Objective: Surgical risk and long-term outcomes when re-crossclamp is required during degenerative mitral valve repair are unknown. We examined the outcomes of patients who required re-crossclamp for mitral valve reintervention.

Among patients with new‐onset or worsening heart failure (HF) undergoing optimization of HF medical therapy, dose up‐titration of angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibitor/angiotensin receptor blocker (ACEi/ARB) therapy was associated with lower likelihood of left atrial adverse remodelling (LAAR).

Heatmap-based 2D Landmark Detection with a Varying Number of Landmarks [PDF]
Mitral valve repair is a surgery to restore the function of the mitral valve. To achieve this, a prosthetic ring is sewed onto the mitral annulus. Analyzing the sutures, which are punctured through the annulus for ring implantation, can be useful in surgical skill assessment, for quantitative surgery and for positioning a virtual prosthetic ring model ...

Triple guideline‐directed medical therapy (GDMT) prescription was associated with a lower 2‐year mortality compared to non‐triple GDMT prescription (A). Such association was observed in patients with concomitant comorbidities (B). CI, confidence interval; CKD, chronic kidney disease; CMP, cardiomyopathy; HR, hazard ratio; MRA, mineralocorticoid ...

Recurrent mitral regurgitation after mitral valve repair for bileaflet lesions in the modern era
Background Good mid-term durability of mitral valve repair of bileaflet lesions has been reported; however, patients may develop failure during follow-up.

A Computational Framework for Atrioventricular Valve Modeling using Open-Source Software [PDF]
Atrioventricular valve regurgitation is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with acquired and congenital cardiac valve disease. Image-derived computational modeling of atrioventricular valves has advanced substantially over the last decade and holds particular promise to inform valve repair in small and heterogeneous populations ...

4D ultrafast ultrasound imaging of naturally occurring shear waves in the human heart [PDF]
The objectives were to develop a novel three-dimensional technology for imaging naturally occurring shear wave (SW) propagation, demonstrate feasibility on human volunteers and quantify SW velocity in different propagation directions. Imaging of natural SWs generated by valve closures has emerged to obtain a direct measurement of cardiac stiffness ...

Aim To evaluate short‐term changes in tricuspid regurgitation (TR) after transcatheter edge‐to‐edge mitral valve repair (M‐TEER) in secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR), their predictors and impact on mortality. Methods and results This is a retrospective analysis of SMR patients undergoing successful M‐TEER (post‐procedural mitral regurgitation ≤2 ...

Surgical repair has been the standard therapy for severe mitral regurgitation causing symptoms or left ventricular dysfunction. Percutaneous mitral valve repair has become an appealing alternative approach for patients who are not suitable for surgery ...

RVD predicts outcome after M‐TEER for PMR. CI, confidence interval; HR, hazard ratio; PMR, primary mitral regurgitation; RVD, right ventricular dysfunction. Abstract Aims Right ventricular dysfunction (RVD), as expressed by right ventricular to pulmonary artery coupling, has recently been identified as a strong outcome predictor in patients undergoing ...
