Abstract:Backgrounds:
It remains uncertain which kind of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) patients would benefit the most from transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER).
Objectives
We aim to investigate the relationship between right ventricular function, as assessed by pressure-strain loops (PSL), and post-TEER clinical improvement.
Methods
A total of 48 HFrEF patients (68 ± 15 yrs) with moderate-to-severe or severe SMR were enrolled for TEER. Impaired health status (Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Qu… Show more
