Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) guided by intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) under conscious sedation is safe for severe pulmonary hypertension (PH) patients. This approach significantly reduces pulmonary pressures and improves symptoms.
Area of Science:
- Cardiology
- Interventional Cardiology
- Pulmonary Hypertension
Background:
- Severe pulmonary hypertension (PH) poses a significant risk for left-sided valve replacement.
- Patients with PH may experience decompensation following traditional valve surgery.
