Congestion Patterns in Severe Tricuspid Regurgitation and Transcatheter Treatment: Insights from a Multicentre Registry
Authors' conclusion
In this large cohort of invasively characterized patients undergoing TTVI, congestion patterns involving right-sided congestion were associated with low procedural success and higher mortality rates after TTVI.

- Participants
- 813 patients
- Exposure

- Outcome
- Mortality
- Follow-up
- 2 years
