Can three-dimensional echocardiography accurately predict complexity of mitral valve repair?

Structured PICO

Does 3D transoesophageal echocardiography accurately predict complexity of mitral valve repair in patients with mitral regurgitation?

Population

Patients with mitral regurgitation due to a range of aetiology

Intervention

3D transoesophageal echocardiography

Outcome

Prediction of mitral repair complexitysurrogate

3D transoesophageal echocardiography serves as an objective tool for predicting the complexity of mitral valve repair across various etiologies of mitral regurgitation.

Abstract

3D transoesophageal echocardiography provides an objective means of predicting mitral repair complexity in mitral regurgitation due to a range of aetiology.
