In this study, a reduction in mean left atrial pressure during mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair was independently associated with improved clinical outcomes in patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation, but not in those with functional mitral regurgitation.

This large-scale, international study found that early haemodynamic valve deterioration occurred in 3.1% of TAVI patients and was independently associated with adverse clinical and haemodynamic outcomes during long-term follow-up.
The article explores the factors that influence long-term outcomes after TAVI, emphasizing the need for more research to optimize valve performance and understand the clinical significance of early post-procedure valve changes.
