Summary
Explore insights from an 86-year-old female patient's case with TAVR since end-2022 who presented with permanent AF, moderate MR and TR regurgitation, and learn more about right heart catheterisation for patient selection, CT and CMR in tricuspid interventions, criteria for atrial secondary TR, and more!
Learning Objectives
- To appreciate the importance of the assessment of pulmonary artery pressure and right ventricular function prior to transcatheter tricuspid valve intervention
- To understand the relative roles of multimodality imaging and right heart catheterisation
- To apply this knowledge in relation to an individual clinical case
