Article Synopsis
- Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a serious condition linked to long-term health issues, including severe right heart failure, but newer less invasive treatments like transcatheter valve interventions (TTVI) are gaining attention.
- A study analyzing over 98,000 tricuspid valve procedures from 2011 to 2020 revealed trends in intervention types, showing a rise in TTVI and a decline in traditional surgical options.
- Findings indicate demographic factors like age and race affect procedure choice and outcomes, with surgical interventions showing higher mortality rates; further research is needed to understand the causes of these evolving trends in treatment results.
