Quantitation of Mitral Regurgitation [PDF]

Circulation, 2012
Significant mitral regurgitation (MR) is estimated to afflict >2 million Americans and is anticipated to increase in prevalence as the baby boomer population ages.1 Approximately 10% of people ≥75 years of age have significant MR,1 and these patients have decreased survival regardless of whether MR is caused by a primary leaflet abnormality2 or is ...

Diastolic Mitral Regurgitation

Methodist DeBakey Cardiovasc Journal, 2021
An 89-year-old female with a history of hypertension presented to the hospital with symptoms of fatigue. Her electrocardiogram (ECG) showed high-grade atrioventricular (AV) block, so a transthoracic echocardiogram was obtained to assess for structural heart abnormalities (Figure 1).

Clinical manifestations and results of reconstructive surgeries in patients with primary and secondary mitral insufficiency

Zaporožskij Medicinskij Žurnal, 2020
Mitral valve reconstruction has become a priority option for mitral regurgitation correction, due to the documented advantages, comparing with valve replacement, in terms of long-term survival, absence of valve-related side effects, and preservation of ...

Diastolic Mitral Regurgitation [PDF]

Circulation, 1999
A67-year-old man underwent transthoracic echocardiography for the evaluation of heart failure. The echocardiographic examination demonstrated significant dilatation of all cardiac chambers with marked global left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction (LV ejection fraction of 10% to 15%).

Degenerative mitral regurgitation

Nature Reviews Disease Primers, 2023
Degenerative mitral regurgitation is a major threat to public health and affects at least 24 million people worldwide, with an estimated 0.88 million disability-adjusted life years and 34,000 deaths in 2019. Improving access to diagnostic testing and to timely curative therapies such as surgical mitral valve repair will improve the outcomes of many ...

Functional mitral regurgitation [PDF]

Indian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2019
Dr. O.P. Yadava, Editor-in-Chief, IJTC, and Dr. J.L. Pomar, Former President, EACTS, discuss issues related to secondary mitral regurgitation (MR). Though it is considered a ventricular disease, mitral valve leaflets are not entirely normal. Alignment of subvalvular apparatus plays a more dominant role than annular dilatation. Early repair is preferred.

Effect of concurrent mitral valve surgery for secondary mitral regurgitation upon mortality after aortic valve replacement or coronary artery bypass surgery

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
ObjectivesIt is uncertain whether concurrent mitral valve repair or replacement for moderate or greater secondary mitral regurgitation at the time of coronary artery bypass graft or aortic valve replacement surgery improves long-term survival ...

Hemodynamics in mitral regurgitation – before and after correction with MitraClip [PDF]

Българска кардиология, 2021
Haemodynamic changes in mitral regurgitation underlie triggering of patient’s symptoms and development of heart failure. A number of endovascular methods for the correction of mitral regurgitation successfully counteract pathological ...
