Summary
Curious about managing multivalve disease in the absence of robust clinical evidence? This video is a must-watch!
You'll explore the latest strategies for assessing and treating this condition (including advanced multimodality investigations like echocardiography, magnetic resonance and cardiac catheterisation), and learn how to evaluate cardiopulmonary interactions and how to identify high-risk patients to ensure best clinical outcomes.
Learning Objectives
- To appreciate the frequency of multivalve disease and its association with poor clinical outcomes
- To understand the need for comprehensive multimodality investigation, including assessment of the pulmonary circulation and right ventricular function
- To learn how to identify high risk patients and instigate measures that will ensure best clinical outcomes
