Rehospitalization for decompensated heart failure occurs frequently after MitraClip implantation, negatively impacting quality of life. We aimed here to determine predictors of 1-year rehospitalization for decompensated heart failure.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods and results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 355 consecutive patients who underwent MitraClip implantation at our centre were evaluated for their baseline and procedural characteristics, peri-procedural outcome and clinical endpoints. Rate of rehospitalization for decompensated heart failure was reduced from 52.7% (n\u2009=\u2009187) in the year before MitraClip procedure to 18.0% (n\u2009=\u200964) (P\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.0001) in the first year after MitraClip implantation. The mean duration until rehospitalization was 117 days after MitraClip implantation. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis identified baseline left ventricular ejection fraction (P\u2009=\u20090.020), baseline troponin T (P\u2009=\u20090.003) and pre-procedural NYHA class (P\u2009=\u20090.020) as independent predictors for 1-year rehospitalization after MitraClip implantation. Rehospitalization correlated significantly with all-cause mortality (odds ratio 2.3, 95% confidence interval 1.3\u20134.1; P\u2009=\u20090.004) and cardiovascular mortality (odds ratio 3.3, 95% confidence interval 1.7\u20136.1; P\u2009=\u20090.0003).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>After MitraClip implantation, annual rate of rehospitalization for decompensated heart failure was reduced by 65.8%. Baseline left ventricular ejection fraction, baseline troponin T and pre-procedural NYHA functional class are independent predictors for rehospitalization within the first year after MitraClip implantation. Patients readmitted for decompensated heart failure after MitraClip implantation had a 2.3-fold increased risk of all-cause mortality and a 3.3-fold increased risk of cardiovascular mortality compared to patients not requiring rehospitalization.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/ejhf.1289","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,9,4]],"date-time":"2018-09-04T02:48:12Z","timestamp":1536029292000},"page":"182-192","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":49,"title":["Predictors of Rehospitalization After Percutaneous Edge-to-Edge Mitral Valve Repair by Mitraclip Implantation"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"Mirjam","family":"Ke\u00dfler","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine II, University of Ulm , Ulm ,","place":["Germany"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Julia","family":"Seeger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine II, University of Ulm , Ulm ,","place":["Germany"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rainer","family":"Muche","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Epidemiology and Medical Biometry, University of Ulm , Ulm ,","place":["Germany"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jochen","family":"W\u00f6hrle","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine II, University of Ulm , Ulm ,","place":["Germany"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wolfgang","family":"Rottbauer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine II, University of Ulm , Ulm ,","place":["Germany"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sinisa","family":"Markovic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine II, University of Ulm , Ulm ,","place":["Germany"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,9,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"2026011721293497200_ejhf1289-bib-0001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1395","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa1009355","article-title":"Percutaneous repair or surgery for mitral regurgitation","volume":"364","author":"Feldman","year":"2011","journal-title":"N Engl J Med"},{"key":"2026011721293497200_ejhf1289-bib-0002","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"875","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacc.2014.06.1166","article-title":"Transcatheter Valve Treatment Sentinel Registry Investigators of the EURObservational Research Programme of the European Society of Cardiology.
