Effects of Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair Using MitraClip^® Device on Sleep Disordered Breathing in Patients with Mitral Valve Regurgitation.

ABSTRACT: Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is common among patients with valvular heart disease, and successful valve surgery could reduce SDB severity. However, data about the effects of transcatheter mitral valve repair on SDB are scarce. Therefore, mitral regurgitation (MR) patients undergoing MitraClip-placement were prospectively enrolled. Before MitraClip-placement, daytime sleepiness and sleep quality were assessed using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), respectively; and all patients underwent SDB screening using five-channel respiratory polygraphy. After 3-6 months, patients had a similar reassessment including: ESS, PSQI, and respiratory polygraphy. 67 patients were included (77 ± 8years). Despite normal sleepiness scores, 41 patients (61%) had SDB with apnea-hypopnea-index (AHI) ≥ 15 h before MitraClip-placement, of whom only three patients had known SDB previously. Compared to patients without SDB, patients with SDB had similar sleepiness scores but higher NT-proBNP values at baseline (4325 vs. 1520 pg/mL, p < 0.001). At follow-up, there were significant AHI improvements among patients with SDB (p = 0.013). However, there were no significant sleepiness score changes. In conclusion, the prevalence of SDB among MitraClip candidates is very high even in those without daytime sleepiness. MR patients with SDB have higher NT-proBNP values, which may reflect a worse prognosis. MitraClip-placement may improve the underlying SDB, which could be an additional benefit of the procedure.

Prevalence of Sleep Disordered Breathing in Patients with Primary Mitral Regurgitation Undergoing Mitral Valve Surgery.

Project description:BackgroundSleep disordered breathing (SDB) is a frequent comorbidity in cardiac disease patients. Nevertheless, the prevalence and relationship between SDB and severe primary mitral regurgitation (PMR) has not been well investigated to date.MethodsA cohort of 121 patients with significant PMR undergoing mitral valve surgery were prospectively enrolled and received a cardiorespiratory single night polygraphy screening using ApneaLink before surgery. Eighty-two of them underwent a follow-up examination including a follow-up single-night sleep study 3 months after surgery.ResultsThe mean age of patients was 65.3 ± 12.0 years. Sixty patients (49.6%) were female. The mean EuroSCORE II was 2.5 ± 2.4%. Initially, 91 (75.2%) patients presented with SDB, among whom 50.4% (46 patients, 38.0% of total cohort) were classified as moderate to severe. These patients tended to require significantly longer postoperative intensive care and mechanical ventilation. Among the 82 patients who completed follow-up exams, mitral valve surgery led to a significant reduction in relevant SDB (20.7%). The apnea-hypopnea index (from 11/h [4;18] to 4/h [3;14] (p = 0.04)), the oxygenation-desaturation index (from 8/h [3;18] to 5/h [3;12] (p = 0.008)) as well as the saturation time below 90% (from 32 min [13;86] to 18 min [5;36] (p = 0.005)), were all shown to be improved significantly.ConclusionThe prevalence of SDB is very high in patients with severe primary mitral regurgitation and may contribute to postoperative complications and prolonged intensive care. A significantly reduced but still high prevalence of SDB was observed 3 months after mitral valve surgery, highlighting the bidirectional relationship between SDB and heart failure.

Percutaneous treatment of mitral regurgitation with MitraClip device.

Project description:The percutaneous edge-to-edge repair of mitral regurgitation with a MitraClip device has been recently approved in Europe. The results of the randomized EVEREST II study showed a favourable safety profile of the technique. However, the efficacy in terms of regurgitation reduction in a population with predominantly degenerative mitral disease was inferior as compared to the results of conventional open heart surgery. Nevertheless, up to 50% of symptomatic heart failure patients with severe mainly functional mitral regurgitation are not treated surgically because of very high procedural risk. The registry data suggest that the minimally invasive and generally well-tolerated MitraClip procedure reduces symptoms and need for recurrent hospitalization and improves left ventricular function in inoperable subjects. The ongoing randomized clinical trials with clinical endpoints will further define the current role of percutaneous edge-to-edge repair in heart failure patients with mitral regurgitation.

Transcatheter mitral valve repair/replacement for primary mitral regurgitation.

Project description:This review outlines the first trial experience with transcatheter therapy for mitral regurgitation (MR), developed from the EVEREST II MitraClip trial in a trial population comprised predominantly of patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR). Subsequent experience with MitraClip and several other devices has been mostly in functional MR patients. At the same time, there has been ongoing experience with MitraClip in DMR, and a variety of other devices have been developed for catheter-based treatment of MR. Annuloplasty devices have been indicated for DMR, and the potential for transcatheter annuloplasty to be used, in conjunction with other catheter techniques, such as chordal replacement, as it is in standard mitral repair, is developing. Transcatheter mitral valve replacement will clearly have some role for MR of both functional and degenerative etiologies, when repair is not feasible or fails. This review will discuss the evidence base and future development of these mitral repair and replacement approaches for DMR.

