Baseline NT-proBNP was independently associated with 2-year mortality or heart failure hospitalization after T-TEER.

| Outcome | Adjusted OR per log10 increase (95% CI) | P value | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Symptomatic alleviation · lower likelihood of symptomatic alleviation | 0.63 (0.48–0.84) | P < 0.001 | |

Residual tricuspid regurgitation (TR) ≤2+ at discharge, by NT-proBNP tertile
- Residual TR ≤2+ at discharge across tertiles 1, 2 and 3: 86.3%, 82.9% and 81.4%
- P = 0.040
30-day NT-proBNP trajectory and primary endpoint
- Higher than expected 30-day NT-proBNP relative to baseline independently associated with higher subsequent risk of the primary endpoint
