Cumulative incidence of aortic valve PVE by valve type and implantation method

Cumulative incidence of aortic valve PVE by valve type and implantation method

Years postimplantation	Rate of PVE per 100 patient-years (95% CI)
	Surgical replacement^[1]		Transcatheter replacement^[2]
	Mechanical valve	Bioprosthetic valve	Transcatheter replacement^[2]
1 year	0.70 (0.55-0.89)	1.17 (1.01-1.36)	1.40 (1.03-1.80)
2 to 5 years	0.43 (0.37-0.51)	0.60 (0.53-0.68)	0.80 (0.60-1.06)
6 to 10 years	0.38 (0.31-0.40)	0.59 (0.50-0.70)	0.52 (0.20-1.32)

PVE: prosthetic valve endocarditis; CI: confidence interval.
