Advancing the management of tricuspid valve disease: diagnosis, imaging, and intervention

Summary

This session explores tricuspid valve disease, focusing on the determinants and severity of tricuspid regurgitation, right heart assessment, and available treatment options. Through case studies and expert discussions, learn about imaging techniques, the heart team approach, and best practices for selecting patients for transcatheter tricuspid valve intervention (TTVI).

Learning Objectives

  • To understand the determinants and physiology of tricuspid regurgitation
  • To review the quantitation of tricuspid regurgitation severity
  • To recognise the importance of an assessment of right heart size and function
  • To know the different management options for patients with tricuspid regurgitation
