Predicting the unpredictable mortality outcome of valve ‐in‐valve interventions

Key Points Surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR) risk scores overestimate valve ‐in‐valve (ViV) transcatheter AVR (TAVR) mortality, with moderate discrimination Due to low prevalence of 30‐day mortality, positive predictive value is low Specific risk score examining multiple outcomes for TAVR and ViV patients are needed
