Defining “Severe” Secondary Mitral€Regurgitation
Fro Pla De Ce #D No ve rec Dia La res ET Me Ge lat Lis Yo Ma Secondary mitral regurgitation (MR) is associated with poor outcomes, but its correction does not reverse the underlying left ventricular (LV) pathology or improve the prognosis. The recently published American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology guidelines on valvular heart disease generated considerable controversy by r...
متن کاملSecondary Mitral Regurgitation in€Heart€Failure
Ma The development of secondary mitral regurgitation (MR) due to left ventricular dysfunction, also known as functional MR, is strongly associated with a poor prognosis in patients with heart failure. The mechanisms underlying secondary MR are multifactorial; accurate imaging assessment of secondary MR may be challenging and nuanced; and the appropriate roles of medical, surgical, and intervent...
متن کاملStatins research unfinished saga: desirability versus feasibility
Drugs in the same class are generally thought to be therapeutically equivalent because of similar mechanisms of action (the so-called "class effect"). However, statins differ in multiple characteristics, including liver and renal metabolism, half-life, effects on several serum lipid components, bioavailability and potency. Some are fungal derivatives, and others are synthetic compounds. The per...
متن کاملRole of mitral valve surgery for secondary mitral regurgitation in heart failure.
n nonischemic and ischemic cardiomyopathies, geometric perturations in the left ventricle (LV) result in dysfunction of the mitral alve and secondary (functional) mitral regurgitation (MR). An ncrease in interpapillary muscle distance, annular dilation, and nhanced leaflet tethering contribute to secondary MR. Because he MR in these patients is primarily a function of distorted LV eometry rathe...
متن کاملClinical significance of exercise pulmonary hypertension in secondary mitral regurgitation.
In patients with heart failure, exercise echocardiography can help in risk stratification and decision making. The prognostic significance of exercise pulmonary hypertension (PH) in patients with secondary mitral regurgitation (MR) remains unknown. The aim of the present study was to assess the prognostic value of exercise PH in patients with secondary MR and narrow QRS intervals. From 2005 to ...
