📽️ How does #echocardiography impact transcatheter procedure outcomes? What key tips should an #echocardiographer keep in mind? @alcantaramonica and @alexsfelixecho break it down in the Echo Workshop at #PCRRioValves.

💡 A rare very interesting case: persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) + right superior vena cava (RSVC) atresia --> challenging CRT-D implantation

⭐ Echo:
- Dilated coronary sinus
- Bubble test (agitated saline solution) via the left antecubital vein: bubbles first in the coronary sinus and then in the right atrium --> PLSVC

⭐ CT-scan + venography:
- Right superior vena cava (RSVC) atresia with the right brachiocephalic vein drained directly into the persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC)
- PLSVC drained directly into the coronary sinus

⭐ Very challenging CRT-D implantation via left subclavian vein.

New multicenter registry data in #JACCImaging including > 3700 patients with isolated moderate-to-severe degenerative MR (DMR) on the prognostic impact of pulmonary hypertension (PHTN) measured by Doppler echocardiography.
https://t.co/aKLyFAbSwH

Key messages:
- SPAP response to the significant DMR is heterogeneous: 25% had classic severe PHTN (SPAP ≥ 50 mm Hg), and 30% had moderate PHTN (ie, 35-49 mm Hg).
- excess mortality emerges for SPAP levels much below classical thresholds, with moderate PHTN (35-49 mm Hg) independently associated with excess mortality under medical management, which is eliminated after surgical correction of DMR.
- severe PHTN (SPAP ≥ 50 mm Hg) is associated with more severe excess mortality, which is attenuated but not suppressed after surgical correction of DMR.
- SPAP by Doppler is not just a surrogate for DMR severity, but is incremental to the Doppler EROA, RVol, and clinical characteristics in predicting outcome -> it is pivotal to obtain SPAP during #echofirst throughout the spectrum of DMR severity.

In conclusion, consider moderate PHTN (35-49 mm Hg) in the decision-making for early surgical repair in patients with severe DMR to restore their life expectancy.
