Background:This study retrospectively evaluated the long-term patient outcomes and durability of the Mosaic mitral porcine bioprosthesis in the Japan Mosaic valve long-term multicenter study.Methods and Results:The medical records of 390 patients who underwent mitral valve replacement with the Mosaic bioprosthesis at 10 centers in Japan (1999–2014) were reviewed. Patient data were collected using the Research Electronic Data Capture software. Patient survival was determined using the Kaplan-Meier method. Freedom from structural valve deterioration (SVD) and valve-related reoperation and death were determined using actuarial methods. The median (interquartile range [IQR]) age of the cohort was 73 (69–77) years. The median (IQR) follow-up period was 4.83 (1.84–8.26) years. The longest follow-up period was 15.8 years. The 30-day mortality rate was 5.4%. The 12-year actuarial survival rate was 54.1±4.5%, and the freedom from valve-related death was 85.3±3.4%. The freedom from reoperation at 12 years was 74.3±5.7%. The freedom from SVD at 12 years was 81.4±6.6% for patients aged ≥65 years and 71.6±11.1% for those aged <65 years. The median (IQR) mean pressure gradient was 4.1 (3.0–6.0) and 5.6 (4.0–6.7) mmHg at 1 and 10 years, respectively. The median (IQR) effective orifice area was 1.7 (1.4–2.0) and 1.4 (1.2–1.6) cm2at 1 and 10 years, respectively.Conclusions:The Mosaic porcine bioprosthesis offered satisfactory long-term outcomes for up to 12 years.

Objective: Mitral subvalvular procedures in addition to restrictive annuloplasty are promising for ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR). However, the prevalence and efficacy of specific subvalvular repair in severe IMR have not been elucidated. This is the first nationwide survey regarding surgeons’ attitudes toward IMR in Japan.Methods: A questionnaire was sent to 543 institutions. From 2015 to 2019, numbers of elective first-time mitral valve replacement (MVR) with/without complete chordal preservation (CCP)/papillary muscle approximation (PMA) and mitral valvuloplasty (MVP) with/without papillary muscle relocation (PMR)/PMA in patients with severe IMR were collected. Concomitant procedures for coronary artery, tricuspid valve, and arrhythmia could be included but left ventricular reconstruction was excluded.Results: Completed questionnaires were received from 286 institutions (52.7%). The majority (90%) had less than 20 cases within 5 years. The number of MVP (1413, 61.5%) surpassed MVR (886, 38.5%). CCP was performed in half of MVR (50.0%), while PMA was included in only 1.9% of MVR. PMA and PMR were also performed infrequently, in only 7.7% and 10.9% of MVP, respectively.Conclusion: Japanese surgeons aggressively perform MVP for severe IMR. Subvalvular repair was also aggressively performed in addition to MVR, but not to MVP. A multicenter registry study is in progress.

Background:Hospitalization-associated disability (HAD) is associated with prolonged functional decline and increased mortality after discharge. Therefore, we examined the incidence and risk factors associated with HAD in elderly patients undergoing cardiac surgery in Japan.Methods and Results:We retrospectively examined 2,262 elderly patients who underwent elective cardiac surgery at Sakakibara Heart Institute. HAD was defined as a functional decline between time of admission and discharge measured by the Barthel Index. We analyzed clinical characteristics using machine learning algorithms to identify the risk factors associated with HAD. After excluding 203 patients, 2,059 patients remained, of whom 108 (5.2%) developed HAD after cardiac surgery. The risk factors identified were age, serum albumin concentration, estimated glomerular filtration rate, Revised Hasegawa’s Dementia Scale, N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide, vital capacity, preoperative Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) score, operation times, cardiopulmonary bypass times, ventilator times, length of postoperative intensive care unit stay, and postoperative ambulation start day. The highest incidence of HAD was found in patients with an SPPB score ≤9 and in those who started ambulation >6 days after surgery (76.9%).Conclusions:Several risk factors for HAD are components of frailty, suggesting that preoperative rehabilitation to reduce the risk of HAD is feasible. Furthermore, the association between HAD and a delayed start of ambulation reaffirms the importance of early mobilization and rehabilitation.
