Mitral valve - How to evaluate?
11 Sep 2025 – From PCR Rio Valves 2025
This educational session focuses on comprehensive evaluation of the mitral valve to guide clinical decision-making. Topics include risk stratification and patient selection for Mitral TEER, detailed anatomy review, assessment of primary and secondary mitral regurgitation phenotypes, advanced quantification techniques per current guidelines, and pre-intervention transoesophageal echocardiography...
Mitral valve - The role of the echocardiography imager pre and post intervention
11 Sep 2025 – From PCR Rio Valves 2025
This session emphasizes the critical role of echocardiography imaging pre- and post-mitral valve interventions. It includes case-based post-processing with comprehensive transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography essential for decision-making in mitral TEER, identification and grading of recurrent mitral regurgitation, and evaluations related to mitral annular calcification and valve-in-calcification...
Mitral TEER intraprocedural guidance
11 Sep 2025 – From PCR Rio Valves 2025
This session offers a detailed exploration of mitral TEER intraprocedural guidance through case-based learning. It highlights step-by-step techniques, including post-processing and key questions interventionalists face regarding residual regurgitation, clip insertion, and evaluating final procedural outcomes.
Tricuspid and mitral: fine tuning diagnosis and results in transcatheter valve management
11 Sep 2025 – From PCR Rio Valves 2025
This session focuses on refining diagnosis and treatment outcomes in transcatheter management of tricuspid and mitral valves. Topics include assessment of pulmonary artery pressure changes post-MitraClip, 3D echocardiographic evaluation of tricuspid regurgitation severity, quantitative improvements in imaging, and insights from single-centre experiences. Additional discussions cover bicaval...
