects included chronic heart failure (n=5), implant of a permanent pacemaker (n=5) and cerebral infarction/bleeding (n=4).Valve-related comorbidities occurred in 3 patients: structural valve deterioration (svd) noted as leaflet degradation requiring reoperation at 7.2 years (n=1), and endocarditis (n=2).No additional adverse patient effects were reported.
