Key result
MIDA Score accurately predicts post-diagnosis mortality in degenerative MR with excellent concordance.
Why the study?
In degenerative mitral regurgitation, lack of mortality scores predicting death leads to misperception of individual risk and inappropriate decision-making.
Does the MIDA Score accurately predict total mortality in patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation?
Population
3666 patients with pure, isolated degenerative mitral regurgitation diagnosed by echocardiography at tertiary centres
Comparison
Risk stratification by MIDA Score versus standard prognostic markers and EuroScoreII
Design
Cohort study with derivation and external validation cohorts
Follow-up
7.8 ± 5.0 years

MIDA score may aid mortality risk stratification in DMR; leaves open its effect on decisions pending prospective validation.

Does the MIDA Score accurately predict total mortality in patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation?
Effect estimate: c-statistic 0.81
p-value: p=≤0.002
The MIDA Score is a validated prognostic tool that accurately predicts short- and long-term mortality risk in patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation under medical or surgical management.
Grigioni et al. (2017) conducted a cohort in Degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) (n=3,666). MIDA Score was evaluated on Total mortality post-diagnosis (c-statistic 0.81, p=≤0.002). The MIDA Score accurately predicted total mortality post-diagnosis in patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation, demonstrating excellent concordance in the validation cohort (c = 0.81).
