Debate: Intervention on the mitral and the tricuspid valves. Perspective from surgery
QUESTION: What is the current status of percutaneous coronary interventions to treat functional mitral regurgitation (MR)? ANSWER: Functional MR is one of the clinical conditions within cardiology that have experienced more changes over the last few ...

Motion correction for the quantification of mitral regurgitation using the control volume method [PDF]
Quantifying mitral regurgitation is difficult because of the complexity of the flow, geometry and motion of the mitral valve. In this paper a MRI compatible phantom was built incorporating a left ventricle and mitral valve motion. Valve motion was obtained using a pneumatic piston.

Left Atrial Overload Can Be Used to Estimate Mitral Regurgitant Volume [PDF]
This study was conducted to assess the accuracy of the estimated mitral regurgitant volume using both the left atrial filling volume and the systolic component of pulmonary vein flow expressed as the percent of its total. Since mitral regurgitation fills the left atrial chamber, the variation in atrial volume during ventricular systole has been ...

Percutaneous edge-to-edge mitral valve (MV) repair using MitraClip has been recently established as a treatment option for patients with heart failure and functional mitral regurgitation (MR), which significantly expands the number of patients that can ...

Background To quantify mitral regurgitation (MR) with CMR, the regurgitant volume can be calculated as the difference between the left ventricular (LV) stroke volume (SV) measured with the Simpson’s method and the reference SV, i.e. the right ventricular

Abstract A 70-year-old woman who had cardiac sarcoidosis and severe tethering mitral regurgitation (MR) and had been implanted with a biventricular pacemaker experienced recurrent hospitalisation due to decompensated heart failure (HF).

Background When feasible, guidelines recommend mitral valve repair (MVr) over mitral valve replacement (MVR) to treat primary mitral regurgitation (MR), based upon historic outcome studies and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) reverse remodeling ...

Quantification of primary mitral regurgitation by echocardiography: A practical appraisal
The accurate quantification of primary mitral regurgitation (MR) and its consequences on cardiac remodeling is of paramount importance to determine the best timing for surgery in these patients.
