Volume-Outcome Association of Mitral Valve Surgery in the United States.

open access: yesJAMA cardiology, 2020
Importance Early surgery for severe primary degenerative mitral regurgitation is recommended, provided optimal outcomes are achievable. Contemporary national data defining mitral valve surgery volume and outcomes are lacking.

Transcatheter Mitral‐Valve Repair in Patients with Heart Failure

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2018
BACKGROUND Among patients with heart failure who have mitral regurgitation due to left ventricular dysfunction, the prognosis is poor. Transcatheter mitral‐valve repair may improve their clinical outcomes.

Computational analysis of flow structures in turbulent ventricular blood flow associated with mitral valve intervention [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology (2022) 752, 2021
Cardiac disease and clinical intervention may both lead to an increased risk for thrombosis events due to modified blood flow in the heart, and thereby a change in the mechanical stimuli of blood cells passing through the chambers of the heart. Specifically, the degree of platelet activation is influenced by the level and type of mechanical stresses in

ACVIM consensus guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of myxomatous mitral valve disease in dogs

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2019
This report, issued by the ACVIM Specialty of Cardiology consensus panel, revises guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD, also known as endocardiosis and degenerative or chronic valvular heart disease) in dogs,

Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement After Surgical Repair or Replacement

open access: yesCirculation, 2020
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Background: Mitral valve-in-valve (ViV) and valve-in-ring (ViR) are alternatives to surgical reoperation in patients with recurrent mitral valve failure after previous surgical valve repair or ...

Mitral valve repair, how to make volume not matter; techniques, tendencies, and outcomes, a single center experience

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2018
Background Recent evidence has showed us that quality of mitral valve repair is strongly related to volume. However, this study shows how low-volume centers can achieve results in mitral valve repair surgery comparable to those reported by referral ...

A retrospective analysis of mitral valve pathology in the setting of bicuspid aortic valves

open access: yesEcho Research and Practice, 2017
The therapeutic implications of bicuspid aortic valve associations have come under scrutiny in the transcatheter aortic valve implantation era. We evaluate the spectrum of mitral valve disease in patients with bicuspid aortic valves to determine the need

Geometric description for the anatomy of the mitral valve: A review

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, 2020
The mitral valve is a complex anatomical structure whose physiological functioning relies on the biomechanical properties and structural integrity of its components.

The effects of leaflet material properties on the simulated function of regurgitant mitral valves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Advances in three-dimensional imaging provide the ability to construct and analyze finite element (FE) models to evaluate the biomechanical behavior and function of atrioventricular valves. However, while obtaining patient-specific valve geometry is now possible, non-invasive measurement of patient-specific leaflet material properties remains nearly ...
