Association between repair vs replacement and all-cause mortality
| N | No. of events (%) | Model 1 | Model 2 | Model 3 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| HR (95% CI) | HR (95% CI) | HR (95% CI) | |||
| MVr | 85 | 20 (23.5) | Reference | Reference | Reference |
| MVR | 98 | 27 (28.1) | 1.23 (0.69–2.19) | 1.09 (0.59–2.00) | 0.83 (0.45–1.54) |
| MVR, but theoretically feasible for repair | 33 | 12 (36.4) | 1.56 (0.76–3.20) | 1.69 (0.74–3.86) | 1.02 (0.47–2.23) |
Model 1: univariate analysis; Model 2: urgency and active endocarditis adjusted only; Model 3: logistic EuroSCORE adjusted only
