Influence of Failure to Rescue on Mortality After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement
National TAVR mortality rates vary significantly across centers, despite comparable rates of postoperative complications. Patients at medium- and high-mortality centers face a disproportionately higher risk of death due to FTR. These findings highlight the need for a closer evaluation of post-TAVR care processes to address this disparity.
