OBJECTIVES: The ACURATE TA (TM) system is a self-expanding transcatheter heart valve system designed for transapical access which has been proven to be safe and effective in the controlled setting of clinical trials. The SAVI-1 and SAVI-2 registries aimed to assess whether these promising outcomes can be translated into all-comers clinical routine. METHODS: From November 2011 to 2012 (SAVI-1), and November 2013 to 2014 (SAVI-2), a total of 500 patients were enrolled in the prospective, all-comers, multicentre, multinational SAVI registries. Patients were treated according to the standard of care at their respective hospitals. We report and compare 30-day and 1-year clinical outcomes between SAVI-1 and -2. RESULTS: Patients were 80.8 +/- 6.1 years old, the mean logistic EuroSCORE-I was 23.4 +/- 14.3%. Valves were deployed under rapid pacing in 71.3% of the procedures in SAVI-1, and in 3.6% in SAVI-2. There was no relevant difference in clinical and echocardiographic outcomes between SAVI-1 and SAVI-2. Overall mortality at 30 days and 1 year was 6.8% and 19.9%, the stroke rate was 2.2% and 3.7%, respectively; 10.2% of patients had received a permanent pacemaker, and no transcatheter valve-related complications after discharge were observed. Paravalvular leakage >= 2+ was reported in 1.9% of the patients at the early follow-up, and in 2.6% at the 1-year follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: The SAVI-registries have confirmed that transapical implantation using the ACURATE TA (TM) device is safe and effective in an all-comers setting with low complication rates and stable performance outcomes at short-term and 1 year; outcomes were similar between SAVI-1 and -2.
