Key result
In a porcine model, augmented reality guidance for mitral valve repair achieved 100% successful tool navigation versus 75% with TEE alone (P=0.2), and significantly reduced navigation times.
Why the study?
Does augmented reality image guidance improve navigation accuracy, time, and safety compared to TEE alone during beating heart mitral valve repair in a porcine model?

Absolute Event Rate: 100% vs 75%
p-value: p=0.2
Augmented reality-enhanced TEE significantly improves the accuracy, speed, and safety of intracardiac navigation during off-pump beating heart mitral valve repair in a preclinical model.
Chu et al. (2012) studied Mitral valve repair. Augmented reality (AR) guidance system vs. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) alone was evaluated on Successful tool navigation from left ventricular apex to MV leaflet (p=0.2). In a porcine model, augmented reality guidance for mitral valve repair achieved 100% successful tool navigation versus 75% with TEE alone (P=0.2), and significantly reduced navigation times.
