HonorHealth Research Institute clinical trial, using non-surgical techniques, showed 86% of patients with a type of usually ...

Major limitations of the study include its observational nature and small sample, Ninios cautioned.

Background Proximal flow convergence is a promising method to quantify mitral regurgitation but may overestimate flow when the flow field is constrained.This has not been investigated clinically, nor ...

Objectives Differences in terms of safety and efficacy of percutaneous edge-to-edge mitral repair between patients with functional and degenerative mitral regurgitation (MR) are not well established.

Objectives Echocardiographic methods are used to quantify mitral regurgitation (MR) severity; however, their applicability, accuracy and reproducibility have been debated. We aimed to develop and ...

Background: Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) is frequently used to treat mitral regurgitation (MR) patients. Despite its widely reported efficacy, complications such as single leaflet device ...

Mitral valve regurgitation: Primary mitral valve regurgitation can develop due to congenital heart defects, infections, and complications such as rheumatic heart disease, ...

BACKGROUND: Severe functional mitral regurgitation (fMR) is a heterogenous disease that exhibits different underlying pathophysiological mechanisms and represents independent entities. The aim of this ...
