Résumé

The aim of this study was to evaluate whether protamine administration for heparin reversal after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) reduces bleeding complications and affects patient outcomes. Occurrence of major bleeding complications in patients undergoing TAVR is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. This study included 873 patients undergoing TAVR, of whom 677 received protamine for heparin reversal. Standard access management included the use of pre-closure devices, manual compression, and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty or implantation of a covered stent graft, if necessary. The study complied with Good Clinical Practice guidelines and was approved by the local ethics committee. Written informed consent was obtained from all patients. The primary endpoint, a composite of 30-day all-cause mortality and life-threatening and major bleeding, occurred less frequently in the protamine administration group (3.2%) compared with the control group (8.7%) (p = 0.003). This was driven mainly by lower rates of life-threatening and major bleeding in the protamine group (0.1% vs. 2.6% [p < 0.001] and 1.0% vs. 4.1% [p = 0.008], respectively). Furthermore, protamine administration resulted in a significantly shorter hospital stay (11.1 ± 5.8 days vs. 12.7 ± 7.8 days; p = 0.05). In the overall cohort, stroke was observed in 1.9% and myocardial infarction in 0.2% of patients, with no significant difference between the groups (p > 0.05). Multivariate analysis revealed that only protamine administration (odds ratio: 0.24; 95% confidence interval: 0.10 to 0.58; p = 0.001) and acute kidney injury (odds ratio: 5.82; 95% confidence interval: 2.02 to 16.77; p = 0.001) were independently associated with the primary endpoint. Protamine administration resulted in significantly lower rates of life-threatening and major bleeding complications compared with patients without heparin reversal. Occurrence of stroke and myocardial infarction was not increased by protamine administration.

OBJECTIVES
The aim of this study was to evaluate whether protamine administration for heparin reversal after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) reduces bleeding complications and affects patient outcomes.
BACKGROUND
Occurrence of major bleeding complications in patients undergoing TAVR is associated with increased morbidity and mortality.
METHODS
This study included 873 patients undergoing TAVR, of whom 677 received protamine for heparin reversal. Standard access management included the use of pre-closure devices, manual compression, and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty or implantation of a covered stent graft, if necessary. The study complied with Good Clinical Practice guidelines and was approved by the local ethics committee. Written informed consent was obtained from all patients.
RESULTS
The primary endpoint, a composite of 30-day all-cause mortality and life-threatening and major bleeding, occurred less frequently in the protamine administration group (3.2%) compared with the control group (8.7%) (p = 0.003). This was driven mainly by lower rates of life-threatening and major bleeding in the protamine group (0.1% vs. 2.6% [p < 0.001] and 1.0% vs. 4.1% [p = 0.008], respectively). Furthermore, protamine administration resulted in a significantly shorter hospital stay (11.1 ± 5.8 days vs. 12.7 ± 7.8 days; p = 0.05). In the overall cohort, stroke was observed in 1.9% and myocardial infarction in 0.2% of patients, with no significant difference between the groups (p > 0.05). Multivariate analysis revealed that only protamine administration (odds ratio: 0.24; 95% confidence interval: 0.10 to 0.58; p = 0.001) and acute kidney injury (odds ratio: 5.82; 95% confidence interval: 2.02 to 16.77; p = 0.001) were independently associated with the primary endpoint.
CONCLUSIONS
Protamine administration resulted in significantly lower rates of life-threatening and major bleeding complications compared with patients without heparin reversal. Occurrence of stroke and myocardial infarction was not increased by protamine administration.
