Background:
The effect of residual pulmonary hypertension (PH) on clinical outcomes in patients with secondary mitral regurgitation (MR) after transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) remains unexplored.
Methods And Results:
We analyzed 62 patients with secondary MR who underwent TEER. In 32 (51.6%) patients with residual PH after TEER, adverse clinical events were observed more frequently compared with those without residual PH. Multivariate analysis confirmed residual PH as an independent predictor of all-cause death or hospitalization for heart failure.
Conclusions:
In patients with secondary MR, residual PH after TEER is an independent predictor of adverse clinical outcomes.
