Outcomes of transcatheter edge-to-edge repair for atrial functional mitral regurgitation

CONCLUSIONS: An MR reduction to ≤1+ following TEER was associated with a lower risk of clinical outcomes in patients with AFMR, while an MPG ≥5 mmHg was related to a higher risk of clinical outcomes. Optimal MR reduction by TEER may have potential benefits on the prognosis of patients with AFMR, although the prognostic benefit may be attenuated by an elevated MPG.PMID:38389471 | DOI:10.4244/EIJ-D-23-00819
