Article Synopsis
- Doctors need to measure how bad mitral regurgitation (MR) is to help treat patients better.
- They studied the differences between two ways to check MR severity: 2D and 3D echocardiography.
- The 3D method was better at finding out how severe the MR was, showing that it can give more accurate results than the 2D method.
Aim: Data on associations of invasively determined hemodynamic parameters with procedural success and outcomes in patients suffering from mitral regurgitation (MR) undergoing transcatheter edge-to-edge repair of the mitral valve (M-TEER) is limited.
Methods And Results: We enrolled 239 patients with symptomatic MR of grade 2 + , who received M-TEER. All patients underwent extensive pre-interventional invasive hemodynamic measurements via right heart catheterization (mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP), systolic- (PAPsys) and diastolic pulmonary arterial pressure (PAPdia), pulmonary arterial wedge pressure (PAWP), a-wave, v-wave, pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR), transpulmonary pressure gradient (TPG), cardiac index (CI), stroke volume index (SVI)).
