Is moderate/severe tricuspid regurgitation associated with increased mortality independent of pulmonary pressures and right heart failure?
Moderate to severe tricuspid regurgitation is an independent predictor of mortality, regardless of pulmonary pressures and right ventricular dysfunction.
Moderate/severe TR is associated with an increased mortality risk, which appears to be independent of pulmonary pressures and RV dysfunction.
