Sudden cardiac arrest and coexisting mitral valve prolapse: a case report and literature review [PDF]

, 2016
The aetiology of sudden cardiac arrest can often be identified to underlying cardiac pathology. Mitral valve prolapse is a relatively common valvular pathology with symptoms manifesting with increasing severity of mitral regurgitation (MR). It is unusual

Outcomes following repair of bileaflet prolapse due to myxomatous disease of the mitral valve

The Egyptian Heart Journal, 2014
Myxomatous disease represents the most common cause of MR due to bileaflet prolapse. Mitral valve repair of mitral regurgitation (MR) due to bileaflet prolapse poses many technical challenges.

How to manage an athlete with mitral valve prolapse.

European Journal of Preventive Cardiology, 2020
INTRODUCTION Under the term degenerative mitral valve prolapse different pathophysiological and clinical entities coexist in a spectrum ranging from Barlow's disease to fibroelastic deficiency, and represent the most common cause of mitral regurgitation ...

Assessment of Left Atrial Deformation and Function by 2-Dimensional Speckle Tracking Echocardiography in Healthy Dogs and Dogs With Myxomatous Mitral Valve Disease [PDF]

, 2017
open7noBackground: The assessment of left atrial (LA) function by 2-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) holds important clinical implications in human medicine. Few similar data are available in dogs.

Novel Techniques for Alcohol Septal Ablation in Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy With Complex Anatomy: A Case Series

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alcohol septal ablation (ASA) is an established treatment for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). However, conventional techniques may be challenging in cases with complex septal branch anatomy, including hairpin curves, extremely small branches, and acute angle bifurcations.

Prognostic implications of functional tricuspid regurgitation in asymptomatic degenerative mitral regurgitation

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) associated with degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) accentuates the severity of heart failure and is a marker of poor prognosis. Little is known about FTR associated with asymptomatic DMR. Methods and results The study included 1249 asymptomatic patients with moderate or severe DMR from the ...

Dapagliflozin effect on functional mitral regurgitation and myocardial remodelling: The DEFORM trial

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) is associated with adverse outcomes in patients with heart failure, and current guideline‐directed medical therapy (GDMT) offers limited efficacy in managing FMR. This study aims to evaluate the therapeutic impact of the sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) dapagliflozin in patients with ...

Employment of artificial intelligence for an unbiased evaluation regarding the recovery of right ventricular function after mitral valve transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Impact of mitral transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) on left and right heart function. IQR, interquartile range; LA, left atrial; RVEF, right ventricular ejection fraction; sPAP, systolic pulmonary artery pressure; TAPSE, tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion. Abstract Aims Long‐standing severe mitral regurgitation (MR) leads to left atrial

Emergent Presentation of Decompensated Mitral Valve Prolapse and Atrial Septal Defect

Western Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2015
Mitral valve prolapse is not commonly on the list of differential diagnosis when a patient presents in the emergency department (ED) in severe distress, presenting with non-specific features such as abdominal pain, tachycardia and dyspnea.
