Assessment of the GLIDE Score for Prediction of Mild Tricuspid Regurgitation following Tricuspid Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The GLIDE Score is an anatomical scoring system designed to predict moderate residual tricuspid regurgitation (TR) immediately following transcatheter tricuspid edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER).

Objectives

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the GLIDE Score's predictive capability for achieving a postprocedural TR grade of mild or better.

Methods

This retrospective analysis included 336 patients from a multicenter registry who underwent T-TEER between January 2017 and November 2022. Anatomical features were assessed using transesophageal echocardiography to calculate the GLIDE Score, which ranges from 0 to 5. The primary endpoint was a postprocedural TR grade of mild or better, assessed via periprocedural imaging. Outcomes were compared between patients w
