Surgical and transcatheter aortic valve interventions for aortic stenosis in England: sociodemographic variations in treatment trends and outcome over 20 years
There are differences in intervention rates for AS in England, with lower rates in female patients and to a lesser extent, those from the most deprived areas and ethnic minority groups. These variations have widened over time. Post-intervention cardiovascular mortality is lower in women and with decreasing deprivation. Public health measures and research are needed to identify the true prevalence of AS in different populations, and the reasons for potential inequalities.
