ABSTRACT
Background:
Residual mitral regurgitation (MR) following mitral valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) is associated with worse outcomes. This study sought to identify echocardiographic predictors of suboptimal residual MR after TEER in patients with secondary MR.Methods:
In this retrospective single-center study, we identified all patients with secondary MR who underwent TEER between 2016 and 2021. Pre- and intraprocedural transesophageal echocardiographic images were reviewed. The primary outcome was suboptimal residual MR, defined as ≥2+ residual MR on postprocedural transesophageal echocardiography. The association of preprocedural echocardiographic parameters with the primary outcome was tested via logistic regression.Results:
Sixty-five patients (69 ± 15 years; 49% women) with secondary MR underwent TEER with MitraClip. All patients had moderate-severe or severe (3-4+) MR preoperatively, with an average left ventricular ejection fraction of 35% and New York Heart Association class III symptoms. Procedural success, defined as ≤2+ MR post-TEER, was achieved in 94%. A suboptimal residual MR was observed in 38%. Independent predictors of suboptimal residual MR included bicommissural MR (odds ratio [OR], 7.95; 95% CI, 1.50-42.3; P = .02), 2-dimensional anteroposterior diameter (OR, 6.46; 95% CI, 1.85-22.51 per cm; P < .01), and mitral valve area to left ventricular end-diastolic volume ratio (OR, 0.69; 95% CI, 0.50-0.93 per mm2/mL; P = .02).Conclusions:
Certain echocardiographic features, including bicommissural MR, a larger annular diameter, and a smaller ratio of mitral valve area to left ventricular end-diastolic volume, are associated with suboptimal residual MR following TEER. These preprocedural measurements may optimize patient selection in those with secondary MR being considered for TEER.
