Transcatheter versus surgical aortic valve replacement in the digital era: Meta-analysis based on the reconstruction of time-to-event individual patient data

Giuseppe Tarantini et al. Catheter Cardiovasc Interv. 2020 Jul.

Abstract

Clinical benefits of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) over surgery emerge soon after intervention and show durable, consistent trends within 1 year. TAVR by transfemoral access is associated with improved outcomes compared with TAVR by transthoracic access. Reconstructing time-to-event individual patient data is advantageous and allows higher flexibility in terms of meta-analysis design and modeling of data.
