Filter by:Mitral regurgitation (MR) and tricuspid regurgitation (TR) are common causes of breathlessness, fluid retention and other heart failure symptoms, which lead to reduced quality of life and frequent hospitalisation. These conditions are particularly prevalent in older adults with many of these patients being at high risk for surgical intervention due to frailty and comorbidities, leaving them with few treatment alternatives. Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) procedures have increasingly been used to improve the severity of both MR and TR, offering patients symptomatic relief and reductions in heart failure hospitalisation at low procedural risk. There is considerable geographic variation in protocols to assess these patients prior to the procedure and also in length of hospital stay. The standard of care in the UK, and particularly in Oxford, emphasises fewer investigations before the TEER procedure and shorter length of hospital stay. This prospective, observational cohort study will examine the safety and feasibility of this practice.
In the recent years, secondary tricuspid regurgitation (STR) has gained interest due to its high prevalence and impact on outcomes. Transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement or repair represents novel and less invasive alternatives to surgery and has shown early promising results. Treatment options mimic surgical techniques such as leaflet approximation, direct annuloplasty, and heterotopic caval valve implantation, as well as not yet commercially available transcatheter TV replacement systems using orthotopic valve implantation. (5) Among leaflet approximation techniques, the Tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER) using the TriClip™ (Abbott Vascular, Santa Clara, CA, USA) or leaflet approximation with the PASCAL systems (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA, USA) are approved in Europe for minimally invasive TV repair.The purposes of the present study are: i. to use 3DE and CCT to evaluate the effect of T-TEER on the geometry and function of the right heart chambers in patients with STR; ii. to identify the predictors of procedural success potentially related to features of both right chambers geometry and TR jet; iii. to compare the accuracy of 3DE assessment of the right ventricle, the right atrium, and the tricuspid annulus, with the same parameters obtained by CCT, in the setting of T-TEER; and iv. to assess patients' outcome.
To investigate clinical and survival outcomes following transcatheter tricuspid valve repair or replacement.
This study aims to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of multiple and mixed valvular heart disease (MMVD), which includes combinations of stenotic or regurgitant lesions on cardiac valves. The research will be conducted as a multicenter observational study, involving several centers worldwide, and will have a one-year follow-up period (with a possible extension to 5 years). The primary aim is to determine the proportion of MMVD among patients evaluated for valvular heart disease. Secondary aims include the evaluation of the epidemiologic distribution of clinical, biological, and cardiovascular imaging characteristics at baseline, management strategies, and their impact on prognosis. The study will also evaluate clinical outcomes such as mortality, hospitalization for heart failure, and changes in echocardiographic parameters. This research aims to provide valuable insights into the diagnosis, management, and prognosis of MMVD, addressing an important knowledge gap in this area.
Prospective observational cohort study within the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU). We will perform point-of-care-ultrasound (POCUS) to quantify tricuspid regurgitant jet velocity (TRJV) on mechanically ventilated (MV) children. Mechanically ventilated (MV) children approaching extubation as per the discretion of the PICU clinical team will undergo a positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration protocol in a safe and timely manner in the PICU. During this PEEP titration, POCUS will be performed by a pediatric intensivist and interpreted by a pediatric cardiologist. Medical demographics will be collected from the electronic medical record and recorded.
The aim of PLUTO-II is to use biventricular pressure-volume (PV) loop measurements to improve the understanding of direct changes in cardiac and hemodynamic physiology induced by transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) or tricuspid edge-to-edge repair (TEER). These procedures evoke immediate changes in cardiac mechanoenergetics, ventricular-vascular interaction as well as ventricular (in)dependency. Within the context of PLUTO-II, patients will undergo biventricular PV-loop measurements before and after TAVI or TEER. In future, the application of perprocedural PV loop monitoring may tailor the daily individual decision making process during structural interventions in the catheterization laboratory.
The aim of the study is to evaluate early safety and clinical efficacy of mitral allografts in tricuspid valve replacement for primary tricuspid valve diseases.
The objective of the study is to assess the safety and technical feasibility of the Laplace Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement (TTVR) System
The Enavogliflozin Outcome Trial in Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation (EVENT) was designed to examine the hypothesis that, compared with placebo, therapy with the SGLT2 inhibitor enavogliflozin would improve clinical and echocardiographic outcomes in heart failure (HF) patients with functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). The primary objective of the EVENT study is to test the hypothesis that, compared with placebo, therapy with enavogliflozin for 18 months would improve a composite of cardiovascular events or worsening of TR on follow-up echocardiography in HF patients with functional TR and preserved LVEF. The secondary objective is to examine whether enavogliflozin is effective in reduction of renal events and tricuspid regurgitation, and to evaluate whether beneficial effects of enavogliflozin on primary outcomes are associated with reduction of all-cause mortality.
