Long‐Term Effect of Percutaneous Transvenous Mitral Commissurotomy on Atrial Electromechanical Delay and P‐Wave Dispersion in Patients With Severe Mitral Stenosis

Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, Volume 31, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) remains a significant health burden, particularly in low‐ and middle‐income countries, with rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS) contributing substantially to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy (PTMC) is an effective treatment for symptomatic MS, yet its ...
