ABSTRACT: Background
Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) represents a novel treatment option for patients with mitral regurgitation (MR), but little is known about the hemodynamic impact of MR elimination following TMVR. We sought to investigate the hemodynamic impact of TMVR on left ventricular (LV) and right ventricular (RV) function using noninvasive pressure-volume loops.Methods
All consecutive patients undergoing TMVR with dedicated devices between May 2016 and August 2022 were enrolled. The end-diastolic and end-systolic pressure-volume relationships were estimated from 26 patients using single-beat echocardiographic measurements at baseline and after TMVR at discharge. RV function was assessed by RV-pulmonary artery (PA) coupling and RV fractional area change. One-ye
