Ring Versus Suture Annuloplasty For Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation In Rheumatic Mitral Valve Diseases

March 22, 2016 updated by: Marisha Aryal, Shahid Gangalal National Heart Centre

Comparison Between Outcomes Of Ring And Suture Annuloplasty For Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation In Rheumatic Mitral Valve Diseases

This study aims to compare whether De Vega's Suture annuloplasty is equally effective in reducing the progression of Functional Tricuspid regurgitation as that claimed for Ring annuloplasty in Rheumatic Heart Disease patients with concurrent Mitral valve replacement.

Study Overview

Status

Unknown

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

Functional Tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) occurs due to annular dilatation in association with left sided valve disease and is more commonly seen than primary pathology in patients with Rheumatic mitral valve disease. FTR occurs due to increased right ventricle after load that leads to either dilatation or geometric deformation of Tricuspid annulus. If left untreated, FTR may worsen and increase morbidity and mortality.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame

Time Frame: within 3 months

Definitions:

  1. Improvement in FTR: refers to Mild or No TR
  2. Tricuspid regurgitation is graded as mild, moderate, and severe based on regurgitant jet area i. <5cm2 = Mild ii. 6-10cm2 = Moderate iii. >10cm2 = Severe
within 3 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mortality
Time Frame: up to 3 months of intervention
Mortality: Mortality within hospital stay or 3 months postoperative.
up to 3 months of intervention
