Why the study?
Do outcomes after percutaneous mitral valve repair with MitraClip differ between patients with logistic EuroSCORE ≥ 20% versus < 20%?
Do outcomes after percutaneous mitral valve repair with MitraClip differ between patients with logistic EuroSCORE ≥ 20% versus < 20%?
Logistic EuroSCORE ≥20%, higher mean transmitral gradient, and residual MR are significant predictors of overall mortality after MitraClip implantation.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Logistic EuroSCORE ≥20% was associated with inferior MitraClip outcomes; hypothesis-generating for risk stratification, prospective validation needed.
Paranskaya et al. (2012) studied this question.
