Why the study?

Does percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty improve right ventricular functions in patients with mitral stenosis?

Population

61 patients with mitral stenosis in normal sinus rhythm, 68% female, age 42±11-16 years.

Design

Cohort

Follow-up

1 year

Discussion

Implication

PMBV may sustain RV gains only if performed before pulmonary hypertension; hypothesis-generating for randomized timing trials in mitral stenosis.

Does percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty improve right ventricular functions in patients with mitral stenosis?

Population

61 patients with mitral stenosis in normal sinus rhythm, 68% female, age 42±11-16 years.

Intervention

Percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty (PMBV)

Outcome

Right ventricular functions measured by conventional and tissue Doppler echocardiography (including TAPSE, systolic velocity, early diastolic velocity, IVV, MPI, late diastolic velocity, IVA) immediately after, at 3 months, and 1 yearsurrogate

Performing percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty before the development of pulmonary hypertension is crucial for sustaining long-term improvements in right ventricular function.
