Changes in echocardiographic parameters and strain and outcomes following mitral valve repair: insight from new mitral regurgitation classifications.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Mitral valve repair is a cornerstone treatment for mitral regurgitation (MR), but outcomes across various etiologies remain incompletely understood. Therefore, this study aimed to comprehensively assess the outcomes of mitral valve repair across different MR etiologies, including primary MR, left ventricle functional MR (LVFMR), ischemic MR, left atrial functional MR (LAFMR), and rheumatic MR, by examining in-hospital, short-term, and medium-term outcomes, as well as the change in cardiac function through echocardiographic parameters and strain analysis.

Methods

This retrospective study included 911 patients who underwent mitral valve repair at a single center from 2015 to 2021. Echocardiographic and strain analyses were performed preoperatively and at 6 months
