Percutaneous Repair or Medical Treatment for Secondary Mitral Regurgitation
New England Journal of Medicine, 2018BACKGROUND 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 diagnosis of acute mitral regurgitation (MR) is often missed or delayed because the clinical presentation is substantially different from that in patients with chronic MR.

Mitral regurgitation (MR) is increasingly prevalent and poses an important public health problem. There are several mechanisms through which MR can occur. Primary (organic) MR is due to intrinsic valvular disease, whereas secondary (functional) MR is due to disruption of an otherwise normal mitral apparatus because of abnormal ventricular geometry ...

Five-Year Follow-up after Transcatheter Repair of Secondary Mitral Regurgitation.
New England Journal of Medicine, 2023BACKGROUND Data from a 5-year follow-up of outcomes after transcatheter edge-to-edge repair of severe mitral regurgitation, as compared with outcomes after maximal doses of guideline-directed medical therapy alone, in patients with heart failure are now ...

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 ...

Chronic severe mitral regurgitation is a surgically correctable disorder. Advances in cardiac surgery (including mitral valve repair and less invasive operations), a low postoperative complication rate, and improved long-term prognosis have reduced the threshold for surgical referral. Choosing the optimal timing for surgery remains the cardinal problem.

Importance Traditionally, physicians distinguished between mitral regurgitation (MR) as a determinant of outcomes and MR as a biomarker of left-ventricular (LV) dysfunction by designating the lesions as primary or secondary, respectively.

Quantitation of Mitral Regurgitation
Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2011Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most frequent valve disease. Nevertheless, evaluation of MR severity is difficult because standard color flow imaging is plagued by considerable pitfalls. Modern surgical indications in asymptomatic patients require precise assessment of MR severity.

Degenerative mitral regurgitation
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2020Purpose of review Degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) continues to be an important cause of morbidity and mortality with surgical mitral valve repair remaining the gold standard for the treatment of severe disease. The purpose of this review is to summarize recent advances in the understanding of DMR as well as the progress
