Diabetes is associated with a higher incidence of short-term mortality risk and readmission in patients who undergo surgical but not transcatheter aortic valve replacement
BACKGROUND: Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is increasingly used for aortic valve replacement instead of surgical aortic valve replacement (sAVR). We aimed to examine the impact of diabetes on 30-day mortality, 30-day readmission and compare outcomes between TAVR and sAVR.
METHODS: Data were extracted from the Nationwide Readmissions Database from 2012 to 2017. The primary outcome was 30-day mortality, and the secondary outcome was 30-day readmission.
RESULTS: The study included 110 135 patients who underwent aortic valve replacement. Of these, 59 466 (54.0%) were hospitalised for TAVR, and 50 669 (46.0%) underwent sAVR. Diabetes was present in 36.4% of TAVR patients and 29.1% of sAVR patients. In TAVR patients, the adjusted risk of 30-day readmission and mortality was similar regardless of diabetes status (aHR=0.94 (0.86-1.03); 0.97 (0.84-1.12); respectively). However, sAVR patients with diabetes had a higher adjusted risk of 30-day mortality (aHR=1.13 (1.01-1.25)) but not readmission (aHR=0.92 (0.84-1.01)). When comparing outcomes between TAVR and sAVR in patients with diabetes, TAVR patients were older and had a higher prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Nevertheless, 30-day readmission and mortality were lower in patients who underwent TAVR (aHR=0.59 (0.53-0.67), aHR=0.29 (0.25-0.34), respectively) compared with sAVR. Coronary artery disease was the most significant predictor of readmission in patients with diabetes. CKD increased the risk of mortality by almost twofold in both techniques.
CONCLUSION: Diabetes increases the risk of short-term mortality in sAVR but not TAVR. Moreover, the incidence of 30-day mortality and readmission is lower in TAVR compared with TAVR among patients with diabetes

The drug allergy history tool (DAHT): Validation of a patient-reported survey instrument
BACKGROUND: While the reaction history is critical for drug allergy evaluations and is typically self-reported, there is no validated survey instrument to collect drug allergy history from patients.
OBJECTIVE: We validated a survey instrument that collects patient-reported drug allergy history.
METHODS: The drug allergy history tool (DAHT) was revised after 3 rounds of cognitive testing, assessed for reliability through test-retest comparisons, and assessed for quality and validity through a concordance analysis against electronic health record allergist documentation. Participants completing testing and surveys had 1 or more drug allergies and were recruited from allergy clinics at Massachusetts General Hospital. Primary evaluative measures were percentage agreement and kappa statistic values.
RESULTS: The DAHT was completed by 79 individuals (mean age, 49 [SD 17] years, 85% female, 85% White, 11% Hispanic ethnicity), 29 with single drug allergy labels and 50 with multiple drug allergy labels. The most common drug allergy labels were penicillins (77%), sulfonamides (32%), cephalosporins (15%), and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (8%). The DAHT achieved acceptable test-retest reliability (median κ = 0.64, median agreement = 86%). The DAHT achieved a more complete allergy history than allergist documentation in the electronic health record, with lower median item uncertainty (21% DAHT vs 79% electronic health record) with fair concordance (median κ = 0.21, median agreement = 67%) between the two data sources.
CONCLUSION: The DAHT is a reliable and valid source of patient-reported drug allergy information. This tool can be used in clinical care and clinical research to obtain standardized patient-reported drug allergy history
