mitral regurgitation (MR)

Classification
Pathology
- abnormal systolic back flow of blood from the left ventricle into the left atrium, resulting from imperfect closure of the mitral valve
Clinical manifestations
Diagnostic procedures
- transthoracic echocardiagram
- regurgitant oriface area
- regurgitant volume
- regurgitant fraction
- transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) if transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) inadequate[3][6]
- discrepancy between clinical findings & TTE characterization of mitral regurgitation
- repeat echocardiography indicated when there is a change in clinical status (even if most recent echocardiogram was 3-4 months prior)[3]
Complications
- atrial fibrillation* associated with long-term mortality in patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation[9]
* paroxysmal atrial fibrillation or persistent atrial fibrillation
Management
- see acute mitral regurgitation &/or chronic mitral regurgitation
- consensus decision pathway[7]
- if discrepancy between clinical findings & TTE characterization of mitral regurgitation, TEE indicated prior to surgery[3]
- percutaneous repair of severe mitral regurgitation due to reduced LVEF with MitraClip device of no benefit[8]
- transcatheter mitral valve repair with 5-year advantage over medical care for patients with moderate-severe mitral regurgitation[10]
- surgery improves survival in patients with atrial fibrillation[9]
