Right atrial remodeling and outcome in patients with secondary tricuspid regurgitation
In patients with secondary tricuspid regurgitation (STR), right atrial remodeling (RAR) is a proven marker of disease progression. However, the prognostic value of RAR, assessed by indexed RA volume (RAVi) and reservoir strain (RAS) remains to be clarified. Accordingly, the aim of our study is to investigate the association with outcome of RAR in patients with STR.
