Functional mitral regurgitation and left atrial myopathy in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, 2020
Mild to moderate functional mitral regurgitation (MR) is common in patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) where it is usually considered as an innocent bystander. We hypothesized that MR in HFpEF reflects greater left atrial (

Ischaemic mitral regurgitation [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal, 2009
A 79-year-old woman with a history of treated hypertension and permanent atrial fibrillation was referred because of increasing shortness of breath at minimal exercise. Blood pressure was 110/49 mmHg, heart rate 80 b.p.m. (peak exercise rate 146 b.p.m.), and brain natriuretic peptide 86 pg/mL. Myocardial perfusion scan [ Panel A : stress (upper …

Mitral regurgitation

open access: yesSwiss Medical Weekly, 2010
Mitral regurgitation (MR) involves systolic retrograde flow from the left ventricle into the left atrium. While trivial MR is frequent in healthy subjects, moderate to severe MR constitutes the second most prevalent valve disease after aortic valve stenosis.

Atrial secondary mitral regurgitation: prevalence, characteristics, management, and long-term outcomes

open access: yesEcho Research and Practice, 2023
Highlights Atrial secondary mitral regurgitation is highly prevalent amongst patients with at least moderate-severe mitral regurgitation. Patients with atrial secondary mitral regurgitation are older, more likely to be female and usually have atrial ...

Percutaneous Repair or Medical Treatment for Secondary Mitral Regurgitation

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2018
BACKGROUND In patients who have chronic heart failure with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, severe secondary mitral‐valve regurgitation is associated with a poor prognosis. Whether percutaneous mitral‐valve repair improves clinical outcomes in

The impact of residual mitral regurgitation after MitraClip therapy in functional mitral regurgitation

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, 2020
MitraClip therapy for the treatment of functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) is an increasingly used intervention for high‐risk surgical patients. The aim of this observational study was to assess the impact of residual mitral regurgitation (rMR) at ...

37. Restoration of normal left ventricular geometry after percutaneous mitral annuloplasty – Case report and review of literature

open access: yesJournal of the Saudi Heart Association, 2015
Surgical mitral valve intervention is not considered suitable in patients with severe functional mitral regurgitation due to severe dilated cardiomyopathy and severe systolic dysfunction.

Diastolic Mitral Regurgitation [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 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%).
