Overview

May inform repair decisions in degenerative MR; leaves open randomized confirmation for expanded indications.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Patients with mitral regurgitation, including degenerative mitral regurgitation with bileaflet and anterior leaflet prolapse, congenital atrioventricular valve incompetence, and those requiring systolic anterior motion prevention/treatment or a rescue procedure.
I
Intervention
Edge-to-edge technique (Alfieri technique) for mitral valve repair

The edge-to-edge Alfieri technique is a standardized, functional approach for mitral valve repair with proven long-term efficacy in degenerative mitral regurgitation and expanding indications.
