Cerebral Lesion and Neurocognitive Status Changes After TAVR (CLEVER-TAVR)

December 22, 2020 updated by: Shenghua Zhou, Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University

Cerebral Lesion and Neurocognitive Status Changes After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement：A Prospective Multicenter Observational Cohort Study.

The CLEVER-TAVR cohort (Cerebral Lesion and Neurocognitive Status Changes after Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement) is a multicenter observational cohort study. The investigators will screen consecutive patients ≥65 years of age before TAVR and enroll those that complete the procedure successfully. The investigators will assess the neurocognitive function using multiple tests with Reliable Change Index before TAVR and 7, 30, 90, 180 and 360 days after TAVR. The primary endpoint will be major adverse cardiovascular and cerebral events(MACCE, defined according to the Valve Academic Research Consortium-2 data dictionary) at 1 year.

Detailed Description

Study Design The CLEVER-TAVR cohort (Cerebral Lesion and Neurocognitive Status Changes after Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement) is a multicenter prospective observational study. Patients with aortic stenosis who successfully undergo TAVR procedure from January 2021 to December 2021 will be enrolled in this study according to the inclusion criteria. Preoperative cognitive function, DW-MRI evaluation and baseline data will be recorded. All patients should be followed up for 1 year, including telephone follow-up once a month to record the main end-point events, and clinic follow-up at 30, 90, 180, 360 days after TAVR. Laboratory examination, electrocardiogram, color Doppler ultrasound and other examinations will be collected and recorded. The changes of cognitive function and brain imaging (DW-MRI) will be evaluated before discharge(7 days), 30, 90, 180, 360 days after procedure. The primary endpoint will be major adverse cardiovascular and cerebral events(MACCE), including all-cause death, stroke, acute kidney injury, myocardial infarction, bleeding complications, vascular complications, permanent pacemaker implantation, conduction block and arrhythmia, valve related complications. The postoperative valve function, life quality and other complications related to TAVR will also be recorded.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
major adverse cardiovascular and cerebral events
Time Frame: 1 year.
Defined as VARC-2, major adverse cardiovascular and cerebral events(MACCE), including all-cause death, stroke, acute kidney injury, myocardial infarction, bleeding complications, vascular complications, permanent pacemaker implantation, conduction block and arrhythmia, valve related complications.
1 year.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Cognitive Decline.
Time Frame: 1 year.
Cognitive Decline is defined as Mini-mental State Examination(MMSE) score decreased by more than 3 points. The MMSE is a 30-point test, the lower the score, the worse the severity (24-30: No cognitive impairment, 18-23: mild Cognitive impairment, 0-17: severe cognitive impairment).
1 year.
