Mitral valve replacement and repair

Find all the latest content on mitral valve replacement and repair published on this website.

Building on the years of experience with TAVI, mitral valve replacement and repair is now beginning to take-off with a vast array of new techniques and options. Certain devices, for instance in mitral repair, are now widely used. To understand this complex field a knowledge and mastery is required covering the latest research, emerging tools, devices and techniques, vascular access; the role of adjunctive pharmacotherapy; imaging techniques such as echocardiography as well as understanding bleeding risks or patient selection.
