Red Blood Cell Distribution Width (RDW) Is Associated With Unfavorable Functional Outcome After Transfemoral Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation

Red Blood Cell Distribution Width (RDW) Is Associated With Unfavorable Functional Outcome After Transfemoral Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation

Elevated preprocedural RDW identifies patients at risk for impaired functional outcome after TAVI and may represent a useful low-cost parameter to guide intensity of outpatient surveillance strategies.

HF stage and LVEF could stratify patients with IHCA into different prognoses. Pre-HF and HFpEF were significantly associated with favorable neurological and survival outcomes after IHCA. Further studies are warranted...

Pre-HF and HFpEF were associated with better neurologic and survival outcomes compared with general in-hospital cardiac arrest.
