Sohn SH, et al. - Researchers undertook this meta-analysis comparing the early and follow-up outcomes of aortic valve replacement(AVR) using rapid deployment or sutureless (RD) valves(RDAVR group) with AVR using conventional bioprostheses(CAVR group). Compared to CAVR, RDAVR was observed to be associated with significantly shorter ACC and CPB times. However, this difference did not translate into improved postoperative outcomes, early mortality and all-cause mortality during follow-up. They suggested practicing caution when implanting RD valves as they were associated with a higher incidence of PPM insertion, regardless of the RD valve type.
