Predicting postoperative systolic dysfunction in mitral regurgitation: CT vs. echocardiography

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Introduction Volume overload from mitral regurgitation can result in left ventricular systolic dysfunction. We compared volumetric CT-based and 2D echocardiographic indices of LV size and function as predictors of post-operative systolic dysfunction following mitral repair. Validation with prospective study is warranted.

Fine tuning for totally endoscopic mitral valve surgery: ERAS applications

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

AimOne of the philosophies of minimally invasive mitral surgery is to enhance recovery after surgery (ERAS). In this report, we aim to present institutional protocol for ERAS and its results in patients who underwent totally endoscopic mitral valve surgery (TEMVS).Patients Mitral repair was performed in 58.4% of the cases.

Common Imaging Test Uses AI to Help Identify Heart Valve Disease

DAIC

The work builds upon research published last year showing that an AI program can detect disease in the hearts mitral valve by analyzing ultrasound images of the heart. Investigators trained a deep-learning program to flag patterns of tricuspid regurgitation in 47,312 echocardiograms done at Cedars-Sinai between 2011 and 2021.
