Preoperative Prediction Models for 30-Day All-Cause Mortality After Mitral Valve Repair in Dogs: A Single-Center Retrospective Cohort Study. [PDF]
J Vet Intern MedABSTRACT Background Mitral valve repair (MVR) has emerged as a novel surgical intervention for dogs with myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD). However, no objective risk assessment method has been established for these cases. Objectives The primary aim of this study was to develop and evaluate preoperative prediction models for 30‐day postoperative ...

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

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.Abstract Background Transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (TEER) has been shown to be an effective treatment option for patients experiencing cardiogenic shock (CS) with concomitant high‐grade mitral valve regurgitation. However, haemodynamic changes following M‐TEER have not been thoroughly investigated. Afterload mismatch, leading to the deterioration of

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.

Analysis of Echocardiography Images Using Grid Independent Technique for Patients with Mitral Valve Problems (MVP) [PDF]
, 2011 With echocardiography images collected by a transthoracic transducer, can be used to evaluate the mitral valve problems. Incorrect surgical of mitral valves failure will cause death and the surgical repair can be improved by knowing the correlations ...

Transthoracic three-dimensional echocardiography for the assessment of straddling tricuspid or mitral valves [PDF]
, 2008 Background The advent of 3D echocardiography has provided a technique which, potentially, could afford significant additional information over conventional cross-sectional echocardiography in the assessment of patients with straddling atrioventricular ...

Acoustic features are independently associated with heart failure and pulmonary hypertension
ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Acoustic analysis of speech has discriminated decompensated acute heart failure (HF). Speech rate (SR) and cepstral peak prominence (CPP) variation are among features previously evaluated. However, the association between SR and CPP and chronic stable HF with and without pulmonary hypertension (PH) as well as PH alone have not ...

Quality of life after transcatheter tricuspid valve repair: results from the Tri.FR trial
ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.This study is one of the first randomised trials to demonstrate that transcatheter tricuspid valve repair (T‐TEER) yields substantial and sustained improvements in quality of life across multiple domains, beyond clinical and echocardiographic outcomes.
