Complications Following Percutaneous Mitral Valve Repair

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2019
Mitral valve disease affects more than 4 million people in the United States and it is the second most prevalent valvulopathy in Europe. The gold standard of treatment in these patients is surgical repair or mitral valve replacement.

Long-term outcome after mitral valve repair: a risk factor analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objective: Mitral valve repair is the gold standard to restore mitral valve function and is now known to have good long-term outcome. In order to help perioperative decision making, we analyzed our collective to find independent risk factors affecting ...

Long‐term prognosis of pure and impure tachycardiomyopathy

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims Tachycardia‐induced cardiomyopathy (TCM) is a reversible form of heart failure (HF) driven by arrhythmias, often atrial fibrillation (AF). While reversible, TCM's long‐term prognosis remains unclear, especially in comparison to HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).

Mitral Valve Repair: The Chordae Tendineae

open access: yesJournal of Tehran University Heart Center, 2015
Repair of the mitral valve is the treatment of choice for mitral valve regurgitation when the anatomy is favorable. It is well known that mitral valve repair enjoys better clinical and functional results than any other type of valve substitute. This fact

3D printing is a transformative technology in congenital heart disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Survival in congenital heart disease has steadily improved since 1938, when Dr. Robert Gross successfully ligated for the first time a patent ductus arteriosus in a 7-year-old child.

Is mitral valve repair superior to replacement for chronic ischemic mitral regurgitation with left ventricular dysfunction?

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2010
Background This study was undertaken to compare mitral valve repair and replacement as treatments for ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) with left ventricular dysfunction (LVD).

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

Analysis of left ventricular behaviour in diastole by means of finite element method [PDF]

open access: yes, 1979
The human left ventricle in diastole can be modelled as a passive structure with incremental internal pressure change being considered as the load. Recent developments in engineering stress analysis provide techniques for predicting the behaviour of ...
