Periprocedural Myocardial Injury Predicts Short- and Long-Term Mortality in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement.

The aim was to assess whether periprocedural myocardial injury (PPMI) predicts outcomes in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). PPMI is a strong predictor of outcomes following coronary intervention, but its impact in the context of TAVR remains unclear. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to ascertain the association between PPMI and short- or long-term outcomes.
