Predictors of left ventricular reverse remodeling after percutaneous therapy for mitral regurgitation with the MitraClip system

Abstract

LVRR occurs in half of the patients after MC and is associated with reduced MACCE rates at follow-up. Combined information on residual/recurrent MR, baseline LVEF and gender predict LVRR after MC procedure. While residual/recurrent MR is the independent predictor for the absence of LVRR in DMR, in FMR only severe residual TR independently predict LVRR.
