Columbia and Cornell researchers developed an echo AI model that could improve the difficult task of mitral regurgitation diagnosis, and might even represent an AI-driven step towards enhancing all valvular regurgitation assessments. The post New Echo AI Model Could Streamline Mitral Regurgitation Diagnosis appeared first on Cardiac Wire.
Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) and mitral valve (MV) surgery (both replacement and repair) are two approaches for managing patients with heartfailure (HF) and secondary mitral regurgitation (MR).
Columbia University Irving Medical Center’s Division of Cardiology has announced its launch of the Mitral & Tricuspid Center. Kodali, MD, pictured here, is one of the members of its leadership team, and director of the Structural Heart and Valve Center at CUIMC/NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital.
Secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR) is a complex and evolving challenge in the landscape of heartfailure (HF) management. Or should we adopt an integrated approach, incorporating early mitral valve intervention, especially for patients with persistent symptoms despite.
Abstract Worldwide, valvular heart disease (VHD) is a common cause of hospitalization for acute heartfailure. In acute heartfailure caused by VHD, symptoms result from rapid haemodynamic changes and subsequent decline in cardiac function, and if left untreated, leads to acute decompensation and cardiogenic shock.
