Reduction of radiation exposure during transcatheter edge‐to‐edge mitral valve repair

Abstract: Background: Transcatheter mitral valve repair is an increasingly used therapy for mitral regurgitation which requires fluoroscopic guidance. Limiting radiation exposure during lengthy procedures is important for both patient and operator safety.This study aimed to investigate radiation dose during contemporary use of MitraClip implantation and the effects of a dose reduction program. Methods: A total of 115 patients who underwent MitraClip implantation were prospectively enrolled in a single-center observation… Show more

“…One of the main issues in the field of SHD is the recent evidence of the considerable risk of RAE, underlining the imperative to mitigate this risk, especially for Interventional Echocardiographers (IE) [80]. In addressing this challenge, various approaches may be considered, ranging from the implementation of dedicated structural suite designs and shielding techniques to the development of tailored dose reduction programs, all with the ultimate goal of advancing towards minimally invasive and non-fluoroscopic procedures [69,81,82]. Efforts to reduce fluoroscopy time are paramount, with strategies such as implementing focused protocols or leveraging advancements in artificial intelligence (AI).…”
