Background: Evaluating the size of the pulmonary artery (PA) is key for the echocardiographic assessment of pulmonary hypertension (PH) in dogs.

Hypothesis/objectives: To compare the diagnostic accuracy of the main PA (MPA) and right PA (RPA) sizes for the echocardiographic detection of PH in dogs, and to evaluate differences between precapillary and postcapillary PH dogs.

Animals: Four hundred four dogs; 136 controls and 268 with PH.

Outcomes of a transapical edge-to-edge repair system in secondary mitral regurgitation.

J Invasive Cardiol

January 2025

Department of Cardiology, Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases, China; State Key Laboratory of Cardiovascular Diseases, Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University; NHC Key Laboratory of Ischemic Heart Diseases; Key Laboratory of Viral Heart Diseases, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences; National Clinical Research Center for Interventional Medicine, Shanghai, China.

Objectives: The ValveClamp system (Hanyu Medical Technology) is a novel transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) system designed for ease of operation; however, there is a lack of data on its application in secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR). The authors report the mid-term outcomes of TEER using the ValveClamp system in SMR.

Methods: The study prospectively analyzed consecutive severe SMR patients who underwent transapical ValveClamp implantation at 10 Chinese centers.