PASCAL mitral valve repair system versus MitraClip: comparison of transcatheter edge-to-edge strategies in complex primary mitral regurgitation.

Project description:BackgroundThe PASCAL system is a novel device for edge-to-edge treatment of mitral regurgitation (MR). The aim of this study was to compare the safety and efficacy of the PASCAL to the MitraClip system in a highly selected group of patients with complex primary mitral regurgitation (PMR) defined as effective regurgitant orifice area (MR-EROA) ≥ 0.40 cm2, large flail gap (≥ 5 mm) or width (≥ 7 mm) or Barlow's disease.Methods38 patients with complex PMR undergoing mitral intervention using PASCAL (n = 22) or MitraClip (n = 16) were enrolled. Primary efficacy endpoints were procedural success and degree of residual MR at discharge. The rate of major adverse events (MAE) according to the Mitral Valve Academic Consortium (MVARC) criteria was chosen as the primary safety endpoint.ResultsPatient collectives did not differ relevantly regarding pertinent baseline parameters. Patients` median age was 83.0 [77.5-85.3] years (PASCAL) and 82.5 [76.5-86.5] years (MitraClip). MR-EROA at baseline was 0.70 [0.68-0.83] cm2 (PASCAL) and 0.70 [0.50-0.90] cm2 (MitraClip), respectively. 3D-echocardiographic morphometry of the mitral valve apparatus revealed no relevant differences between groups. Procedural success was achieved in 95.5% (PASCAL) and 87.5% (MitraClip), respectively. In 86.4% of the patients a residual MR grade ≤ 1 + was achieved with PASCAL whereas reduction to MR grade ≤ 1 + with MitraClip was achieved in 62.5%. Neither procedure time number of implanted devices, nor transmitral gradient differed significantly. No periprocedural MAE according to MVARC occured.ConclusionIn this highly selected patient group with complex PMR both systems exhibited equal procedural safety. MitraClip and PASCAL reduced qualitative and semi-quantitative parameters of MR to an at least comparable extent.

Current state of transcatheter mitral valve repair with the MitraClip.

Project description:Many patients affected with mitral valve regurgitation suffer from multiple comorbidities. The MitraClip device provides a safe means of transcatheter valve repair in patients with suitable mitral valve anatomy who are at prohibitive risk for surgery. We describe our early procedural outcomes and present a summary of the current state of MitraClip technology in the United States.We performed a retrospective chart review of initial high-risk or inoperable patients who underwent MitraClip placement at our institution after completion of the EVEREST II study. We examined the primary outcome of 30-day mortality, and secondary outcomes included extent of reduction of mitral regurgitation (MR), New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class improvement, length of stay, and major complications.A total of 115 high-risk patients (mean Society of Thoracic Surgeons predicted risk of mortality 9.4%±6.1%) underwent the MitraClip procedure at our institution between March 2009 and April 2014. Co-morbidities including coronary artery disease (67.8%), pulmonary disease (39.1%) and previous cardiac surgery (44.3%) were common. The device was placed successfully in all patients with a 30-day mortality of 2.6%. All patients demonstrated 3+ or 4+ MR on preoperative imaging, and 80.7% of patients had trace or 1+ MR at hospital discharge. NYHA class improved substantially, with 79% of patients exhibiting class III or IV symptoms pre-procedure and 81% reporting class I or II symptoms at one month follow-up.The MitraClip procedure provides a safe alternative to surgical or medical management for high-risk patients with MR and suitable valve anatomy. A comprehensive heart team approach is essential, with surgeons providing critical assessment of patient suitability for surgery versus percutaneous therapy as well as performance of the valve procedure.

Mitral regurgitation after transcatheter aortic valve replacement.

Project description:Patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) might have an associated significant MR that can potentially lead to left ventricular (LV) failure after procedure. Considering the specific alterations in the mitral valve in TAVR scenario and the widespread use of TAVR in recent years, it appears important to know and understand the anatomical, functional and clinical implications to develop adequate strategies for the future. Patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) have been generally excluded from randomized clinical trials, making poor the impact that associated MR can have on clinical outcomes after TAVR. Several factors must be considered whose presence influences the severity of MR. For example, the elevated prevalence of coronary disease with consequent ischemic MR may account for LV dilation observed at the end stage of aortic stenosis. Evidence randomized studies and registries suggests that the rate of concomitant moderate-to-severe MR in patients undergoing TAVR oscillates between 2% and 33%, and patients with moderate to severe MR may have hemodynamic frailty with clinical deterioration during mechanical intervention. Short- and long-term outcomes, including cardiac mortality, appear to be influenced by the existence of preoperative moderate-to-severe MR or by the postprocedural worsening of mild MR, generally due to adverse LV remodeling. The incidence and the prognostic effect of concomitant MR in patients undergoing TAVR requires specific attention as might trigger adjunctive strategy treatment which should be carefully evaluated in clinical trials.KeywordsMitral regurgitation (MR); mitral valve; transcatheter aortic valve; transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR)

Mitral and aortic regurgitation following transcatheter aortic valve replacement.

