Abstract
- Background: Hemodynamic impact of residual mitral regurgitation (MR) after transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) is not always univocally measured by transesophageal echocardiographic (TEE) assessment alone. When analyzing TEER procedure result, operators often encounter discrepancy between TEE guidance and invasive hemodynamic monitoring.<br />Objectives: This study sought to investigate the role of invasive hemodynamic monitoring during mitral valve TEER procedure on top of TEE guidance.<br />Methods: We analyzed 78 patients with moderate-to-severe or severe MR who underwent TEER. Mitral pulse pressure fraction (MPF) was extracted from intraprocedural continuous left atrial pressure monitoring. Twenty-three patients with the same grade of MR not undergoing TEER were included as a control group. At follow-up, clinical and functional status in the majority of patients undergoing TEER were reassessed by NYHA classification and the 12-item Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ).<br />Results: TEER significantly reduced MR burden on both TEE guidance and invasive hemodynamic monitoring. Post-TEER MPF was significantly reduced compared to both pre-TEER setting ( P  < 0.001) and control group ( P  < 0.001). At follow-up, while MR reduction assessed by TEE was associated with an improved functional status in terms of the 12-item KCCQ but not of NYHA classification, a greater reduction in MPF was associated with a significant amelioration of both NYHA classification ( P  = 0.036) and 12-item KCCQ ( P  = 0.032).<br />Conclusions: MPF could provide an immediate estimate of the real hemodynamic impact of MR and a prompt prediction of the functional improvement after TEER.<br />Competing Interests: Prof Leone has received speaking honoraria from Abbott Vascular, Medtronic, Bracco Imaging and Abiomed.
