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.
Minimalist approach to tricuspid valve therapy
11 Sep 2025 – From PCR Rio Valves 2025
This session highlights the minimalist approach to tricuspid valve therapy with TricValve implantation, a contrast-free, minimally invasive procedure guided by transthoracic echo and minimal fluoroscopy. Clinical evidence shows reduced hospitalisations, improved quality of life, and encouraging mid-term outcomes, including smaller right heart chamber dimensions and reduced...

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...
The complexity of transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions
11 Sep 2025 – From PCR Rio Valves 2025
Explore the complexities of transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions through a series of case studies tackling challenging clinical scenarios. Discover therapeutic options, including TEER in patients with pacemaker leads, imaging strategies with ICE, transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement using Evoque and LuxValve devices, as well as simpler approaches...
Management of hostile access for TAVI
11 Sep 2025 – From PCR Rio Valves 2025
Access challenges are among the most critical hurdles in TAVI procedures. This session explores how to identify difficult access routes using pre-procedural CT, and demonstrates practical techniques to safely overcome these obstacles. Through real-life case presentations—including challenging femoral access with a shockwave balloon, carotid access, and...
