Emergent Presentation of Decompensated Mitral Valve Prolapse and Atrial Septal Defect

open access: yesWestern 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.

Papillary muscle traction in mitral valve prolapse: Quantitation by two-dimensional echocardiography [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Previous angiographic observations in patients with mitral valve prolapse have suggested that superior leaflet displacement results in abnormal superior tension on the papillary muscle tips that causes their superior traction or displacement.

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

open access: yesEuropean 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

Jefferson Surgeon Performs Minimally Invasive Robotic Mitral Valve Repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Routine physical exams often reveal the presence of a heart murmur, which can be the first sign of mitral valve prolapse. Typically diagnosed with an echocardiogram, mitral valve prolapse is a condition in which the valve separating the upper and lower ...

Prognostic value of NT‐proBNP in patients with primary mitral regurgitation undergoing transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
In the PRIME‐MR study, patients with higher N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) tertiles more frequently reached death or heart failure hospitalization (HFH) within 3 years. Log‐transformed NT‐proBNP levels independently predicted the primary endpoint (adjusted hazard ratio 1.17, 95% confidence interval 1.07–1.28; p < 0.001).

Mitral Valve Prolapse and Sudden Cardiac Death: A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association : Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Background The relationship between mitral valve prolapse (MVP) and sudden cardiac death (SCD) remains controversial. In this systematic review, we evaluate the relationship between isolated MVP and SCD to better define a potential high‐risk subtype.

Prominent Chiari Network as a Cause of Cyanosis in Infants: A Case Report and Implications for Pediatric Cardiology Practice

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
A prominent Chiari network can cause cyanosis in infants by inducing a positional right‐to‐left atrial shunt. Accurate diagnosis enabled conservative management, delaying surgery until optimal conditions. This case emphasizes the importance of echocardiographic evaluation in differentiating cyanosis mechanisms to guide appropriate treatment in ...

Primary cilia defects causing mitral valve prolapse

open access: yesScience Translational Medicine, 2019
Genetic variations in primary cilia genes cause defects during valve morphogenesis that can progress to mitral valve prolapse in the adult. DZIPping along to diagnosis Mitral valve prolapse is a common congenital abnormality that can cause severe ...

Prediction model for degeneration behaviour of mitral valve [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Degenerative mitral valve prolapse without proper monitoring can cause severe mitral valve failure and occasionally lead to sudden death if the surgical correction is not performed on time.
