A propensity score-adjusted analysis of clinical outcomes after pulmonary valve replacement in tetralogy of Fallot

ObjectiveTo determine the association of pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) with death and sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF).MethodsSubjects with rTOF and cardiac magnetic resonance from an international registry were included. A PVR propensit...

Zusammenfassung:ObjectiveTo determine the association of pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) with death and sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF).MethodsSubjects with rTOF and cardiac magnetic resonance from an international registry were included. A PVR propensity score was created to adjust for baseline differences. PVR consensus criteria were predefined as pulmonary regurgitation >25% and ≥2 of the following criteria: right ventricular (RV) end-diastolic volume >160 mL/m2, RV end-systolic volume >80 mL/m2, RV ejection fraction (EF)
