Transcatheter tricuspid intervention is a rapidly evolving field with multiple classes of therapeutic devices currently in development. Procedural success in tricuspid intervention is predicated on appropriate device selection for patient specific anatomy and satisfactory imaging for intra-procedural guidance. This review will outline protocols and methodology for multi-modality imaging assessment of the tricuspid valve and associated structures, with emphasis on anatomic and functional characteristics that determine suitability for each class of tricuspid intervention. Intra-procedural imaging requirements for each class of device, with design and procedural imaging guidance of specific devices, will also be addressed.

Background: With an increasing number of Fontan patients surviving into adulthood, the burden of end-stage heart failure is increasing. Prior studies have reported suboptimal heart transplantation (HTx) outcomes. Therefore, the authors describe their institutional experience of HTx in patients with Fontan circulation failure, including heart-liver transplantation (HLTx) and pretransplant systemic ventricular assist device (SVAD) therapies.

Right Ventricular Function and Outcomes Stratified by the Effective Regurgitant Orifice Area in Secondary Tricuspid Regurgitation.

Background: In patients with moderate and severe secondary tricuspid regurgitation (STR), the effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA), corrected using the proximal isovelocity surface area (PISA) method for tricuspid valve leaflet tethering and low TR jet velocities, has an unclear threshold for identifying high-risk patients. This study aimed to establish a risk-based EROA cutoff and assess the impact of right ventricular (RV) remodeling on outcomes in low-risk STR patients according to EROA.

Methods: We included 513 consecutive outpatients (age 75±13 years, 47% male) with moderate and severe STR.

The year 2024 has witnessed substantial advancements in interventional cardiology, encompassing both coronary and structural interventions.In coronary field, trials have explored percutaneous innovations for coronary lesions, strategies for managing post‑infarction cardiogenic shock and non‑invasive approaches for guiding revascularization. The uploaded guidelines for chronic coronary syndromes emphasize individualized care, integrating modalities such as fractional flow reserve (FFR), intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), optical coherence tomography (OCT) and new teatments, including cochicine, GLP-1 receptor agonists and bempedoic acid.

Unlabelled: Introduction Acute heart failure (AHF) is a life-threatening condition that requires swift diagnosis and tailored management to enhance patient outcomes. In the pursuit of more precise prognostic indicators, Tricuspid Annular Plane Systolic Excursion (TAPSE) and Pulmonary Arterial Systolic Pressure (PASP) have emerged as potential significant advancements. The TAPSE/PASP ratio, a novel parameter, has recently gained attention as a promising predictor of outcomes in acute heart failure.

Background: Previous studies on the prevalence and prognosis of nutritional status in valvular heart disease (VHD) were primarily limited to aortic stenosis. The nutritional status of other types of VHDs remained an underexplored area.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of malnutrition risk in different types of VHD and investigate the association between malnutrition risk and adverse clinical events.
