There are differences in reporting bleeding complications after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), which is a consequence of the lack of consensus for their definition. Furthermore, the amount of data on the impact of peri-procedural bleeding on the mid-term prognosis is still limited. The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence, predictors, and impact of life-threatening and major bleedings as defined by the Valve Academic Research Consortium 2 (VARC-2) in patients after TAVI over the mid-term prognosis.Consecutive patients who underwent TAVI from March 2010 to December 2013 were included. All data were classified according to the VARC-2 criteria. We assessed the incidence and the predictors of serious bleeding events (SBE), defined as life-threatening/disabling (LT/D) or major bleeding, and analyzed their impact on 30-day and 1-year clinical outcome.A total of 129 patients were included (79.1 ± 8.3 years; mean EuroSCORE = 17.8 ± 12.7). The SBE occurred in 25 patients (19.4%), of which 9 (7.0%) had LT/D and 16 (12.4%) had major bleeding. Trans-subclavian (TS) access (OR 4.38, 95% CI 2.13-14.29, P = 0.01) and diabetes (OR 2.93, 95% CI 1.08-7.93, P = 0.03) were identified as independent predictors of SBE. Patients with SBE had higher 30-day mortality (20.0% versus 4.0% P = 0.02) and 1-year mortality (40.0% versus 11.1%, P &lt; 0.002). SBE independently predicted 1-year, all-cause mortality (HR 5.88, 95% CI 1.7319,94, P = 0.005).SBE are frequent after TAVI and are associated with decreased short and mid-term survival. Diabetes and TS access are independent risk factors for SBE.
