AIMS: Although several treatment options are available for patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR), a significant proportion of patients remain ineligible for any mitral valve (MV) intervention. We aimed to analyse the phenotypic characteristi...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Classification and risk stratification in aortic (AR), mitral (MR), and tricuspid regurgitation (TR) remains a significant clinical challenge. This study aimed to develop an artificial intelligence (AI) system to assess valvular ...
BACKGROUND: Post-operative moderate-to-severe mitral regurgitation (MR) following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is associated with poor outcomes, yet the factors contributing to this complication are not well understood. This study ai...

The Robot-assisted Cardiac Surgery Council (RACSC) was established in 2015, and consists of the members of three closely related surgical societies and associations. The RACSC conducts the review and approval of applicant surgeons and institutions. A...
AIMS: Functional mitral regurgitation (MR) (FMR) is common in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and worsens morbidity and mortality, even when mild. The CARILLON® mitral contour system (Cardiac Dimensions, Kirkland, WA, USA), a mitral annu...
