Invasive Hemodynamics and Risk Stratification in T-TEER: Moving Beyond ESC Thresholds - EuroTR Registry Insights

Circ Cardiovasc IntervPublished Secondary analysis of the EuroTR registry

Authors' conclusion

In patients undergoing transcatheter tricuspid valve edge-to-edge repair, invasive hemodynamics-especially elevated PCWP-are independently associated with early patient-centered outcomes and late adverse clinical events. Despite overall improvement of the functional status and no impact on residual tricuspid regurgitation, patients with higher mean pulmonary artery pressure or PCWP benefit less.
