Prediction of mortality and heart failure hospitalization after transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions: Validation of TRISCORE

25 Apr 2024

This study highlights the TRISCORE's role in assessing risk for patients undergoing TTVI. Despite limitations, TRISCORE effectively identifies high-risk patients, aiding decision-making in a complex landscape of valvular heart disease management.
