The study end point was the occurrence of a major complication (composite outcome) during index and up to 30\u2009days after. Multivariable logistic regression was used to assess odds of complications for TAVR and SAVR, individually over time, and for TAVR versus SAVR, over time. The cohort included 211\u2009212 patients (mean\u00b1SD age, 78.6\u00b17.3\u2009years; 45.0% women). Complication rates during index following elective isolated aortic valve replacement decreased from 49% in 2012 to 22% in 2019. These reductions were more pronounced for TAVR (41% to &gt;19%, \u0394=22%) than SAVR (51% to &gt;47%, \u0394=4%). After risk adjustment, the risk of any complication with TAVR was 47% (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"no\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt;0.0001) lower compared with SAVR in 2012, and 78% (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"no\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt;0.0001) lower in 2019. TAVR was independently associated with reduced odds of complications each year compared with 2012, with the magnitude of benefit increasing over time (2013 versus 2012: odds ratio [OR], 0.89 [95% CI, 0.81\u20130.97]; 2019 versus 2012: OR, 0.35 [95% CI, 0.33\u20130.38]).
