Stage-based approach to predict left ventricular reverse remodeling after mitral repair.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Although predictors of reverse left ventricular (LV) remodeling postmitral valve repair are critical for guiding perioperative decision-making, there remains a paucity of randomized, prospective data to support the criteria that potential predictor variables must meet.

Methods and results

The CAMRA CardioLink-2 randomized trial allocated 104 patients to either leaflet resection or preservation strategies for mitral repair. The correlation of indexed left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESVI), indexed left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDVI), and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were tested with univariate analysis and subsequently with multivariate analysis to determine independent predictors of reverse remodeling at discharge and at 12 months po
