Mitral valve interventions in heart failure [PDF]

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, 2018
AbstractSecondary mitral regurgitation (MR) results from left ventricular dilatation and dysfunction. Quantification of secondary MR is challenging because of the underlying myocardial disease. Clinical and echocardiographic evaluation requires a multi‐parametric approach.

Mitral valve repair in heart failure [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, 2000
AbstractMitral regurgitation (MR) is a frequent complication of end‐stage heart failure. Historically, these patients were either managed medically or with mitral valve replacement, both associated with poor outcomes. Mitral valve repair via an ‘undersized’ annuloplasty repair is safe and effectively corrects MR in heart‐failure patients.

Mitral valve opening in the ovine heart [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 1998
To study the three-dimensional size, shape, and motion of the mitral leaflets and annulus, we surgically attached radiopaque markers to sites on the mitral annulus and leaflets in seven sheep. After 8 days of recovery, the animals were sedated, and three-dimensional marker positions were measured by computer analysis of biplane videofluorograms (60/s).

Pseudo-double orifice mitral valve or heart in heart mitral valve

open access: yesJournal of Indian College of Cardiology, 2016
Abstract Pseudo-double orifice mitral valve is a condition characterised by double orifice appearance of mitral valve and it occurs as a result of acquired heart disease. This article describes echocardiographic appearance of this condition and helps in differentiating from double orifice mitral valve.

Differential Biological Effects of Dietary Lipids and Irradiation on the Aorta, Aortic Valve, and the Mitral Valve

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
AimsDietary cholesterol and palmitic acid are risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) affecting the arteries and the heart valves. The ionizing radiation that is frequently used as an anticancer treatment promotes CVD.

A parallel interaction potential approach coupled with the immersed boundary method for fully resolved simulations of deformable interfaces and membranes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper we show and discuss the use of a versatile interaction potential approach coupled with an immersed boundary method to simulate a variety of flows involving deformable bodies.

Comparative Anatomy of Mitral and Tricuspid Valve: What Can the Interventionlist Learn From the Surgeon

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2018
Transcatheter valve interventions on the mitral and tricuspid valves entail increasing complexity. Part of the knowledge that has been generated during the development of mitral devices can be transferred to the tricuspid valve (TV).

Transthoracic three-dimensional echocardiography for the assessment of straddling tricuspid or mitral valves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background The advent of 3D echocardiography has provided a technique which, potentially, could afford significant additional information over conventional cross-sectional echocardiography in the assessment of patients with straddling atrioventricular ...

Combined cesarean section and mitral valve replacement in severe symptomatic mitral valve disease with unfavorable valve anatomy: Experience at a tertiary referral center of North India

open access: yesHeart India, 2019
Objective: To discuss the management in a subset of patients with severe mitral valve disease having calcified, nonpliable valves not suitable for percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty during pregnancy, presenting with Stage III–IV of the clinical ...

Flow structure in healthy and pathological left ventricles with natural and prosthetic mitral valves

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2017
In this paper, the structure and the dynamics of the flow in the left heart ventricle are studied for different pumping efficiencies and mitral valve types (natural, biological and mechanical prosthetic).
