Comparative results of repair of Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation (IMR): Conventional against Trans-Septal Approach

International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research, 2017
Objective: Ischemic mitral regurgitation is common and increases mortality, even when mild. (American Heart Association) AHA and European association have both stressed the need of mitral valve repair in patients with moderate or more regurgitation.

Recurrence of Mitral Valve Regurgitation After Mitral Valve Repair [PDF]

Circulation, 2003
To the Editor: Flameng and colleagues1 are to be congratulated on an excellent observational study of the long-term course after mitral valve repair. This type of data is badly needed. The report could have been improved, however, with less emphasis on statistics and more on the actual data.

Need for expertise in mitral valve regurgitation [PDF]

Open Heart, 2019
The mitral annulus is a three-dimensional, saddle-shaped structure exhibiting dynamic conformational changes during the cardiac cycle.1 The normal annulus contracts and increases in saddle-shaped non-planarity during systole.2 3 Such annular dynamics are important for the balanced distribution of the mechanical stresses imposed by the left ventricle ...

Evaluation of a novel fetal echocardiography training programme in two tertiary care obstetric Centres

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Improving and maintaining high detection rates for major congenital heart disease (CHD) is a priority for successful prenatal anatomy screening programmes. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the utility of on‐site multidimensional targeted training in fetal cardiac screening. Methods A prospective study evaluating a

Familial occurrence of mitral regurgitation in patients with mitral valve prolapse undergoing mitral valve surgery

, 2019
Background: Initial studies have suggested the familial clustering of mitral valve prolapse, but most of them were either community based among unselected individuals or applied non-specific diagnostic criteria.
