Tricuspid Regurgitation Is Associated With Increased Risk of Mortality in Patients With Low-Flow Low-Gradient Aortic Stenosis and Reduced Ejection Fraction
Abstract Objectives This study sought to examine the impact of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) on mortality in patients with low-flow, low-gradient (LF-LG) aortic stenosis (AS) and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Background TR is often observed in patients with LF-LG AS and low LVEF,...

Zusammenfassung: | Abstract Objectives This study sought to examine the impact of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) on mortality in patients with low-flow, low-gradient (LF-LG) aortic stenosis (AS) and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Background TR is often observed in patients with LF-LG AS and low LVEF, but its impact on prognosis remains unknown. Methods A total of 211 patients (73 ± 10 years of age; 77% men) with LF-LG AS (mean gradient |
