The prevalence and impact of right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) in degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) is unknown. We aimed to determine whether RVD assessed by echocardiography in routine ...
Background Although the prognostic implications of severe mitral regurgitation (MR) are well recognised, they are less clear in moderate MR. We therefore explored the prognostic impact of both ...
Mitral regurgitation occurs when the mitral valve leaks blood back into the left atrium. A person’s heart is made up of four different chambers. The top two chambers are known as the left and ...
Background In patients with tricuspid regurgitation (TR), delayed surgical intervention is associated with poor outcomes, particularly in advanced stages. This study aimed to assess whether earlier ...
NEW research has revealed that residual mitral regurgitation (MR) assessed by 3D-Vena Contracta Area (VCA) during transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) significantly predicts one-year mortality.
1). Figure 1 Pulmonary Arteriography (Obtained by Direct Needle Puncture), Confirming Absence of Pulmonary Regurgitation. A mitral commissurotomy was performed in 7 subjects, and at the time of ...
