Post-Intermediate Risk TAVR at Pinnacle
• Healthier patients and thus better clinical outcomes presents a unique “win-win” situation▫ Referring providers are less frustrated and more
familiar with TAVR, because more patients are now eligible
▫ TAVR operators are more confident with their ability to deliver a predictably solid outcome
• Questions we needed to answer with adoption of commercial intermediate risk▫ Who gets an operation?▫ How do we handle any increase in volume?▫ How do our finances work with this expensive
technology gaining more market share?

Who Gets An Operation?
Intermediate Risk = Heart Team determination with guidance of
STS risk scores from ≥3%!
![Page 6: One year later, what is the impact on CV service line …...One year later, what is the impact on CV service line outcomes? Hemal Gada, MD, MBA Medical Director, Structural Heart Program](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042307/5ed31bf3d682b644414ee604/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Who Gets An Operation?• All aortic stenosis patients proceeding to a valve
replacement are presented at our weekly Friday AM meeting
• The process and considerations have become increasingly idiosyncratic for intermediate risk patients▫ Patients with a marked preference for surgery, usually
based on concerns with valve durability▫ Multivessel coronary artery disease/multivalvular
heart disease▫ A TAVR turndown – unfavorable/off-label anatomy
Bicuspid valves Poor transfemoral access Heavy LVOT calcification

The Surgeon’s Perspective in the
Intermediate Risk Era
• “Patients are happy with TAVR”
• “We are so much more streamlined in our procedure times with TAVR”
• “This is no longer some fad; it’s the future, it’s the present”

Conclusions:• Patients like TAVR• TAVR volumes grow with the expansion of commercial indications to
intermediate risk patients• Centers need to focus on TAVR operations as a stand-alone
![Page 11: One year later, what is the impact on CV service line …...One year later, what is the impact on CV service line outcomes? Hemal Gada, MD, MBA Medical Director, Structural Heart Program](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042307/5ed31bf3d682b644414ee604/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The “Volume Shift” Creates An Earthquake
• Processes need to be developed in order to
handle the upswing in TAVR volume
▫ Hiring people, upstaffing takes time
▫ Finding cath lab/OR availability takes time
• Streamlining a minimalist approach could assist
in operational, financial, and clinical efficiency

Optimal Screening Is Key
• Preprocedural Angiography▫ Still useful in most circumstances
Though most providers have a high threshhold to revascularize
▫ The presence of obstructive coronary artery disease may change treatment strategy
• Preprocedural CTA Assessment▫ An absolute must for the Minimalist Approach
▫ Precise access assessment
▫ Annulus and apparatus sizing/assessment Coronary heights
Gantry angle for deployment

Keys To Successful ICU Avoidance
• MOST IMPORTANT IS ADEQUATE STAFFING▫ Champions need to be identified in every phase
OR, PACU, ICU, telemetry floor
• A PACU type transition is necessary▫ 4-6 hour observation
• No neurologic events
• No drips
• No vascular complications
• No heart block▫ New LBBB can be OK
• Early ambulation protocol▫ 4 hours
• General diet▫ 4 hours

Pinnacle Administration’s View of TAVR
• It’s awesome…
• ..but I had (and have) to prove it to them
▫ Cannot use clinical outcomes alone
▫ Cannot define by cost/QALY
▫ Cannot use “everyone else is doing it, so why can’t we?”
▫ Cannot avoid putting on an “administrator” hat
![Page 20: One year later, what is the impact on CV service line …...One year later, what is the impact on CV service line outcomes? Hemal Gada, MD, MBA Medical Director, Structural Heart Program](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042307/5ed31bf3d682b644414ee604/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Pinnacle Documentation Best Practices
• Accurately documenting patient acuity▫ Difference between DRG 266 vs 267
Acute on chronic heart failure
Protein-calorie malnutrition
▫ “If it’s not documented, it didn’t happen and / or doesn’t exist”
• Improving patient disposition and limiting ancillary services▫ Meetings with Physical/Occupational Therapy, Social
Work, and other care providers
▫ Setting expectations for patient and family pre-procedure
If no issues peri- or post-procedure, the appropriate disposition is home without services
• Utilizing outpatient evaluations to their fullest

Take Home Points
• Commercial intermediate risk TAVR presents a significant opportunity to treat more patients with severe aortic stenosis▫ Quickly improve quality of life▫ Save downstream utilization of healthcare resources
• Centers need to view TAVR as a stand-alone▫ TAVR operations and efficiencies need to be TAVR-
specific▫ Comparisons to surgical AVR must be performed in
order to justify the expansion of TAVR
• The Heart Team remains essential in idiosyncratically adjudicating the best treatment option for an individual patient
