Authors' conclusion

M-TEER effectively reduces MR to ≤1+ and improves symptoms in both aSMR and vSMR. Particularly in aSMR, ≥moderate baseline TR is linked to worse outcomes

Study context

Population
Patients with secondary mitral regurgitation undergoing M-TEER (REPAIR registry)median follow-up 491 days
Participants
915 patients
Exposure
aSMR vs vSMR undergoing M-TEER with PASCAL
  • aSMRn = 166
  • vSMRn = 749reference
Outcome
MR ≤1+ at discharge, technical success, NYHA class improvement, 1-year survival

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

MR ≤1+ at discharge, technical success, NYHA class improvement, 1-year survival (aSMR vs vSMR)

NYHA class improved in both phenotypes

P < 0.001