Project description:To analyse the impact of postprocedural mitral regurgitation (MR), in an interaction with aortic regurgitation (AR), on mortality following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).To assess the interaction between MR and AR, we compared the survival rate of patients (i) without both significant MR and AR versus (ii) those with either significant MR or significant AR versus (iii) with significant MR and AR, all postprocedure. 381 participants of the Polish Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation Registry (166 males (43.6%) and 215 females (56.4%), age 78.8±7.4 years) were analysed. Follow-up was 94.1±96.5 days.In-hospital and midterm mortality were 6.6% and 10.2%, respectively. Significant MR and AR were present in 16% and 8.1% patients, including 3.1% patients with both significant MR and AR. Patients with significant versus insignificant AR differed with respect to mortality (log rank p=0.009). This difference was not apparent in a subgroup of patients without significant MR (log rank p=0.80). In a subgroup of patients without significant AR, there were no significant differences in mortality between individuals with versus without significant MR (log rank p=0.44). Significant MR and AR had a significant impact on mortality only when associated with each other (log rank p<0.0001). At multivariate Cox regression modelling concomitant significant MR and AR were independently associated with mortality (OR 3.2, 95% CI 1.54 to 5.71, p=0.002).Significant MR or AR postprocedure, when isolated, had no impact on survival. Combined MR and AR had a significant impact on a patient's prognosis.

Functional mitral regurgitation: structural modifications with percutaneous valve repair with MitraClip.

Project description:BackgroundMitral regurgitation (MR) is one of the most prevalent valvular diseases in our society. Transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVR) with the MitraClip® system is increasingly used for treating this condition. The aim of our study is to analyse morphological mitral valve changes related to the procedure and its correlation with the degree of regurgitation at mid-term follow-up and with the combined endpoint of heart failure and all-cause mortality.MethodsA single-centre, prospective and observational study including consecutive patients admitted between October 2015 and October 2019 for TMVR was designed. The mitral valve annulus (MVA) was analyzed using the three-dimensional MVQ QLAB mitral valve quantification software (Philips; Amsterdam, The Netherlands). Clinical data was collected retrospectively.ResultsEighty-two MitraClip® were implanted. Control echocardiograms showed a significant decrease in the three measures: annular diameters, perimeter and area. Patients with functional MR had greater left ventricular and mitral annular dimensions and experienced greater reductions in anteroposterior diameter and mitral valve area compared with organic MR patients. The anteroposterior diameter reduction (OR 0.90; 95% CI: 0.82-0.99), as well as posterior leaflet grasping (OR 0.94; 95% CI: 0.89-0.99) were associated with the probability of significant MR recurrence. Posterior leaflet grasping and left ventricle ejection fraction were associated with the combined endpoint of heart failure and any cause death.ConclusionsMitraClip® implantation results in secondary changes in the mitral annular morphology. The magnitude of these morphological changes varies depending on the etiology of the mitral valve regurgitation. Posterior leaflet grasping and anteroposterior diameter reduction after clip are factors associated with relevant clinical and echocardiographic endpoints.

Selection of the Optimal Candidate to MitraClip for Secondary Mitral Regurgitation: Beyond Mitral Valve Morphology.

Project description:Secondary mitral regurgitation (MR) occurs despite structurally normal valve apparatus due to an underlying disease of the myocardium leading to disruption of the balance between tethering and closing forces with ensuing failure of leaflet coaptation. In patients with heart failure (HF) and left ventricular dysfunction, secondary MR is independently associated with poor outcome, yet prognostic benefits related to the correction of MR have remained elusive. Surgery is not recommended for the correction of secondary MR outside coronary artery bypass grafting. Percutaneous mitral valve repair (PMVR) with MitraClip implantation has recently evolved as a new transcatheter treatment option of inoperable or high-risk patients with severe MR, with promising results supporting the extension of guideline recommendations. MitraClip is highly effective in reducing secondary MR in HF patients. However, the derived clinical benefit is still controversial as two randomized trials directly comparing PMVR vs. optimal medical therapy in severe secondary MR yielded virtually opposite conclusions. We reviewed current evidence to identify predictors of PMVR-related outcomes in secondary MR useful to improve the timing and the selection of patients who would derive maximal benefit from MitraClip intervention. Beyond mitral valve anatomy, optimal candidate selection should rely on a comprehensive diagnostic workup and a fine-tuned risk stratification process aimed at (i) recognizing the substantial heterogeneity of secondary MR and its complex interaction with the myocardium, (ii) foreseeing hemodynamic consequences of PMVR, (iii) anticipating futility and (iv) improving symptoms, quality of life and overall survival.
